Hi Thomas,
Yes, I am able to save Jim Kitchen's games and resume them, and change the
sound settings.
At least with Monopoly 9.
I used the context menu key to pick run as administrator when installing
them but to run them I go to the all programs sub menu , then to the kitchen
item and right arrow to get to the menu program.
For a faster method, I just tried the start menu search edit box, typed in
kitchen,
and kitchen inc games came up and hitting enter on that started the Kitchen
Inc SAPI voiced menu program.

Hi Phil,
Yes, but that only fixes the issue with installing them. Have you tried
saving games, settings, etc. Everytime I do that with them in
c:\program files\kitchensinc
user acccount control blocks the action and the game in question
crashes. At least that is the result on my laptop. The one and only way
I have gotten it not to crash when saving/resuming games under Vista is
to install them locally.
Cheers.

Hi Thomas,
I discovered that I only had to take the first step in your suggestions
to get Jim Kitchen's games to work on my Vista computer.
First of all, I have User Account Control enabled.
1. arrow to the setup for the game you want to install, press the
Windows context key, and arrow to run as administrator. This will launch
the setup with admin rights that User Account Control requires for some
setup/installers.
I did this for WinKit that creates the menus then also for each game I
installed into it.
I installed to the default location c:\Program Files\Kitchensinc.
So for me it was not too dificult.
