game lockup

[dumbel]

Since I am four score in age,please don't criticize me for having a Dell 4100
desktop w/Windows 98SE,about 6 yrs old. It came w/ Freecell, solitaire,
Hearts and Minesweeoer pre loaded. Recently, the Freecell game locked up
after it appeared on the screen. A row of 8 cards comes up and the cursor
becomes inactive. The other 3 games are OK. Previous to this problem, I had
copied these games to a floppy. I get the same result when trying to run off
the floppy. Is there a solution to this dilemma ? I will gladly send a "Smiley"
to the genius w/the answer............Dumbel

Go to add/remove in control panel and go to the section for Windows components, then remove the games, then reboot and add them back in the same manner.

Thanx for the tip,GX1,but I already tried it, w/neg. results. the part  I don't
understand is that I madea floppy copy of the 4pak game B4 there was any
problem and I played FREECELL off of it OK.  It froze up @ the start of a game taking it off the hard drive. After that,the floppy would not work either.
This also occurred after removing Norton and installing Panda for virus prot.
