  I have just bought a new computer running windows 7 64 bit. Before this i had no probs playing under windows XP.

  I now get an error message on the login page that there is a problem with my internet connection and cannot conect to WGT server.

  Any one else have a problem like this ??

  Hi,

  To what exactly are you having trouble connecting to? If you are not seeing "play now" button, then likely you need to install flash?

  I have flash player 10 installed and what happens is i get the login page up, then i login, then i get
   
  Could not connect to WGT
  there seems to be a problem with your internet connection.
  A connection with the WGT servers could not be established
  Do you want to retry.
  Then i get 2 choices, RETRY / CANCEL
   
  If i click on retry i keep geting the same message

  Win 7 comes with 2 versions of i.e and you need to use the normal version not the 64 bit version.

   You can’t install Flash Player in Internet Explorer (64-bit). If you try to install Flash Player in the 64-bit version of Internet Explorer, the download fails, and you are redirected to a help page. Use the other "Internet Explorer" (the 32-bit version) to install Flash Player and view content in Flash Player.

  the link above should help you.
