Vista - "Not Responding"

I cant open any of the games like solitaire, minesweeper, etc.
I just get alot of noise like cockroaches crawling all over
and a "Not responding".
When i click on the [x] to close the box, i get the window offering
to search for a problem but nothing happens there either.
Oh, i have Home Premium 64

Just modifying my message with a little more detail:
