InkBall gone

Hello there, and thank you in advance for any help that anyone can provide!!

I had some issues with my tablet a few weeks ago, and had to have the motherboard replaced. They did a clean install of Vista when they did that, and now, I can't find InkBall!! All of my other games are there, including Solitaire and Minesweeper and stuff like that, but InkBall is not among my games.

Is there anyway that I can get it back? I liked this game and want to play it! Can I get to a download or something of it? I had it originally, so I have the permission to have it, I think, I just don't know how to get to it.

Thank you for any help you can provide!!

Hi vileoxidation and welcome to Vista Forums

Have a look at the following Tutorial: Windows Features

The option you need to enable is listed under Games, but also check that you have Tablet PC Optional Components enabled (checkbox ticked).

There it is! Thank you very much. I had done that for "Games," but not for the "Tablet PC" stuff, so that must have done it!!

Thank you again, Dwarf!!

Re: InkBall gone

You're welcome, vileoxidation. Although Inkball can (and will) run on systems without a tablet added, it is primarily a tablet game and therefore this option also needs enabling (as you have discovered).

Out of interest, is there anything else that you have noticed not to be working since you had your m/b replaced?

Hmm...not that I can think of off the top of my head. It seems like everything else is working pretty much the same.
