there is a patch I could email you. I play Sanitarium on Vista. You can get the patch on any torrent site as well.

You can always just run it in compatability mode by right clicking on your shortcut to the game, going to the compatability tab, checking the box saying “run this in compatability mode for:” and selecting windows 95 from the drop-down menu. Works for me.
