Installing microsoft game

[lupsol]

Hi!

In my PC, the installed windows 7 version, does not contain any games like spades or hearts.

If i am right, then these games comes with windows installation by default.

Can i get these games to my PC, from another computer, running windows 7 ?

You may have to enable them in Control Panel via "Turn Windows Features On and off".
just check the box that says "games"

I don't show in Control Panel "Add/Remove Windows Components".

So I also include this if they need it.

Click Start> Type "Turn Windows features on or off" in Search bar and click it.

It will take a few seconds to list features in the new open window.

Check mark games and click "OK"

Try going to the tutorial Sygnus posted and see if this helps. Windows Features - Turn On or Off

Is this a work PC or your own personal PC? Also what version of windows is it running? Windows key + Pause/Break will show you at the top under "Windows edition".

May I ask where you obtained this version of windows 7 Ultimate? I ask because that's not the normal version you would buy anywhere. Do you have the original Microsoft DVD for that version?

 

[lupsol]

No, I have no DVD for this version. It was installed in my PC by an engineer, works in some computer shop.

Unless those games are hidden, since you have no disk you probably have no access to those games. Perhaps you should talk to the person who installed the OS for you.

Good luck.

You might want to have a word with that engineer about what they installed on your PC. Especially if you paid money for it. Windows 7 Signature Edition was given out by Microsoft as part of the Party Pack when Windows 7 was launched. It's not meant for resale. If you press the windows key and the pause break key do you see a blue re tangle with "ask for genuine Microsoft software" on that screen. And does it show windows as activated?
