I think your problem come from the fact that STARS! write a .ini file in the Windows root directory. I beleive that is also where the serial number is embedded.

Because Vista forbid any program from witting anything out of the My Documents folder, that ini file is never written and you are boned. If I am right, it also mean that you will never be able to enter your serial key only once: you would need to enter it every single time you start the game.

Here is an alternative which could possibly work with Vista.

I am on a hot streak... Literally.
