at first glance it seems you are trying to read from the cd drive. i haven't tried it, so i might be wrong, but i'd think they'd have some sort of copy protection on the game so you couldn't read files. maybe try navigating to your halo directory on the C drive, going to the maps folder, and reading from those (AFTER you backup the maps!!!)

maybe the prorams are having trouble running in vista? right-click the program's .exe, go to properties, and see if there's a compatability mode option or something of the like.
