Fresh Install of Vista Ate Poor Otto!

I had Windows XP Media Center Edition and upgraded to Vista. When I upgraded
I did a "clean install" which, I suppose, wipped my hard drive. Now, the
games that were a part of media Center 2005, Otto's Magic Blocks and soem
others aren't on my machine. My kids LOVE Otto and I am hoping there is a way
to get it back.

Any ideas?
 
Thanks!

But it still irks me that things I paid for and already owned are rendered
null. Oh well, gotta take the good with the bad I suppose. :(

You should should have done an upgrade and not a clean install.
 
I just did an "Upgrade Install" from Media-centre to Vista and although I
still have OTTO (and Gemmaster) neither of these games now work. Otto starts
to load then says - "game already started - use back to resume". Gemmaster
just freezes.
I did try the "trial version" from the yahoo site - but it didn't work
either - and didn't appear to be a Windows Media centre version anyway. I
have had no luck in finding any resolution to this. Did your new downloaded
version work ?
