pinball game will not open

I recently did upgrade and installed IE7 and an Adobe Flash Player Update....

Now Pinball Game will only show the opening Full page Screen and then
closes.
I have been using the game regularly for over a year. Do not have a xp
disc cause bought computer second hand.

What can I do? Is game lost to me?

Uninstall IE7 and Adobe Flash.

You can use System Restore (Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools >
System Restore) to rewind your system to before you installed IE7, that
should fix the problem, and then use something like Firefox or Safari
instead of IE.

Thank you Andy. I did a restore and pinball reacts the same. Opening
screen, then closes. Any other ideas. ?

I bought a computer with windows xp on it. I do not have the discs. When I press 3 D pinball, it comes up and closes. How can I reinstall it so that I can play the game without the discs.

Have you tried uninstalling IE7 at least?
