MS entertainment packs

I wish I had the pack entertainment included with Vista for my xp machines. I tried to find on the microsoft site and gave up.

How can I get the games?

Hi Wufiter,

It is only available through buying with Vista.

If you have a CD/DVD, let me know as we can find maybe.

Thank you

  • Best of Windows Entertainment Pack (BOWEP)

    How can I get my best of Windows Entertainment Pack (BOWEP) to operate on 64 or 32 bit Vista

    Hi croysterjr,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    The best of Windows Entertainment Pack only works on operating systems prior to Windows 95.

    However as a work around you can try to run the game in compatibility mode in Windows Vista.

    To change the settings for compatibility manually for a program, right-click the program icon, click Properties, and then click the compatibility tab.

    For more information, see the link below.

    Hope this information is useful.

    Let me know if it worked.

    All the best!

  • Canyon.Mid and the challenge of the chip in the best of Windows Entertainment Pack

    I Challenge the Chip of the Windows Entertainment Pack and try to play the third song (canyon.mid). I have it in the same directory as chips.exe, but nevertheless chips.exe will play only chip01.mid and chip02.mid, but not canyon.mid as initially in the BOWEP on my old PC.

    I tried using CCHack.exe (part of the CCTools package) so he could play all 3 songs, but for some reason canyon.mid is not recognized. Do I have the file in the right place?  Should it be elsewhere rather than the same directory as chips.exe?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I remember Challenge of Chip, it was a great game for Windows. In any case, canyon.mid should be located in the directory "Windows" for the game to recognize it-city of wikipedia:

    For the Windows version, original soundtrack of the game has two called 'chip01.mid' and 'chip02.mid' looping midi tracks. If "canyon.mid" is located in the Windows directory, the game alternates between the three songs.

  • Receiving the message: "this disc is not compatible with my Windows 7", when you try to use a USB floppy drive to load Microsoft Entertainment pack.

    Original title: cannot install Microsoft Entertainment pack on windows 7?  Can you help me?

    Have the old Microsoft Entetainment pack diskette... Bought a USB floppy drive and tried to load.  Received message that the disk is not comnpatable with my Windows 7 operating system.  If anyone can help?

    The games were made for 16 bits and last years run natively on XP.

    If you have Windows 7 Professional, you could install XP Mode and then install the games in XP Mode, the games were not heavy on graphics and should run ok.

    This requires that the XP mode will recognize the floppy USB drive...

  • Where can I find help for games of "MS Entertainment Pack for WIndows (1990). I can't seem to use them on Windows 7, but it can be used on Windows Vista?

    I have been using the following games; Taipei (Majongg tiles), Tetris, Golf (cards) and cruel (maps), which came with MS Entertainment Pack for Windows (1990) and who has worked with every version of MS Windows since 95 Windodws. I can use them with Windows Vista but I can't use them on Windows 7, I really enjoy these games and like to use them in Windows 7 and 8.

    "All Microsoft Entertainment Pack games work on Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8, but this only applies to 32-bit versions. The NTVDM allows 16-bit applications run in 32-bit versions of Windows. In the 64-bit versions of these operating systems are 32-bit applications be run in a compatibility layer in the kernel and layer 16 bit must be rewraped, this is why Microsoft has removed the feature. "(from Wikipedia)

    It's true. I tested the games ("Best of Windows Entertainment Pack", similar to the MEP even older) on 32-bit Windows 7, no problem. On Windows 7, 64 bit, they don't work (except if try you heavy workaround solutions like running Windows 3.1 on an emulator of BACK, then using this virtual operating system to run games).

  • where to go to get the tetris you had in windows?

