How to get The windows 7 internet games work?

Hello Everyone Here!

As you all know in windows 7 original games, there are 3 games that require internet to play these games. These games are:



I want to kill my bordom by playing these games but it turns out that microsoft have stopped internet service for these games and i wonder if these games can be brought back from the dead and be played

You got me curious, so I decided to see if I could load and play those 3 on-line games.

This is what appeared for each one:

A network error occurred while communicating with the game server.
Error Code: 0x80041004

What ever you do to get these games working there is no way to get it working as i mentioned: Microsoft have stopped Internet Service for these 3 games and that error code does not mean you dont have internet it means there are no avalibale servers to execute the downloaded code
to the game

I've never had any interest in playing those 3 games.
I was just responding to your thread.
I had a working 500 Mbps internet connection when I received that error message.
I agree with you about it being a server issue.

I'm afraid not, they relied on the games servers. The servers for W7 were turned off in 2020.

What they take with one hand, they give with another (albeit browser-based now)...
