Windows XP & MS games

**pam** · 08-08-08, 12:43 PM

Hi,
I know this is going to sound really dumb but here goes. I accidentally uninstalled a heap of Windows XP components and have got most of them back. All except MS Games eg Hearts Solitaire etc. If I go into Add or Remove Programs and click on Add/Remove Windows Components it shows several components ticked already and says to select the components you want to add or remove. If I untick any that are already ticked does that mean they will be removed?? Or do I untick everything I don't want to change and only tick accessories or whatever it is that has the games sub folder?

Definitely having one of those DUMB moments so would appreciate help please.

If you untick it will be uninstalled. So leave those already ticked and tick the extra stuff you want.
