Hi Hans, open Control Panel to Programs and Features and click on "Turn
Windows Features on or off", checkmark Games and press OK. Have your Vista
DVD in place.

Try going to Control Panel \ Programs \ Programs and Features. Under Tasks,
choose "Turn Windows features on or off." If "Games" is checked, uncheck
it. Click OK. Then re-open "Turn Windows features on or off," and check
"Games". Click OK.

On the other hand, if "Games" is not checked when you initially open "Turn
Windows features on or off," check it. Click OK.
