Hi, Folks. We have been spending a few days attempting to get our games to
install and properly register with the Windows Vista Game Explorer. We
followed the directions on the MSDN article "Windows Game Explorer for Game
Developers" (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb206359.aspx),
building and linking in GameuxInstallHelper.dll. We have been attempting to
use NSIS and Innosetup as our installers, and making the correct calls.
We're seeing stuff take place when we call the DLL, but the game is not
showing up on the Games Explorer!



Could I solicit some help from someone who has succeeded in making a new
game properly show up in the Games Explorer?



Many thanks,

--Andy
