Built in games for Vista

I was wondering if there was a download for the built in games that come in
the home edition, so that I can have them in my business edition of Vista.

If so, they should be there, you just have to go to Programs and turn on
feature. At least that was the case for enterprise

"By default Windows Vista Business does not install the GAMES (solitare,
freecell, etc.)

To install,

1. Open Control Panel
2. Click on Programs
3. Choose "Turn Windows features on and off"
4. Wait for list to show, install away
"

RE: Built in games for Vista

Thanks, this is one feature that is not well documented. In addition to the
missing games, many other valuable components can be installed.
