mighti3000: Do gog support the games because Im still waiting for a response from them and they dont seem to post on the forum. I really want to get some of the games but Im worried that if I do Ill be stuck with broken games.
Yes GOG does support the games, usually quite well. Most of the time, you should get some kind of response from them within 24-48 hours of when they received your message. If they haven't done that, then you need to send a follow-up message. It sounds like you may have been a victim of the bug that bansama mentioned.
As far as the games themselves, nearly all of them work just as they are without any effort on your part. GOG goes to great lengths to insure that the games will work on modern hardware and operating systems. There are some exceptions, usually due to specific hardware or quirks of the OS, but nearly any bug that has been found after a GOG release either has a workaround that is posted in the game's forums or GOG has gone ahead and fixed it.
EDIT - I just found your post in the Giants forum. The problem you are having is a very well known one that also affects Vista and you have already applied the only known fix for it. What more can the GOG guys tell you at this point?
