Good luck... Vista's just about killed everything for now. You would of been better off with XP or Dual Booting.

So what are you saying? I can't play this with Vista?

What in the world is a "Starcraft campaign start up kit" anyway?

It is an application (.exe) file.
Example: let's say i want to play the L.O.T.C. maps and i want the cool sounds and the cool unit protraits then i need a file which i download from here. Get it?

Sorry for not explaning good enough.

Oh, the campaign's EXE, well, like I mentioned before as far as I know at the moment, there is no way to go around this issue without Dual Booting both Vista and any OS lower than Vista. You could attempt to extract the contacts of the EXE into the StarCraft folder as well.

Hmm... I think I will just play them on my old PC which has good old Windows XP.
