In my experience it's not a problem.

Just be aware that your mods, save data, and config files are stored in a separate location from the game files - usually something like C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Progr am Files (x86)\dominions3. The AppData folder will usually be hidden by default but you can type in the path to access it or just create a shortcut if you expect to be browsing to that folder often.

I recently installed windows 7 ultimate in my desktop and i´m having problesm with dom3.... i use dom3 in a flashdrive and it works normally in my winXP netbook, but when i try to play it on the recently installed win7 of my desktop all places where you have letters (menus, etc.) appear garbled with random letters.... any idea in how to solve it? i imagine it is something to do with compability with win7 as it works normally in my winxp netbook....

I run Windows 7 on both of my computers and I play dom3 on both of them. On my laptop, though, it's really weird: Everything except multiplayer games and mods is in program files, while those two things are under User/AppFiles/VirtualStore...It gets annoying having to navigate there each time I want to upload or save a multiplayer file or put in a mod, but other than that everything works fine.
