[BlackOps]

Forgive me since I am new here. I may be posting in the wrong area but seem to be lost. While I find this website a bit on the overwhelming side it is also extremely interesting. I am a very old former submariner (silver & gold dolphins), crewed on the George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Ethan Allen. I have enjoyed playing Silent Hunter III until my old "puter give up the ghost and now I have a new fangled PC that is running Windows 7, 64 bit with lots of RAM and a much better video card.

I have found that my version of Silent Hunter III as it is does not run on 7.

I have been interested in picking up SH4 or SH5 and downloading the latest patches to get some of the bugs out that I have read so much about.

I can't seem to find any place that tells me if SH4/SH5 runs on Windows 7, 64 bit systems. I'm not sure the best place to obtain these games either. Can anyone please offer me suggestions/ideas on the best way to go?

Thanks for your help.
