Disappearing Minesweeper Game
 

Sad I know, but I'm a keen player of Minesweeper on Windows '98. My playing days may be over, however, if I can't solve this problem. I can start a new game from the main start-up menu, but the game screen has moved so far up the computer screen that I can't access the drop down menu at the top. This is the second computer to display this problem. Did I just play it to death? Can anyone help a saddo?

Two things to try. 1) Try reducing the size, or getting 'drag' available(not always poss, I can't now but on the old one I could), or try dragging the bottom downwards by using 'enlargement', or 2) delete it from the control panel and then reload it if you have the windows 98 discs still. All my patience windows move every time, and now I just re-centre them whenever I play.

Sorted it. When you load minesweeper the normal way, a 'minesweeper' bar appears at the bottom of the page. Right click the mouse to bring up a menu. Choose move, and without moving the mouse-pointer icon (probably off screen) hold left button down continously and drag south until - hey presto (I hope). Otherwise in the bottom menu choose minimise, or even double click left on the task bar, watch minesweeper disappear, and the click left again and say hello!?!
