Is there a list/thread/page somewhere depicting the current status of Windows 7 compatibility of GOG games from a practical point of view? If not one might like to invent one. Something like "reported to run on Win 7 without problems/ with the following rare problems...".

Btw. all the GOG games I played run on Windows 7. Battle Isle needed some privileges and The Incredible Machine is falsely scanned as a virus but otherwise everything is fine.

I set all of the files in the homm3 folder that have exe extensions to run in win98 compatibility, and I never had a crash after that.

I never had to change the affinity due to multi-core issues, but I use the HD (hi-res) mod that uses it's own exe to launch the game.

Jeffrey Dahmer is not exactly a household name outside of the US. If non-Americans don't get the joke, it's probably because they've either never heard of him outside Demolition Man (where they probably thought he was fictional).

With the games you are habing problems with all work fine on windows 7 64 bit here. As much as you can try and make games compatable the configuration of different computer parts such as motherboard,ram,hard drive,gfx card etc goes testing every single configuration is impossible.

Try contacting customer support they are very helpfull although you may have to wait a day or two but its worth it if they can give you a solution to your problem.

all the games i've bought on GOG (100+) work flawlessly on W7x64, including the 3 you mentioned. how the hell could Ultima 7 NOT work on W7?!? it's running in freaking DOSBOX for christ's sake!

I have more problems with laptops and that lousy "optimus technology" than the ones related to windows 7.
