I went into play one of the standard card games on my XP and the games folder
said it was empty. How do I get these games back?? I have no idea why the
folder is empty.

Hello.

To restore the games go to Control Panel, then Add / Remove programs. In
the new window go to Add / Remove Windows components, a new window will then
pop open if you double click on 'Accessories and Utilities' then go into the
'Games' folder and make sure they're all checked.

If they are already checked, uncheck them, OK, then go back and recheck
them.

Hope that helps. 8-)
