I think a lot of different things happen. A straightforward example is that a program might check your windows version, but get confused by the return value of a new operating system. So using compatibility mode would tell windows to report a wrong version. Raymond Chen mentions some more things: http://blogs.msdn.com/oldnewthing/archive/2003/12/23/45481.aspx#45590 | |||
