I am not sure how it happened, but the games that come with XP are gone (ie:
solitare, hearts, etc). They are not in programs, accessories, etc. I have
checked in add/remove windows components under
accessories/utilities/games/details and the games are there, but I have tried
over and over to check and uncheck and reload and it appears to do
"something" configure components but to no avail no games still.

Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

Hi,

Are the games really gone or just the shortcuts to them are missing? If the
shortcuts are missing, you just need to create new ones.
