Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - Technical Issues DOS:EE - Doesn't work on Vista x64?

I was rather looking forward to this game since playing the original version (on the same ancient, but powerful, computer running Windows Vista x64), but it seems that according to the error I'm getting when I try to run the game (and the advertised min. specs) that the game will not run on my operating system, which again managed to run the original game just fine.

The error is:

Looking a bit further into it, it appears that the 'TryAcquireSRWLockExclusive' procedure is only available to Windows 7 and up.

Would anyone from Larian please confirm this or offer any suggestions for making it work? Short of upgrading to a more recent version of Windows, that is.

Thanks!
