Summary: VISTA: Compatibility mode

Initial Comment:
I have to assign compatibility mode whith XP SP2 in Vista in order to run SummvmVM.

I have migrated my machine from XP to Vista, and when I migrate my ScummVM enviroment I got a crash...

Windows Vista SP2 Spanish (whith all mandatory updates till now 07/30/09), Intel Quad CPU whith 4GB RAM

Compiled under MSYS 1.0.11, gcc.exe (GCC) 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3) from trunk
Libraries : FLAC 1.2.1, fluidsynth 1.0.9, libmad-0.15.1b, libogg-1.1.4, libvorbis-1.2.3, nasm-2.06, SDL-1.2.13, zlib-1.2.3


To reproduce it (at least in my machine):

1) Start ScummVM whithout scummvm.ini (it starts ok)
2) Add games (it add them ok, and start them ok)
3) Use options button (global's one) whithout changing anything
4) Exit
5) restart Scummvm, it loads the gui but inmediatly 'ScummVM has stopped responding' crash

What I have found:

If I remove in scummvm.ini the global section it runs again.
If I put the compability mode for the exe it runs ok and I can keep the global sectin.
It doesn't affect running it whith Administrator rights, it crashes
If I run a target directly from commandline it crashes.

It is only me?
