Have you checked with the programs manufacturer if it is compatible with Vista

1. Full screen is not supported when running a WDDM video driver. If you
have an XDDM video driver, full screen mode will work. (Not suggesting
that's the way to go... just saying that's the only way to get full screen
mode working -natively- in Vista.)

2. Sorry, have not input on that point...

Good luck,
