Hi Jordan,

Online games are usually developed using Flash, Java, or Virtual Machine.
The most likely solution to a problem with an online game is to install, upgrade,
or reinstall the right one for the game site you're playing on.

A. For Zone.com games: Zone.com are converting most of their games for Flash
to avoid the conflicts between the Sun Java system and Microsoft's Virtual Machine.
Install Flash from: http://sdc.shockwave.com/shockwave/d...frameset.fhtml

B. Most other game sites still use Java. You can install Java and find more help
tips at this webpage: http://java.com/en/download/help/pogo.jsp

C. If the online game still won't load, or gives you errors, try these steps:

1. Click START / Control Panel / Internet Options and click on the Advanced Tab.

2. Below HTTP 1.1 is the Sun Java/ Microsoft VM section: Make sure all Java choices
are unchecked (especially JIT) and then press [OK]. You may be prompted to reboot.

3. If you don't see a Microsoft VM section then download Microsoft Virtual Machine for:
Windows 98 / Me / NT / XP from: http://www.abxair.com/software/msjavx86.exe

4. After you download Java, double-click the file to install it, reboot and then follow
the directions in Steps 1. and 2..to disable JIT compiler and other advanced options.

* Whenever you get a Java Virtual Machine Security Update from Windows Update, you
will have to follow Steps 1. and 2..to disable JIT compiler and other adv. options again.

6. If the problem persists Adjust Your browser settings using this basic example:

7. Try these suggestions for Zone's Java Games:

8. Maybe it's a software conflict: Make certain that your Firewall or Antivirus program is
not configured to block Java Applets. Norton's products for example have that option.
Regardless, temporarily disable Startup programs one at a time, starting with Firewall,
Antivirus, AdBlockers, & Internet Accelerators using the method in this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=331796
or this utility: http://new.jtsoft2001.com/windows/startup.php

9. If you have a Coffee Cup icon in your system tray (next to the time) you might have a
conflict between MS VM and Java: Uninstall Java using Control Panel / Remove Programs.

10. Check the Help / Support section of the game site in question for Java topics relevant to
that site. There is usually an email or a (non Java) help chat available as well. :-)

Yahoo Chess Version Conflict Solution!

This problem attacked me many times till I found the solution. It never never bothers me anymore.

People are asking what's the problem. The problem is...

You didn't sign out correctly in your previous session when you were in Yahoo Chess, therefore the YAHOO SYSTEM thinks you're trying to login again even though you are already logged in to its memory. SOLUTION: Open one window and sign into Yahoo. Then sign out of yahoo by clicking the "sign out" link. Now the system is cleared of its record of you logging in before. You can now log in and there would be no problem.

I used my solution to the problem and it didn't work!

That was because...

I FORGOT TO REBOOT MY MACHINE!


Glenn Wilkins

WOE!!

I FORGOT TO ADD THAT YOU MUST REBOOT YOUR MACHINE AFTER SIGNING OUT
CORRECTLY.

Then you will be home free and won't have any further problem with
Yahoo Chess providing that you always sign-out correctly.
