Downloading of Moyo Go Studio 2009 is currently (as of a couple of days ago) FREE!

"This software is Copyright 2002-2009 by Frank de Groot and may not be redistributed in any way.
If you want to spread this free software, please just link to moyogo.com, as direct links will change.
Downloads found anywhere else are not trustworthy." - http://www.moyogo.com/

I do not care about what took place between some folks and Frank, that's in the past. I just want to share some great sofeware at a better price (can't beat FREE).

Perhaps read his statements on the website first.

Best wishes.

Wow, this used to be quite expensive, didn't it? I wonder why he decided to make it free.

Some days he charges, some days he deletes everything including source code, and some days he makes it free. Don't bother trying to figure it out.

Ima checking this out before anything happens :D - the blog statement was slightly odd and went on about something quite random. Made me giggle though :-?

Has anyone tried this yet? Safe? No hidden malware?

Always wanted to try a database, I've never really used one before.

I tried it. My anti-virus found nothing so I installed. It doesn't work on my vista computer, but there are a few things I still need to try before I am 100% that is doesn't work on vista.

I worried about the same thing. I ran it through a cheap virus scanner, though, and didn't find anything. It's the first time I read the entire EULA, too. He mentions not being responsible for loss of data a couple of times, but maybe that's just standard EULA talk...

Anyway, it works fine for me so far. I'm running it on a VM anyway, so if it screws anything up, it's not really a big deal for me.

Don't email me about issues under Windows > XP or Win > 32. Check "Troubleshooting".
All such problems are due to misbehaving 3rd-party apps or new bugs in MS Windows.

Works correctly on Vista.
I had to add an exception for DEP for the setup program. How to do it is described in the manual on the moyogo page. The exception is needed not only for AMD cpu's but Intel as well.

Ah you are right. It does work on vista. Just run the setup file as an administrator.

Here's instructions for Vista:

In Explorer, right click "Computer". Choose properties.
Click "Advanvced system settings".
Choose the "Advanced" tab.
In Performance section, click "Settings".
In "Performance Options" dialog, choose "Data Execution Prevention" tab.
Select "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select:"
Click "Add..." button. Browse to the "Setup2009.exe" program (the main install).
Select Open, ok, apply or whatever it takes. You will be prompted to restart the computer.
Restart computer.
Start the Setup2009.exe program.
Install away...

You might need to add the databases as exceptions as well if you are going to install those. I haven't tried those so I don't know.

Hi,

works on Windows 7 64 bit.

What you can try as well:
Right click Setup2009.exe, choose properties, select tab compatibility and
choose Windows XP (Service Pack 2) and say OK. Installation and starting MoyoGo
should then be no problem. Choosing compatibility mode Windows XP (Service Pack 3) instead might work as well.
Uninstall MoyoGo before you do that.
(Right clicking Setup2009.exe and choosing treatment of compatibility problems will do pretty much the same
thing.)

Cheers

Hi,

the author of MoyoGo famously wrote in rec.games.go during an exchange with a current forum user who writes about Macs:
"The Apple Macintosh is an overpriced and underpowered machine suffering from a chronic lack of software".

Sounds like "No!". (It's a no.)

Cheers
