jprogman -> Missing Games for Games Collection (2/28/2015 12:22:54 AM)
|
I was installing each packages from the DVD I've bought recently. It was the "Games for Windows" version of "700,000 Games." I've installed all the games from Best Game Hits 1-4, Best Game Hits 5-6, Best Game Hits 7, and Best Game Hits 8 successfully. But when I installed the Game Collection and went into its launcher, many of the games just give me an "Unhanded exception" error.
Is it possible that the DVD is defective?
Here's the message:

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
According to the stack trace, it seems it cannot find the directories to the missing games. So, I went to C:\Program Files (x86)\700,000 Games\Game Collection 700,000 and found only the directories to the following games:
100,000 Mahjongg Games
1001 Japanese Crosswords
1001 Tangram Puzzles
2002 Kakuro Puzzles
2002 Pentamino Puzzles
3003 Crystal Mazes
4500 Vegas Slots Bonus Bonanza
Astro Color Twist
Chess Brain Teasers 100K
Chess Magic 30K
Chess Reversi 100k
Chess Solitaire 50k
Chess Sudoku 100k
Sudoku Mania
Super Word Games 10,000
But according to the launcher for the "Game collection" (with the banner "700,000 Games), the following games CANNOT run and just throws an error:
Crystal caverns of AmonRa
Dynasty of Egypt
Jewels of the Nile
Hexagon Mahjong
Taipei Mahjong 25000
2002 Games
500 Solitaire Games
2002 Spaceout Games
3000 Jigsaw Puzzles
1001 Minigolf Challenge
King Solomon's Lost Mines 1001 Treasures
It turns out those files weren't installed. I have enough space in my hard drive, I have full admin privileges, and my anti-virus is off, but the setup still didn't install all the games properly even through the setup program itself said it finished successfully.
Here are a couple of details about the DVD rom:
