I need help installing The 7th Guest in WINDOWS XP. When I install 7th Guest it get's as far as the settings prompt then as soon as I hit enter to accept the settings the program jumps back to windows. I'v already downloaded the t7gwin patch but I cant install 7th guest in order to apply it. Someone please help.

Run the installer (7th Guest-disc 2) from a DOS window (Start/Run/Cmd), which copies the files to the c:\Id\t7g folder. Then copy the downloaded file's content (extracted from the t7gwinnv.zip file) to the c:\Id\t7g directory. Double-click "C:\ID\T7G\v32tng.exe" to run the game. Alt-Enter toggles between Full Screen & window.
Note: After solving any puzzle, you should then click "Farewell" to manually save the results. Otherwise, the game may randomly crash, and any previous results would be lost.

how about on windows 2000 pro?

When I last played this on a 2000 (same applies for XP as well) system, I just copied the files off of both discs and used the beta directx t7g.exe file.

This file may be very hard to come by (it was a few years ago when I last looked) but I have it somewhere on my hard drive, and should you need it, I can send it to you, or upload it to my webspace and send you a PM with a link.

Let me know
