thanks Nick for your offer,
I am finally getting it. it would have been fairly simple if in the
begining someone had written and said "you absolutely need direct x
and the microsoft framwork" and explained what they were Then told
me where I might locate them. I have a dialup connection so I am on
my third night of downloading the microsoft framwork because it is so
huge and I don't want to tie up my phone for 35 hours in a row. As
far as direct x I'll get that in one night but the confusion could
have all been avoided had someone given me simple specific
information and dirrections for what I needed. I finally got enough
pointers and the correct direction, so thanks to those who helped.
Well it is almost done now and after this I should be ready to try
some games, maybe the ones I downloaded .
Thanks for your help
Tony

Direct X should do the trick.
Insure also that you're running windows XP because if not, most audio
games won't run, either on windows 98 or vista.
So check XP and direct X and you should be cool.
Please feel free to get in touch with me off-list.

Best,
