| | Vista Games OK, games are the least of my worries. But I can't help wondering why the games that "Help and Support" insists exist on this computer don't launch when I click "Click here to launch". I'm running Vista Ultimate (Microsoft upgrade) on a Dell E1705 laptop. I apparently don't even have plain jane Solitaire . . . can't say I'm surprised, because EVERYTHING so far has been a struggle, between Dell and Microsoft. |
