Windows games lock-up

Recently all the built-in games in Win7, like Hearts or Solitaire, started to luck-up. They work just fine and after a while they just stop working. You can close them, but they do not really close and rather stay on the desktop messing with other windows. I have to close them from the manager. Do any of you encountered similar issue/have solutions for it? I've searched on google but can't find any answers.
