Vista Native Game Problem

I am using Windows Vista Ultimate 64. The native games don't seem to work. I click on Mahjong Titans or any of the other games and nothing happens. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

Re: Vista Native Game Problem

Thanks for your reply! I checked those links above and didn't find anything. I found a link that has something to do with my problem, but I am not sure how to do what they are saying: Help Please - Native games don't work in Media Center
Thanks!

Re: Vista Native Game Problem

I have also tried to go into the media center to access games like mahjong titans and nothing happens. I checked the game links in windows to make sure the software is located where it should be and it is. All of the games I have put on my computer work. Thanks again!

Re: Vista Native Game Problem

If you go into C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games all the included games are in that folder. Can you run any of them from inside that folder?

Re: Vista Native Game Problem

I thought i would post this for some help
if you have a game that is not compatible with your computer check and see if it is on steam or a program made by Microsoft called games for windows live if its on there either sell or return your game then by it on one opf those programs and your computer should run better than how it was on the disk or it should be able to run period!

Re: Vista Native Game Problem

Thanks for your reply. I checked and the games are in the program files/microsoft games folder where they are supposed to be. I tried running the games from there and they still don't work. I posted a reply with a link to another thread about fixing the registry, not sure how to do it though. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: Vista Native Game Problem

If you post your system specs il help you update your drivers, runtime libraries etc which could fix the problem. Just tell us what graphics card you have if its a desktop PC or the name of your laptop.
