Has anyone had any luck with this game? A couple moves and you are done, it seems like. Is there one that's winnable? |

Well, I guess I just don't get it, I'm still not having any luck. Downloaded your solution, Paul, and don't understand it. Help, please -- what do the numbers mean? |

Hi Gail, I posted this before but it's not easy to locate. I'm no PC expert but this is how I did it on my machine. 1/. Download it to somewhere you can find it, My Documents for example. 2/. Locate it and ensure that the file extension is .pgs. If it's not, change it (rename). 3/. Do not open the file. 4/. Find the folder that contains your Pretty Good Solitaire. In my PC it is as follows. Local Disk C/Windows/Application Data/Goodsol/Pretty Good Solitaire. 5/. Open that folder and you will find other saved games, all with . pgs extensions. 6/. Drag and drop the downloaded file into that folder. 7/. Close the folder and return to Desktop. 8/. Click on PGS logo and open games. 9/. Locate and open Big Spider Two Suits. 10/.Click on "Game" at top left of that screen. 11/. Scroll to "Open Game" and click. 12/. You should now see the downloaded game which you click and open. 13/. It will run thru the entire saved game leaving you with just one move to make. 14/. Make that move and it will be recorded as a win in your Stats. Hope this helps, Regards, Richard. |

9/. should be changed to refer to whatever game you've downloaded the file for. Richard |
