No Games In Vista   
I have vista Home premium Lite (aka i slipstreamed it) 32 bit but when i
installed i was horrified to find that i had slipstreamed out the games
so i rushed to my office to find my son eating my vista home premium
disk - i ripped it out of his hands and rushed off to see if any data
could be salvaged - none

Can someone post the complete list of games for vista and links to
download them

Re: No Games In Vista   
They aren't downloadable...they are part of your installation.  Whilst I'm 
not familiar with Vista Lite in any way, they muct be on your installation 
disk.
If you haven't got that, then check with wherever you bought it.

Start>Control Panel>Programs>Add and Remove Windows Features or Turn Windows 
features on and off> tick and untick what you want.

It may ask for the installation disk.

Slipstreaming (if I understand it correctly) is a way to re-compile popular 
OS installations with just the programs or with updated service packs. So 
like you can strip out stuff you don't want to install on your PC, like 
wordpad maybe, or Windows Activation, then you can add stuff like SP1, so 
when you install the OS you're installing Vista SP1 instead of just Vista 
which you'll have to update later.

I may be wrong on some points.

My suggestion would be to install with a Vista DVD. Run from within Vista 
and use the upgrade option.

Dunno what else to suggest, other than you can find free online versions of 
most of the games that come with Vista.
