Uninstalled Hold Em... now can't get it back

I uninstalled Hold Em due to the 8800 graphics bug (I didn't know it was that
at the time). Now I can't for the life of me figure out how to find and
reinstall the darn program since update no longer offers it. Any ideas?

Found the answer to my own question in another post. Since it seems to not
be an uncommon problem, here's what I found....



By renaming/deleting the SoftwareDistribution folder you will lose your WU
History
listing (not important). If everything is working okay again you can delete
the
renamed SoftwareDistribution folder.

Renaming the SoftwareDistribution folder

Click Start, Choose Run.
In the Run box, type services.msc.
Click OK.
Right-click the Automatic Updates service.
Click Stop.
Stopping the service will take a moment.

Rename the "SoftwareDistribution" folder: a. Click Start, click Run, type
%systemroot%, and then click OK.
b. Right-click the SoftwareDistribution folder, and then click Rename.
c. Type SoftwareDistribution.old, and then press ENTER to rename this folder.

Click Start. Choose Run.
In the Run box, type services.msc.
Click OK.
Right-click the Automatic Updates service.
Click Start.

You didn't actually uninstall Hold'Em.

All you did was hide it. If you go into the add/remove programs area you
can turn Hold'Em back on :)
