Hi Guys I'm buying a new base unit 2moro with windows 7 pre-installed just wondering if anyone's had any problems with installing & playing AG's on Windows 7 like Vista?

Not me - I have win 7 64-bit and everything has played fine so far

There's a thread over at www.gameboomers.com that tells of adventure games that can be played on windows 7. So far it looks ok.

so far only Moment of Silence and Shadow of Destiny have given me problems in Windows 7, MoS because of Starforce (Still Life had the same issue but was fixable) and I had to use a dual boot of XP to play either

So far as adventure games go Windows 7 has been pretty good. I even got some of the older leisure suit larry games to work and the one game by lucas arts where you play 3 astronauts in space I cant remember that games name I have to look it up later. The only game I have had problem with has been freedom force. That may be because I am using windows 7 64 bit or my video card.