    Original title: Chess Titans

    Thank you thank you thank you for giving me a chess program that plays a game perfect, every time, and can use my dual-core processor to beat me.  Wow.  It is a real feat.  In the meantime, have you considered putting any other _interesting_ games in Vista?  The windows had flipper, links, tetris.  It has Chess Titans and inkball?  This idea was what jughead?  Don't tie me to a maze of slackjaw catalogues.  Tell me just where to go to get the tetris you had in windows.  Tell me exactly how to download.  Don't tell me anything else. you have nothing useful to say anyway.

    Wow, you scared me. You can download "Best of Microsoft Entertainment Pack" (which contains your old Tetris) here:http://www.rhogue.com/tripeaks/tripeaks.htm, click on the "Best of...". "button on the left frame and choose if you want to download an installation program or the files themselves.

  • Klotski

    Windows used to include the puzzle game Klotski with the Windows Entertainment Pack. Please, where can I download this game for Windows 7?

    Update: nevermind. I could not find a compatible version of Windows 7 to Klotski, but I found a way to run Ubuntu as an application on Windows 7, which will allow me to play one of the linux versions.

    Hello Divya R,.

    Unfortunately, I posted here because I was unable to locate a download from third party on mine. I found that many versions of Linux, but none for Windows - not even an online version in the browser or a clone. I was hoping to find a version of WEP or just Klotski who will work on Windows 7, or can be modified to work on Windows 7. Advice research or pointers would be appreciated.
    I love Klotski. It is one of the few games little I found it is sometimes difficult, silent, easy on the eyes and does not mean to beat a clock. Perfect to relax with a game.

  • Pavilion dv6 7013 cl: about the computer hp laptop pavilion dv6 - 7013 cl/entertainment / it supports windows 10?

    Hello support,

    Please, could you tell me is hp pavilion dv6 - 7013cl entertainment notebook 10 64-bit windows support, isn't even available all the drivers to download for windows 10 for hp pavilion dv6.

    You have all your customer reviews, how fitting is hp pavilion dv6 7013 for windows 10?

    Thank you and best regards,

    Granite

    I can only tell you my experience - when I tried to upgrade my hp DV6 and had Win10 fail and leave it in an unusable state.  I'm waiting for the recovery discs arrive at HP, so that I can restore and get back to work.

    There is no Win10 at HP for the DV6 drivers - I checked.

    Before the upgrade, I would say that it does not support Win10 - as their tool to check upgrade reported no hardware or software problem, and that my machine was ready to be upgraded.

    But... This is obviously not true, or he would not have missed the upgrade.

    The first service pack to Win10 (only they do not call it a service pack, they call it a Service Release) will come out this week.  So I would wait until the month next to the upgrade.

  • HP TrueVision HD webcam does not work on HP Pavilion dv6-6179er Entertainment Notebook PC

    Hi, my HP TrueVision HD webcam stopped working a week ago. My laptop is HP Pavilion dv6-6179er Entertainment Notebook PC series. Its model number is QA398EA. Product number: QA398EA #ACB. Operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit Service Pack 1. When the webcam did not work on my Skype I downloaded Youcam, but it does not detect the camera as well. Thus, neither Skype nor Youcam can see the camera on my laptop. When I looked through the Device Manager, it appeared that the imaging devices category had disappeared from the Device Manager list. I tried for portable stop, remove the battery and press the power button for 10 seconds, as has been noted in this web site. However, imaging devices has not appeared. When I click Add legacy hardware (in the Device Manager Action menu) imaging devices appear in the list. However, computer does not detect the TrueVision HD driver, it detects some other driver out of place and combine it with imaging device. Looks like one of the two options: either driver webcam has been removed from the computer or a hardware problem with the camera. Is it possible that I can download driver HP TrueVision HD camera in my computer to see if it is a driver problem or hardware? Appreciate your help in advance. Thank you.

    Hi Sophie,.

    The generic Webcam driver is part of the operating system and not available for download. Looks like it's a hardware problem with the Webcam. I would recommend that you ask a local technician or call HP. You can reach HP Total Care at 1-800-474-6836 in North America or Start here if you live outside of North America.

    Thank you
