I got SPORE for christmas this year. I checked all of my computer's specs; I even ran a program I found on the internet to check my compatibility with SPORE. I have the minimum requirements. After installing it, the game wouldn't run. Clicking autorun.exe did nothing. Clicking on the game in My Computer did nothing. Then I got lucky and clicking autorun.exe opened up the game. It warned me that I might want to update my graphics drivers but the game could run at low res. It was open long enough for me to register, celebrate and turn my computer off for the night. Now the game refuses to run anymore. What am I doing wrong?

I'm running windows vista. Does that have anything to do with it?
