Running Babyz on Vista
Running babyz on vista is different to running it on XP/98 etc. On vista it will lock up or may not open at all, but there is a fix!
The first thing that you should do is Install babyz in My Documents or similar (not program files)
The second thing that you should do is download a ready made baby and save them in the 'Adopted Babyz' folder. You can find some premade downloadable babyz at d-r-n.com. If you have downloaded the game from Milk (penshaw-pineapple) there is a baby in the file.
You should then open the game and immediately go to:
'Options' -> 'General Options'
Untick Babyz Sounds On
Tada, the game should work fine!
------
Running ViaVoice on Vista
If you find that viavoice doesn't work try the following:
Download this pack from Carolyn's: boardwalkerz.com/carolyn/vvccr/index.htm
Follow the instructions.
When installed, open babyz. It might say "you have to restart", ignore it and continue. Click on the yellow mic button on the pull-menu and it'll say that it might not work properly. Ignore and continue.
If the above doesn't work, right click on the babyz icon, select properties, then compatibility options. Change it to 2000, it should work now!

Can I play with sound?
- PetzA should fix the sound problem!

Hexing from the Rez File.
A few people have problems with hexing from the BabyzRez on Vista. To fix this, move the rez file to another location, the desktop for example, and hex from there. Move the rez file back into babyz/resource when you are done.
Alternatively, hex from the baby file!
