I recently had a virus hit my system. I restored my
Windows XP OS, downloaded and updated two fixes, and
installed Norton AntiVirus. When I tried to play a game
of Free Cell or Solitude, the application comes up in a
dull gray color. What Happened? How can I fix it?
 
Hi LR Young,

The first idea that comes to mind is to reinstall the games
as they might have become corrupted when you had the virus.

To add/remove Windows XP Games: Click START / Control Panel /
Add or Remove Programs / Add Remove Windows Components /
Accessories and Utilities / [Details...] / Games / [Details...] / then check
(or uncheck and then recheck the games) / Click [OK] 3 times to finish.
