I've got vista, installed it to that folder, yet it doesn't come up on the game's map list when I try and create a game.

Any help on this?

Again, I've saved the map to both the core galaxy folder (where all the maps that come with the game are) as well as my users folder as described in this post, and I can not find the map in the game to load it.

If you have version 1.03 installed and the map was made using GalaxyForge, you'll have to edit the map file first (in Notepad) and change the line that says "version=0" to "version=1".
