Vista question about "compatibility mode" and "safe mode".

Sorry for posting a Vista question in the XP section, but I just dont know
where is the vista newsgroup or if it exists.

Anyway, my problem is im trying to run a program which can only run under
two conditions:
1) Can only run under windows XP.
2) Needs to run in safe mode to work correctly.

The first problem I can solve it by simply runing the program under
compatibility mode (so it thinks its running under XP SP2). but the problem
is that in Safe Mode I can't use change the compatibility mode because the
option is greyed out.

So my question is, is there any other way to use compatibility mode while in
Safe mode? like from the command line?

Many thanks in advance.

P.D:
If there is an MS Vista newsgroup plz do post the link.

As you are using the web interface it's under the SAME place as the XP
groups - English-Windows-Vista!!!!!!!

(snip multipost)

Apparently you found the Vista newsgroups because this identical question is
posted in one of them.
