Hi Everyone,
I have windows 7 pro. I did play this game on this computer with no problems. At some point I got a bad virus and reformatted back to factory settings. I never had luck useing system restore.
Virus will often hide in restore points and re-infect from system restore. Getting rid of restore points is often a first step to getting rid of a virus.
How ever I know nothing about this company.
GOG is a reputable company.
Along with Steam, it's one of the main sources of downloadable games. GOG's specialty is with older games while some newer games are only offered at Steam.
Unlike Steam, you don't need a "client" to download, install, or run the game with GOG. There is no "client" you have to set to "offline mode" if you don't want to be hooked to the Internet while playing. There is no "online activation" needed to run a game from GOG.
GOG does have a downloader, but it's optional -- you have the choice of whether or not to use it. I don't use the downloader, but I think Draclvr does.
Yes.
Any opinions on GOG or help getting this game running would be great.
I like GOG and use it almost exclusively.
Have you tried
all different compatibility modes with your game?
Sometimes Windows 2000 or NT compatibility works better than Windows 95 or 98 compatibility.
I don't have any experience with running Return to Krondor specifically. GOG does tweak games to make them more compatible with newer operating systems.
