dvincy79: oh boy, Vista. Never used it so I can't help you but it gets brought up here. If it works, I have no clue. Most games require a patch to run on Vista too. They're usually on the game's website.
are there other tool i can use beside atlas
Basically, you won't be playing any Japanese games without the language support, AGTH/Atlas or no AGTH/Atlas.
But to answer your question, you can try Oh Text Hooker instead of AGTH but it uses Babelfish and it hasn't been updated in two years. You're better off pasting the text AGTH grabs into Excite's translator and reading it that way (I believe Excite uses Atlas too. It's nice for grabbing text of Japanese websites).
