has anyone tried the 4 disk version for the longest journey? Will it work also in NT4? Judy

I bought an Laptop with WIN 7 Home Pre, and I can't tell the difference between it and my last Lap with WIN VISTA, I can play the old two version of FAR CRY! the only problem I have is the Webcam and internet video flickers! I tried everything, might have to send it back to the factory!

P.S kind of wish I bought an desktop com, at least I can play games on my XBOX 360, but I havn't send many adventure games for the XBOX!

Hi All,
To all the Divine Divinity Fans, I may have missed it, if anyone else has tried Divine Divinity on Windows 7, 64 bit, but it's playing great, no tweaking at all. Played the catacombs yesterday and now on my way to Rivertown.
It's an older game but one of my favorites.
Kay

No, you didn't miss it, Kayc! I just haven't added it to the list yet. I downloaded the GOG versions about a week ago and both played perfectly for me also in my 64-bit Win 7. I will be updating the thread later tonight. Do you have the GOG version or the CD version?

Hi Draclvr, I have the CD version. I was so happy that it installed and played with no tweaking.
Next, I will try the old Might and Magic games. I don't think they will play though.
Thanks for all your hard work.
Kay

Thanks, Kayc... I'll add it to the first post. Let us know about the Might and Magic games - you never know!

I've been playing Tex Murphy: The Pandora Directive, downloaded from Good Old Games, on Win 7 64 bit. It's playing just fine, except that the audio in the opening video sequence stuttered a bit the first time. After playing into the game, I replayed the opening video, the audio was fine the second time, with no stuttering. Strange, but there it is!

I've also been playing Riven, downloaded from Good Old Games. This plays well except that the "Ctrl/S" command for saving the game doesn't seem to work. Instead, I've been using "Alt/S" to bring up the menu and saving that way.

I'll update my list on Page 13 of this thread.

Oh, and I had problems with Azada downloaded from Big Fish on my system -- the first Big Fish game with a problem. It played veeeery slowly and the cursor seemed to be hampered by some sort of dead weight.

Just finished playing Rhiannon on win 7 64 bit. plays perfectly. I guess no one has the answer to the question I posted earlier about TLJ with 4 cd's? Judy

I hoped someone would respond, judith, but I guess not. I HAD the 4 CD version and was going to give it a spin, but found that the first CD was cracked.

Hi Draclvr; I only had one game that broke on me. The way I acted, you'd think I lost a little puppy. LOL. Oh well, I'll give it a whirl in the next week or so, too many other things going on right now. Getting ready to go to B.C. in a couple of weeks for my granddaughters graduation.

Well, I tried Safecracker 2006 & it was a no go for me. Tried playing compatability xp3 & xp2. I even tried to install it in xp2. The problem was the video was all jumpy & wavy. Maybe someone else will have better luck. Judy

Well, this was a nice surprise. Schizm (the 5 cd version) works perfect on win 7 64bit. I'm half way through replaying it, & not a glitch. Judy

I've played Darkness Within 2: The Dark Lineage on Win 7 64 bit -- no problem after installing the NVIDIA PhysX drivers from the NVIDIA website.
