I'm currently running Vista Ultimate 32-bit and I'm wanting to know if the original Half Life 2 is compatible with this OS? I would like to play it prior to purchasing the Half Life 2 Orange Box package which I hope should be compatible with Vista since it's a newer release.

Thanks!

Just wait for the orange box it includes Half Life 2 in it. But I'm sure there's a Vista patch somewhere.

Extremetech's website, found by using Google:

"Steam/Half-Life 2
We didn't have any problems at all running the Steam platform, downloading games, or playing Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Lost Coast, or Counter Strike: Source. That's no guarantee that every game available on Steam will work perfectly, but it appears that all the games based on the Source engine are good to go."

I use to encounter these screens, try testing your RAM for errors, I discovered I had a dead stick of RAM after running memtest (I'm assuming your talking about BSOD's?)

Yes, it works fine. I have Vista Home Premium 32 bit and it works fine, so it should work fine with Vista Ultimate.
