well i never done this but i think this is how you do it
you go to Control panel then Add/remove programs properties then in the tab Windows Setup go to Games and see if it has a tick and if it dont have a tick tick it and if it says it need the windows 98 cd put it in your cd rom and try again

OK if I still remember. I take it you do not have the original disks. Do this to see if it is there.
Go >>Start >> Run ... type in sol.exe

If you are missing Solitaire in Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP to reinstall the application go to Start / Settings / Control Panel / Add-remove Programs / click the tab that says "Windows setup" / double-click on the accessories icon / check the games icon / click ok / click apply, if the icon is checked uncheck it and then say ok then apply then do the above steps.

What Boopme said should have done it.
It will extract the games from the cab files.
If the cab files are on the hard drive you will see it say "copying files" then "creating shortcuts"
You may have to browse it to the windows\options\cabs folder depending on the system

If the cab files are NOT on the hard drive it will ask for a 98 cd and then you will see the above

How far does it get?
