Window 10 Games

Hi Gillian,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.

• Is the issue occurring with only Solitraire or with all games?

I would suggest you to update the graphics card driver and check if it works fine:

Follow the steps:

• 
  Right click on start menu and tap on device manager.
  
• 
  Select display adapters from the list and hit enter.
  
• 
  Right click on the display adapters and select update.
  

Hope it helps. Do contact us for further queries. We will be happy to assist.

Thank you.

 

Game crashing.

Hi Nini,

The error message that you received when you played the game means that the graphics card driver needs an update. To resolve your concern, we suggest that you update the graphics card driver by following the steps below:

• Select the Start button, type Device Manager, and select it from the list of results.
• Expand one of the categories to find the name of your display adapter, then right-click (or tap and hold) it, and select Update Driver. For graphics cards, expand the Display adapters category, right-click your graphics
  card and select Update Driver.
• Select Search automatically for updated driver software.
• If Windows doesn't find a new driver, you can try looking for one on the device manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.

If these steps don't work, try reinstalling the driver:

• Open the Device Manager.
• Right-click (or tap and hold) the name of the display adapter.
• Select Uninstall.
• Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

You may also run the game in compatibility mode to make it work on your Windows 10 PC by following the steps below:

• Go to the game folder and right click on the setup file.
  
• Click on Properties and go to the Compatibility tab.
  
• Under the Compatibility mode, check Run this program in compatibility mode for: and select the operating system where the game is compatible.
  
• Let the drivers install and launch the game again

Keep us updated with the results after performing the suggested solutions above.
