So I can play solitare for the opening of the games.
I can't my games that come with the laptop for work. I click Start, all programs, games, then Explorer games. The icons come but they won't open so I can play. Below the icons of the games, I get the editor, developer and the type of information. Help, please! Thank you
Hi CathyMartinez17
Thanks for posting on Microsoft Answers.
When you click on the Games folder, you see games listed there? I do not have a "Games Explorer" folder, so I'm not familiar with that.
Do you receive error messages when you click on the ICONS for games?
Are you the owner of the computer? I ask because if it's a computer for the family, for example, someone (Parents) can have Parental control settings and blocked games.
Lets try this to see if we can get one of the games to work.
Click Start
In the start search box type freecell - without pressing the Enter key or anything else, Freecell appears at the top of the list of programs? If so either press ENTER key or click the Freecell top under programs.
The game opened upward?
You can also try browsing for the game and opening it like that (they're just troubleshooting steps to help determine where the problem is)
Right click on the Start Orb
Click on explore
Go to the following folder (be it by browsing to it or it by typing at the top)
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games
Open any folder, FreeCell for example.
Once inside the folder, double-click FreeCell
The game opens like this?
Please post back and let us know the results

Pavilion dv7-6157 can be upgraded for the games?
I bought my son the Pavilion dv7-6157nr two years ago and he has problems with graphics on the high-end gaming, he plays. They freeze or crash. It has 8 G DDR3 SDRam, 2 generation Intel Core i7 2.2 GHz - 3.10 turbo and a radeon HD 6770Ms graphics card. Video memory it says "itchable graphics"... What does that mean? This computer can evolve in a way that would help the graphics? Y at - it a graphics card or driver upgrade? More graphics memory can be affected?
I'm tired of hearing that suck laptops.
Laptops are not really designed or constructed for the high end games. I doubt that adding memory will make much difference. Given that the two most important points (CPU and GPU) cannot be updated easily, it is a losing battle.
The only other options I can suggest are...
(1) a HP System Recovery to return the computer to a factory like State
(2) do a clean install of WIndows 7 and try to use latest drivers for chipset manufacturers
(3) buy a new computer that exceeds the requirements of game
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Why is compatible windows 7 with Medal of honor alied assualt and assualt pacifc and airborne, but not with Medal of Honor 10eanniversaire Bundle. and have xp and windows 7 can I play and keep the games on xp with windows 7 is installed
Hello
Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.
By design, the game is not compatible with windows7.
You can also check with the manufacturer of game for any version upgrade of this game, which could be compatible with windows7.Yes, if you have the dual operating system on your computer, you can play and record games on xp, start the computer in Xp and you can play the game.
I also invite you to visit this link to learn more about running the old programs/games in xp or vista compatibility mode.

Hello
I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but I should be able to help.Internet connection issues are widely available and vary from one case to another. Your question, however it seems that the most likely cause is that your computer's firewall prevents your applications to connect to the internet. You can check this easily by:1. go to the Start Page of Windows 'default Page of Windows 8.2 mouse hover in the top right of the screen then click on the search"" button.3. type in 'Control Panel' after a brief search you will see a button at the top of the page left labled 'Control Panel' click on this button and you go in desktop mode and allow you to navigate in the control panel.4 from there, click on the tab labeled "system and security."5. then, click on the second option in the list titled "Windows Firewall"6. the first thing you want to do is to check if you are on a "private" or "Public network" (a private network is usually the safest and although on this type of network, you are less likely to be vulnerable to attacks, Public network are accessible by anyone and give a greater risk).7 the right it will say Private Networks Connected / not connected and below that it will say comments or connected/not connected networks public. Most computer security settings differ based on your type of connection, if you are on a network audience of settings on your computer will be more strict and could prevent your programs connected to the internet. (Say if you are connected to a private network, you can probably exclude this.)8. If you are connected to a private network and your programs don't always work correctly in the top left of the window under "Control Panel Home" you want to click on the option "allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall."9 a list first your "Internet Capable of programs" quickly browse and find that you are having problems with and take note of the checkboxes next to them. If no box is checked, you will want to allow them to connect. Do this by clicking on the "Edit settings" button located in upper right10 you want then allow your program through the firewall, this by simply checking the box next to it. (Note that if the Public network that can leave your computer vulnerable or higher risk)11 after doing this click ok, now go back and try to run your program and see if the problem is resolved.12. If you cannot find your program, click the "Allow" another app... button and navigate to your programs (usually in the folder C: / drive in the folder programs.) and choose your program and adjust the settings to allow through the firewall.13 if this does not solve your problem, and the problem persists, try to go into Internet Explorer, by clicking on the gear in the top right and open Internet Options. Go to the Security tab and check how strict your settings are. You should be able to click on "Reset to Default" to solve this problem, if that's the problem. (Located at the right bottom)I hope that this helps if not let me know and I'll give you some suggestions.Thanks for your time, I hope this has helped.-Ian -
