666: Will this run with Windows 7?

Almost certainly.
Posted November 30, 2009
100% Certainly.
Haha, no, one can never 100% certify that, because of the very much different hardware.
But I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit (retail version, from the STORE) and it's working great :-)
Here's a picture of my screen, to "prove" it.

Ok, thanks. I'll give it a try.

I didn't manage to run the game on Windows 7 64-bit, from support they wrote me Win7 is not supported yet which is a bit strange if Vista (which is basically the same) works.
I'll try compatibility modes in the evening but it's tiresome to always restart the computer with a button =)

It runs in ScummVM, which installs with the .exe file.
And since ScummVM runs on my win 7 64-bit, it should run on yours too.... if not, try installing it outside the program files folder.

Should work just fine with Windows 7 x64. The only problem is the incompatibilities with the Games Explorer (it messes it up).
As the poster above me said, try installing it outside the Program Files folders. See if that works.

What happens when you run the game from the desktop shortcut? Also did you right click on it and run it as an administrator?

As useless as it sounds - I just checked and it works just fine on Win 7 64bit. So it might not be the OS...

I am making a custom install tonight where the Games Explorer problem will also be removed.

Will post it on the general forum and here once its done.

EDIT: Probably won't be able to post the links due to copyright stuff.

I can't get Scummvm the program that runs Beneath a Steel Sky to work it gives me a window that looks like a dos prompt and then closes. What am I doing wrong. I'm also using Windows 7.

Sometimes the default ScummVM setup of some GOG games won't work on certain computers. I'd suggest downloading the latest version of ScummVM from this link,adding BASS to it, and running it from there. This almost always solves problems I have with ScummVM games on my Win 7 setup.
