Vista - Basic Games not opening

01-26-2008

For some reason, all the basic games (freecell, solitaire, etc.) don't want
to open. I tried opening through everymenu and even executing the executable
file. I even saw them appearing for a second in the task manager, as if they
loaded and closed themselves. I have Windows Vista Home Basic in spanish. Any
help will be greatly appreciated.

You have probably something wrong with chipset driver. What about other
games? I also recomend Service Pack

Do you have the latest drivers for your hardware, including video drivers?
Do you have any other games that do run?
