Does anyone know where I can obtain a clean download copy of Gabriel Knight 3? I tried GOG.com but even with their downloader, I cannot find a copy of the game. I paid $5.99 for the game there and went to their support page, but no luck.

Have you logged in to GOG.com ? Once you have paid for the game it should "pop up" in your account under "My Games". Should not be any problem Cheers

What I mean is altho I used the GOG downloader and it supposedly downloaded the game to my computer, the file folder for this game is empty. I tried redownload but it still is missing. I have no idea what it never got put in there.

I'm sure it will have downloaded, Kootsie, but you just haven't found it. If you go to the Glitches Board and say which version of Windows you are using, someone will probably be able to help you quickly locate it

I am using Windows 7. Searching my computer produces no results to a possible location.
Any ideas?

Well it should be quicker to just use the "search" option on your computer and search for "Gabriel Knight" then everything connected to that will show. Cheers

Since you have Win 7 It should be in the folder "dowloaded files" located under "Favourites" were you also can see "computer" and "library" and others. Cheers Looked there. Unfortunately its not. Thanks for your help. I think this one is a lost cause.

I'll move you to Glitches where they can help you find the one on your computer.

Yep Marian...but the downloads folder for this game is empty. I've re-downloaded several times all with the same result. I have downloaded other games from GOG and this is the first time it has not been successful.

Thanks Jenny\
Using the Windows installer worked for downloading the game. However, now the game is asking me to insert Disk 1. LOL...
GOG tells me this is rare and I should now get a zipped file that will allow me to bypass the disk request.
New problem is finding this zipped archive. Ack..too much trouble.
Thanks to my GB friends for all the help. I may work on this again later.

The windows installer option is from GOG.com as a download choice. It is completely downloaded.
The problem is that the version from GOG includes the requirement to insert the game disks. There is a workaround so I will try that later.
Thanks Jenny.

What "workaround?" Are you talking about this? http://www.gog.com/forum/gabriel_knight_series/gk3_wants_me_please_insert_cd1Apparently the game doesn't «like» running on PC's that don't have an optical drive. Here's the solution that worked for me:
Simply install a CD emulation program (in my case, it was Daemon Tools Lite) and reboot if necessary.
The game launched with no problems after this.
