Default Vista won't allow me to install drivers

It keeps saying "program not compatible with"

Can I over ride this? I can't install my any of the drivers in my new build

Hello
I installed XP only drivers under Vista by using the compatability options. I couldn't get my audio devices driver to install at all until I did the following. Right click on the driver's installer and change it's mode to XP Sp2. Once the driver is installed, if it still won't work, try and right click on the driver's exe and do the same thing.
Good luck.

If you can I generally dont reccomend it. Vista is a totally different design than XP in some ways....Its kernal is a totally different build. Using Old OS drivers can and could cause problems and not work at all.
