Hello, new to the forum.
I'm currently using g-force v3.5.7(2006) on a pc thats is not connected to a internet connection.
I would like to upgrade to the new version. But is see in another thread that the new version needs to have a internet connection for installation.
How would I be able to install the new version without a internet connection?
Or am I stuck using the older version? I hope not.
Thanks for any help on this issue.

Ok...got a response from soundspectrum on this install question.
I am told that I can not install gforce without a internet connection any more because of software piracy.
This is unfortunate as I will be unable to purchase any more versions of gforce.
I run gforce on a workstation that is not connected to the internet. This workstation is used for 3D graphics and gforce...there for...no antivirus...no firewall...ect. Gforce flys on this setup...only 14 processes running. I feed audio from a 2nd pc connected to the internet, to this workstation and a stereo system. From the workstation, send the video signal to a 1080p hd tv.
So...you lose my future purchases from me because somebody else stole your app. Does not look like a good business model to go by? There are better ways to do this without limiting the way people install/run your software. It's like shooting yourself in the foot to keep from getting shot in the arm!
The sad part is that I was not only going to upgrade my gforce, but also to buy whitecap and softskies also for christmas. I loose...but you guys lose more...$$$$'s.
I respectfully ask that soundspectrum finds another way to protect your licence. Other than that...looks like that I'll be using the gforce 3.5.7 till I can not any more. Or use others!
I will come back from time to time to see if there has been changes to this install issue.
Thanks for listening.
