Re: Vista Games

Seems to randomly happen on some Vista computers. I wouldn't worry about it.
Check the start menu first, and try to run the games from there under
programs. If you don't see them there, and you're looking for the standard
games that come with Vista, try to go into "Programs and features" in the
control panel, remove the games (if they're listed), and add them again.
This usually restores shortcuts.
