I don't know if anyone of the active developers has a Win7 system, so this might be a bit sparsely tested. There are certain problems with the Widelands for Windows downloads and specific system parameters, that's why there are two Widelands packages for Windows, you might try "the other Windows download" at https://launchpad.net/widelands/+download, note that there is one using GCC, and one which requires C++ Redist packages from Microsoft, check which one you downloaded and try the other CMake is evil.

Running fine here on Win7 Pro 64bit with Phenom2 X3 and Nvidia 86600GT. Try the "other" version as QSC suggested, or one of my daily builds: http://widelands.8-schuss.de And when crashes happen, look into stdout.txt and stderr.out in your widelands directory or post them here (a few last lines).

Hi! With reference to the downloading of which package, i tried with both and it was exactly the same with both versions! i have in the compatibility menu of windows 7, altered it to be compatible with XP SP3 Edited: 2010-06-06, 21:49
