Default Re: why winspww2 and not toaw3?

The "win 7" problems with TOAW just may be the same as for ours - and many other older games - the Win7 UAC problem with "managed folders".

Therefore installing it to a folder outside of the good old "program files" may well work for it, as it does with ours, and many other older model games. (I got the hint off some other games support forums, in the first place).

Make a folder like C:\games and point your older game's installer to there e.g. c:\games\TOAW.

Cheers
Andy
