Welllll....how did you do it? I miss pinball from XP, too, and would like to
install it into Vista.
 
Just look in your XP Program Files/Windows NT and you'll see it there as a
folder. Copy it and drop it into your Vista/program Files/Windows NT
folder.
Open it and you will see Pinball.exe (The PinBALL icon). Create a shortcut
to it and copy that shortcut into your Games folder Start/Explore all
users/Games.
From there you can make a shortcut to your desktop if you want.
That's all assuming your XP is still around of course.
 
Thanks for the reply. Got the game transferred over to Vista, and made a
shortcut. Didn't quite follow, though, where to put that shortcut to get it
to show up with the other games in my Start menu. When I went to "All Users"
folder, there was not a "Games" subfolder to put the shortcut into. Looked
around but couldn't find where the other games are at 9solitaire, etc) - can
you please clarify where this shortcut goes to?

Thank you
 
Can someone help me please get my pinball back? Thats the only game that i
ever played when i had XP. What a bone headed idea to not include it in
Vista!
