    Is there a way to put Space Cadet on my machine that has XP home? It was included with XP pro and If I ever want to get any work done on the business computer, I have to have Space Cadet on the home computer so I can get the wife off the business computer. She's loves the game. Help I need to get her off my computer!!!!!!!!!!! I think she's addicted!

    It was added by the OEM. Chances are you would have to buy it. The first step is to find out who makes it. You may find that information under Help, About... when you are playing the game.

    I think you are confused. I google the same and get Plus For Windows 95! as being the source, but that is an extra program in itself, and it won't run on Windows XP at all. So it must have come from something else.

    Originally the Space Cadet pinball game was included with Plus! 95, but this game should be included in Windows XP Home and Pro. I was working on a friend's computer who just had Windows XP Home reinstalled and that game was there under the games program folder.

    I checked my computer at work (running XP Pro) and I don't see anything as to reinstall that game under the "Add/Remove Windows Components" in the Add or Remove Programs.

    As I was typing this, I installed all the games since they were not installed and the Pinball shortcut was put there. Perhaps trying to install all games would place that game on your XP Home computer.

    Hope this helps.

    There is 3d Pinball on XP, but not Space Cadet Pinball.

    If they are one and the same, I don't know (maybe). I do know its not called Space Cadet (the built in game).

    <shrugs> I just opened the game and it does say 3D Pinball.. and when the game loaded it said at the top corner "3D Pinball Space Cadet." I know I played the game when I had 95, and this is the same game I played when I was on 95. Although I do not remember if it said "3D Pinball" when it launched back in those days. :)
