Installation Problems

Windows Vista and Windows 7 users: If you are trying to install from one of our older (pre-2007) CDs on Windows Vista or Windows 7, the CD menu installer does not work in Vista. You need to view the files on the CD and run the "gdsol.exe" file in the goodsol folder on the CD to install.

Installing on Windows 7: Our games work on Windows 7. If you are upgrading a computer to Windows 7 from Windows Vista or XP, you will need to reinstall the game from the original setup installation file. If the current version is a free upgrade for you (you ordered in 2005 or later), download the latest version. Otherwise, click here to download an older version.
