(SOLVED) freecell doesn't fly on windows XP

Win XP has it's own version of Free Cell...

Can you use that one?

this XPPRO is starting to tick me off! All my programs that worked on WIN200 for doing audio\video editing seem to screw-up quicktime movies (speeds them up - hyper).

dunno -- doesn't seem to be loaded... searching microsoft .com...

Do you have the games folder in your "All Programs" list?

If not, the install probably skipped the games. If you go to:

Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs > Add/Remove Windows Components > Accessories and Utilities > Details

Then make sure "games" is checked.

I'm not sure if you'll need the installation CD.

ok.
it was not checked, so i checked it...

frig -- it is indeed asking for the xp pro pack CD... ain't got it

tisk tisk

Dont worry--its not as much fun at all on XP, at least when I checked it the other night--seemed smaller (could change the size either) and just not the same. Could be just me, still playing with the new setup as well.
I dont have it here at work-we arent allowed to have it installed. Funny though, I could install it if I wanted to but, I figure--why go there? Besides-who in the world has a job with time enough to play? (And are you hiring )

:wink:

quinn
i'll hire ya to come here & install freecell on my machine -- just name yer price!
i've been playing the old version since v3.1 ('90 or '91?)

just in case the IT company spies are listening in:
i only play during my lunch hour.

solved the problem:
purchased a new PC, which has a working version of freecell on XP.
all is well...

'course we got a few other things, too.
