Re: XP games to Vista


Dear All,
Not long ago, I had to change my pc's HD.
After installing my original windows XP PRO,
all went well. However, later I found out that
the games in
c:\Program Files\MSN Gaming Zone\windows
directory will not run any longer.
I tried to run backgammon and it pops
up a banner saying:
"Backgammon is unable to start. Close some other programs and try
again, or try reinstalling Backgammon using Add/Remove Programs in the
Control Panel"

1 - I have 2GB of ram and no other apps are running.
2. I tried the Add/Remove programs, and there is NOTHING there to help
me re-install it - unless of course
I am not looking in the right place.

Any help to fix this will be grrreatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Jago
