Aside from just being more stable in general as a result of the patches PG has released over the last year, there's fewer variables users have to account for. There isn't an easy way to know if the ram fix has applied, no.
The biggest relevant change for the mod actually running between 2.15 and 2.2 is that 2.2 requires more to be run out of the mod's actual folder. That's about it. The game without the aforementioned EaW patches is also less capable of running it properly, hence why we've had to cut things like map previews and VOs from the Disk and GoG releases.
1. Are you running everything as admin?
2. Are you running in compatibility mode?

Do you still have a copy of 2.2 I could try. I could see if it works. Another odd thing is that I cant run the Batch file as a admin, it just flat out crashes. Lastly is there a way to check if the FOC vista patch has installed correctly?
