I haven't been able to use GOG galaxy for awhile now, a little while back it auto updated and after that update galaxy always fails to start with a "QueryUnbiasedInterruptTime" error from KERNEL32.dll. Im not an expert but I assume that GOG has foregone supporting Windows Vista with their recent releases. So I was wondering if there was a way to go back to an older version of galaxy and just have it not auto update itself so I can keep using it with having to update my OS. If not its whatever but the convience of galaxy is nice. Thanks in advance

Copied from Galaxy info page: "GOG Galaxy Client requires Windows 7 or newer. Also available for Mac OSX and soon for Linux. "

Right, I know they stopped supporting vista, I just wanted to know if there was a way to get an older version that did run under vista

Grab 1.1.15.13 from here and run it with the /runWithoutUpdating switch.

Probably ME users thought Vista was good! lol

(Personally after experiencing windows 2000, i went back to windows 98 until XP was released)

Awesome! It installed and ran, and said it couldn't be updated! Perfect! Thanks a ton JMich! That makes it so I can stretch this PC along a little more until the new AMD processors are released. Really appreciate it!

Oh and Vista is alright guys ;P Its been on this PC for 7 years trouble free so I've been happy with it! ^^
