When I click start, games, then click on a game I get this error message:
this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
action. Create an association in the set saaociations panel.

Can someone give me a step by step fix please.

Hi, Apocalyptic,

Which game? Is it one of the free games included in Vista? Does it happen
with all games, or just one or a few? If you want a step-by-step fix, then
you're going to have to give us a step-by-step narrative of what happens.
We can't see your computer.

Also, whenever posting a question, please include at least the full version
of Vista (Vista Home Premium x86 SP2?). And it wouldn't hurt - and might
help - to include at least a minimal description of your computer, such as
the make and model or mobo/CPU/etc. if you built it yourself.

Delete the ICON then reinstall the game if you can.
