Free Microsoft game help

Hello all - I downloaded Nine Hole Golf from the microsoft website but I can't find the setup file in it's folder after unzipping it. I even copied the whole folder to my x51v since it's name had CAB as an extension but I still can't get it to work. Any ideas?
Here is the link to the game:

Thank you

Thank you

Just copy cab file in Program Files in your device and then locate the cab file in your device and just double-click the cab, it'll install itself to OmniGSoft folder. Go into OminiGSoft folder and click NineHoleGolf folder and finally click bin which is where the .exe is located.

Hope you can understand what I was saying.

I'm beginning to think there is something missing in the folder. There is no CAB file anywhere. All the name extensions in the folder are 3 digit numbers.

I see what you are getting at, don't unzip the file. Re-download the file, the zipped file you download is cab itself. Just copy it to your device and then click on it and it will install itself.

Sure thing. That is why I posted the link to the game. It's not everyday that we get something free from MS.

It is probably free because they would be able to sell it. The graphic are horrible!

I have been enjoying this game for a while, but then it locked up on me! I get to the select player screen and it freezes and then I have to do a soft reset. Anyone else have this happen?
