I am now running vista and I get an error message saying that my hardware is not supported. Do you know of command to force SL to start under non-supported hardware?

There is a function in Preferences, that prevents the client from checking certain hardware, but it is not foolproof. Best way to deal with the problem, is the problem itself. Checkout the forums for posts on Vista/ATI/SL etc.
