if you have a look back in the forum there is a topic I think by uturn that explains installing and running in vista

[hampton66]

i open the shortcut then the stockcar heat 08 where the metal hits the concrete... kiwi sim racing comes up and nascar heat folder opens and stays open and stockcar 08..... goes away

If not. Try re-downloading everything, following the instructions carefully.

When you go to open the game right click on the shortcut- run as administrator and approve of it then it should work

Hope this helps

Cheers

Hi Dylan
One of the quickest possible fixes you could do would be to upgrade your PC to Windows 7. We had all sorts of weird issues trying to run Stockcar Heat on Vista. Any other unrelated problems you may be having will possibly also disappear once you have converted. Your PC will also run faster and more efficiently I'm sure. If you click on 'START' then 'CONTROL PANEL' then 'System and Security' then 'See the name of this computer' it will tell you which version of Vista you have i.e 'Home premium' or 'Ultimate' etc and also whether it is 32-bit or 64-bit. You can then make sure you purchase the correct upgrade version.

hope this makes sense..

right click and run as adminstrator

Push enter untill it opens up stockcar heat 08 and then a tab will come up down the bottom of the screen make sure that tab is selected and hit enter, this should open up your game.
