So yeah, now we have the shape of it exactly. Vista RTM is kind of a weird, transitional OS that resembles Windows 7 but lacks SRWLock stuff and still uses critical sections, plus it only has DirectX10 and not DirectX11. Vista SP2 with platform update and such is so absurdly close to Windows 7 that it's better to target Windows 7 RTM when trying to compile stuff for it.

Problem is, targeting 7 SP0 will make the binaries’s minimum subsystem version NT 6.1 to run, meaning I’d either:

A) have to modify the binaries to make the minimum subsystem version NT 6.0 (hacky) B) make an app that spoofs Vista as NT 6.1 (even more hacky)
