Windows 7
Has anyone tried installing HOMM I, II, III, or IV yet on Windows 7? Do they work?
Thanks.
Thanks.
No, but I don't see reason why they shouldn't. At least as long as you have Windows7 Pro. (Coming with "Compatibility Wizard")

Choppy Homm4
Hi everybody,
I just moved to Windows 7 Ent (32bit), on a HP 8730w. It has a 512MB nvidia card and 4gb of ram.
Still, I have a problem running Homm4. The graphic is really slow and choppy, it is impossible to play; and in windowed mode...it's even worse.
I am running h4mod.exe in XP compatibility mode.
Any settings that I should change?
Thanks!

Re: Choppy Homm4
You may try to experiment with a graphic driver. The experiment is the right word, so be careful. Try older, newer version or the one provided directly from nvidia.Blueman wrote:Hi everybody,

You may also look for some extra settings and switch them off.

The initial posts here are encouraging, but there are several flavors of 7, are you using the home, the professional or the ultimate versions in 64 or 32 bit. Right now the professional version is required for the XP compatibility pack, but that verison is a lot more expensive than the home version. So is that XP add on really even needed?
