Im wanting to get the collection on Steam.
Wanted to be sure it will work on Windows 7 64bit.
I have a Nvidia graphics card.

Thank you for any help.

As far as I know it works, try one of the demos to be sure, if I'm not mistaken Overture demo is on Steam.

How is it not working? What is wrong?

Many people have run Penumbra on Win7 without any problems.

Oh, no. I meant the demo wasn't available on Steam. Sorry for the confusion.

But but but... I have it in my list Smile Hmm, maybe it is a beta version of the demo on Steam we never cleared for release, that would be funny.

lol. yea must be. Cause nether page on steam show a download for the demo. Im installing the demo now. Just curious if OpenAL can cause conflicts with other drivers or anything? Im not 100% sure what OpenAL is. I get a bit paranoid with drivers. lol

OpenAL is just a something that is used to access the sound card. The installer just copies a dll to your system folder. Nothing wierd. promise Smile

All three games work as they should on my Windows 7 64bit system. Oh, and yea, I'm also using a nVidia GPU, 9800GS, to be more precise.
