For Jim's games, they should generally be installed in a directory/folder
under c:\program files (x86)\ since think it makes windows7 64 bit offer a
bit of compatibility, etc.
Stay well

Subject: [Audyssey] Question About Installing Games Under Windows 7 64-Bit
Hi,
I'm getting my new 64-bit machine in a couple days, which will have
Windows 7 Professional installed (rubs hands in eager anticipation). While
I'm looking forward to working with a new, at least to me, version of
Windows, one thing I'm wondering about is where I should install games
like those from Jim Kitchen. As I understand it, there are two "Program
Files" folders when you have a 64-bit system. Can someone tell me which
one I should install games to, or does it really matter? Do you have to
use the Compatibility Wizard for the games to work, or are they usable
regardless?
Also, on a slightly different note, I've had an odd issue with Smugglers 5
running under Windows XP.
The game works fine, but I've noticed that when I quit, the dinging noise
you hear if you press a wrong key appears to be disabled until the
computer is restarted. It's a minor thing, I know, but I like to have all
my system sounds working. I'm just wondering if anyone has had this issue
when playing the game under Windows 7?
Thanks.
Yours Sincerely,
Kelly John Sapergia
