    I downloaded a simple solitaire game from work to a floppy and when I try to run it, it says a certain dll is missing. I know where to get the dll but don't know how to add it to the game. The same thing happes when i add to my computer. I test ran it from the floppy before I left work and it works fine.

    Put the dll in either the folder the game is in or in your windows\system folder. Either way, the game should run.

    Or you may have to register the .dll file. Start|Run|type regsvr32 xxx.dll and press Enter.
    Or maybe go to a DOS prompt and type regsvr32 C:\Windows\System\xxx.dll, and click Enter.

    OK, I'm back. I've tried some of the stuff (what I knew how to do) and nothing. What I need is Microsoft's solitaire version 5.00.2138.1. Is there a way to get this from ms?
