How do you remove solitaire, free cell and the other MS games? I looked
under add/remove windows components, but it is not listed there. Any
suggestions?

do a search for a hidden file called sysoc.inf

(you may want to make a backup of it in case of any problems)

open the file in notepad

use Edit> Replace to remove all instances of the word

hide

note do not remove the commas, just the word hide

save and close the file

now when you got add/remove windows components additional items will be
displayed

Hi

In the link below there is a script that removes the MS games on Win2k
and WinXP (based on a script by Michael Bouchard, modified by me):
