Can Games from Win98 disc be installed on own
Just wanted to know if there is a way to install games such as Hearts and Solitare from a win98 disc, Already have win98 on the machine but not any of the standard games. A friend is looking to finally up grade to Win98 but had wanted mainly The game Hearts to play. They are using win95 that had it installed. Any help is appreciated

I've never tried it, but I think the chances are good that you can just copy them over...

If you have 98 on the machine, just put the 98 CD in and go to control panel, add/remove programs, Windows Setup - and add them.

Hey all,
I got to this prior to the weekend. I found out how to install the games from the win98 disc, Here is how it is done for Win98, 98SE, and ME you need to install them manually since games aren't part of a typical installation. Open the Control Panel, double-click Add/Remove Programs, and click the Windows Setup tab. In the list of Components, double-click Accessories. Click the check box next to Games, OK twice, and when directed insert your Win95 installation software program. Many thanks to GLC for directing me in the right direction and hope it helps others Strowhat (Chuck) |
