Solitaire won't start

Guest

Receive the following error message:
The application or DLL c:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CARDS.dll is not a valid Windows
image. Please check this against your installation diskette.

I have removed the Windows component "Solitaire" and reinstalled. This does
not work. Anyone have any ideas?

Hi TNT900,

Since that problem just started happening recently, try a System Restore.

How far back do I go when I honestly don't remember the last time I played
Solitaire on this computer? It has probably been six months. (This is my work
computer. hehe)

Any other suggestions?

Hi TNT900,

I would go back to Friday the 17th of March if possible.

I went back to March 17 and Solitaire still doesn't work. Do you or anyone
else have any suggestions to fix this?

Hi TNT900,

There are definately other solutions we can explore. :)
I'll post again in the new thread you started a little later.

Cheers,
Jimmy.
