| Re: microsoft windows vista games stopped working?? Hi Katy, thanks for the reply. I tried what you suggested but it did not solve the problem, unfortunetly. gave me a A~NSISU_.exe has stopped working? Also, it's not HP games, its microsoft's games they have installed, like chess titans ect. Any other suggestions anybody?? thanks!
