This weekend I installed Windows 7. I was using Windows XP. Does TW 08 work with Windows 7. If yes, is there anything different with the installation procedure. What about the installation of the course install program. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi...

1. Yes when you install TW08 game on win7 it should work, no problem

2. When you install the automatic course installer TWCaddie 08, you will have to run it as administrator on win7.

Follow the steps below:

To install Tw08 courses, you need automatic installer: TWCaddie08

Below is some TWCaddie08 help, when you are using Win7 or Win8 or Vista.
Instructions are for Win7, but same for Win8 or Vista.

First you have to know you have win7 32..... or win7 64 installed on your PC.
Below is link how you can find that info about win7:

http://windows7themes.net/what-windows-version-do-i-have-32-or-64.html

(or on desktop go to: Start....Control panel...system and security...and click: System )

When you found out go to TWCaddie08 download page on link below:

http://www.coursedownloads.com/extras/category.asp?id=1&gameid=11

( Or on top of Coursedownloads homepage go to section: Utilities.....Utilities and files for TW08....Course installation tools )

On that page you will see 2 download links:

when you have win7 32.... download this one:
TW Caddie 08 v1.5

when you have win7 64... download this one:

TW Caddie 08 x64 Beta

When you installed TWCaddie08 correct you will have TWCaddie08 icon on your desktop.

When you are using Win7 or Win8 or Vista, you have to run TWCaddie08 as administrator:

On desktop right click TWCaddie08 icon and choose: Properties......Compatibility....and on bottom check box: Run as administrator

And hit: Apply

When I right clicked on Properties, there was no Compatibility tab. Instead, I got the following. By the way, I installed TW Caddie 08 x64 Beta as I am running Windows 7 the 64 bit version. I am attaching a screenshot of the screen I get after clicking on Properties. Thanks.

Sorry, my mistake. I should have right clicked on the Course Manager icon on the desktop. I did that and the Compatibility tab is there. I was able to install a course. Thanks for your help.
