"Windows Vista is not an officially supported operating system for the release version of Lightroom 5, and it doesn't run on Windows Vista."

Lightroom 5 requires Windows 7 or Windows 8.

Unofficial workarounds exist online to get Lightroom 5 running on Vista but try them at your own risk. There will be no support if anything goes wrong.
