Lightbulb Eib On Vista Fix!!!!!!!! - INSTALATION!

I HAVE FOUND THE SOLUTION HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITH PLAYING/INSTALLING EIB ON VISTA!!!

so this is how i did it:
I have a desktop computer (with XP), and a laptop with vista...
I installd EIB on my xp and i copy the files from (C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Gearbox Software\BrothersInArmsEiB) to my vista on my laptop over my LAN. Then i installd my BiA: RTH30 on my XP and I copy the bia.exe
from (C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Gearbox Software\BrothersInArms\System) to
(C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Gearbox Software\BrothersInArmsEIB\System) on VISTA and i rename the bia.exe to eib.exe (make backup, and i think it's not nesecarry to rename it)
and the last step run your copyd bia/eib exe file!!!
Job done! It work's for me...
btw i have Windows Vista Basic Home

ok, like this!
ON your XP you install BIA RTH30 and BIA EIB
THEN
Copy the exe file of your BIA RTH30 to your BIA EIB and replace your EIB.exe with BIA.exe!
THEN
SEE if it opens EIB with BIA.exe! If it works Copy the EIB folder (the complite game) to your VISTA PC...
finishd... game works
