Hi All:

 

Glad to see SpellHoldStudios back on line.

 

Some questions about running BGT games.  I am probably the only one who does not know the answers.

 

1) Which is better for BGT games?  BIOS or UEFI. Told by Asus to use BIOS for programs older than 2005.
 
2) Does Windows Defender interfere with BGT games?  Told by Kaspersky that most antivirus programs automatically disable Windows Defender.  Kaspersky has been dumped because it caused problems with BGT.
 
3)  I have Windows 7 Professional.  I saw a comment in the internet that Windows 7 XP is better for older games.  Which version of WINDOWS 7 is best for BGT games? 
 
For those who need BG games, I got a copy of all Baldur's Gate games (Baldur's Gate, Tales of the Sword Coast, Shadows of Amn and Throne of Bhaal) from EBAY for ~$12 and no shipping.  Came on two DVDs and 2 CDs.  Works well.  They had around 500 left.

Now I will finish getting my BGT game together.
