Hi Luti10.

I m back on the scene and want to test Windows 7 with SWOS and perhaps make another guide to running like my one with an amazing 12,000+ views.

I am going to look into it as soon as I find my Windows 7 RC1 DVD that s lying around the flat somewhere.

Managed to get SWOS Amiga Online to work on Win7.
HW is an AMD Phenom II 955 which is a QuadCore Proz....

Like on XP I made good experiences running SWOS only on one core...

1. get the launch.exe from here: www.heise.de/software/download/launch.exe/61185

2. Assuming your have placed your SWOS in C:\AmigaSWOS, so place the launch exe in this directory and modify your SWOS.exe like this:

C:\AmigaSWOS\Launch.exe C:\AmigaSWOS\ASWOS.exe /a=2 (Careful with Blanks in directorys - then you have put your path in )

This means, SWOS runs on the second, and only on the second core....
No compatibility mode needed. FPS are constantly on 50 FPS.

3. Go ahead and play. ADF  ;D

Had a bad experience with SWOS 96/97 PC version on XP SP3 last night. Couldn t get the thing to work through latest DOSBOX with the new D-Fend Reloaded project - even with imported known working settings!!

Reverted back to DOSBOX v0.63 and the original D-Fend and I m back up and running like nothing ever happened.

I ll look into it a bit further.
