Dear GAMS user, You can download your GAMS system through the world wide web at http://www.gams.com/download/winsys/setup.exe You will be prompted for username and password. Enter username 'winsys' and password 'cabir25' With the latest patch for the Internet Explorer the more convenient way of downloading using URL http://winsys:cabir25@www.gams.com/download/winsys/setup.exe triggers an "Invalid syntax error" / "The page cannot be displayed". If you have a slow or unstable connection, you can also download your GAMS system by pointing your web browser to ftp://winsys:cabir25@ftp.gams.com If your browser asks for a password enter: cabir25 Download setup.exe or all split files in the subdirectory "split". Detailed instructions for Netscape, IE and FTP users can be found below. In some networks firewalls prohibit the use of ftp. After downloading run setup.exe and follow the instructions.
