have you tried running it - sometimes vista says things haven't installed correctly when they have.

The game works fine with Vista. If you are having problems, ensure you have the latest Java and graphics drivers.

Also, as has been mentioned, the game will sometimes state an error in installation but the game will be fine. You can access it via 'Games' in vista (it doesn't install to programs like XP in the past), so if you can't find it, it should be there.
