Free cell error in Windows 98
« on: October 23, 2004, 09:20:09 PM »
I am running Win 98 and my freecell is giving me an error message, "Freecell has caused a general protection fault in module Cards.dll". I have an option to close or ignore. If I ignore, the card count is like 300 or so and there are duplicates of the same card. I have tried to remove games in "Add & remove" also to reboot before reinstalling. I've also extracted the cards.dll file in SFC. Any reasonable advice would be greatly appreciated. By the way, reinstalling Windows doesn't help.

Overwriting Windows is never a good idea.

Scan for viruses, trojans and spyware.

 ::)  Hi.  Here is a suggestion that you might try.   Go to Control Panel... Add/Remove...Windows setup...Games.. clear the box...reboot..  then do the same thing and check the box.  It will probably ask you to insert the 98 disk and then it will re-install the games for you.  Maybe you have already done this, if so just ignore this post.    Hope this helps.     Ben.....    ;D
