From what I can tell you need to right click on the shortcut and check the "run as administrator" option. I believe that will fix your problem.

I think Spock is right, just run it as the administrator and all of your woes should go away.

What games are you trying to play? The odds are that they are not properly supported in Vista. You can always try running them in XP compatibility mode by right-clicking on the game and going to Properties -> Compatibility, and then choosing XP from the list.
