card games

Hi, I am wondering if anyone out there has experienced
this problem.When you open freecell and the cards come down
the cards are way to big and some of the window has white
sections in it.Solitair will open but you cannot do
anything.98 plus games work and other card games work.
I have reloaded windows on top of windows and that did not
help.changed video card - no help also if you start in
safe mode the games work..

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Here are some replies I found in past newsgroup posts:

"I have now found out the problem for myself! It was to do with having
Mcafee Virus Scan 6 installed and when this is running it causes a conflict
with Freecell and Solitaire.
Disable virus scan when playing and everything works fine!"

"He had over 500 emails in his OE in-box and many 100's more saved in other
mailboxes.
These had a lot of big attachments like .JPG and .GIF files. He started
cleaning out his =
mailboxes and moving attachments off the HD to CD-R.
After all this OE mailbox cleanup, FreeCell works!"

"It was a piece of software sent by my ISP (Freeserve) to upgrade my account
to AnyTime.
If I press C/A/D and disable its ATdialler, FreeCell works."

"Free Cell was locking up until, by reading a message on this Newsgroup. I
turned off
IMGICON.EXE on the Start Menu (Control/Alt/Delete). By instruction from
Iomega, after trying updated download for the Iomega Zip drive, I did a
search for IMGICON.EXE and
deleted it. All Works fine now."
