Silent Bob at Auscong.com has produced a good article about how to get VC running on a Windows Vista pc. Havent tried it myself {spits at Vista} but it looks useful!
Read more here

Also Gaza found this info:

here maybe a solution for vc on vista:

Vietcong and Windows Vista

1. Foreword
2. Required Software
3. Changes on Vista and Direct X

1. Foreword

The main reason why Vietcong does not run with Windows Vista is simple: Direct X10 is detected as "vchook" or "direct3Dhook"

This Tut will show you how to play Vietcong with Windows Vista although we recommend Windows XP for the next one or two years.

The reason:

Vietcong on Vista with actual hardware: 100-200 FPS ( depends on map )
Vietcong on XP with actual hardware: 250-300 FPS ( depends on map )

2. Required Software

--->>DirectX Eradicator (Source: www.3dcenter.de/downloads/files/c...-eradicator.zip)
--->>DirectX 9.0c (Source: download.microsoft.com/download/4...2007_redist.exe)

3. Changes on Vista and Direct X

Download both tools
Install the DirectX Eradicator and delete DirextX from your PC
Reboot your PC and cancel the automatic new installation of DirectX
Install DirectX 9c
Reboot, you are able to play now ( Hradba and Dedicated Servers tested ).
Do not update to DirectX 10!

This Tut works with Windows Vista only and has been tested with following system specs:

CP AMD 4800+ X2
Board: Asus M2NS-NVM
Ram: 2048 Infenion
Video:GeForce 7600GS
OS: Windows Vista Premium

Aighhht!
;D
