Answer 2

You need lots of patience with this one.  You are not alone.  It happens a lot.  There is no simple answer to your question. That problem seemed to start when Yahoo upgraded a couple of months ago and many people have had problems since then. If you browse through questions here in this category, both the resolved questions and the undecided questions as well as the open questions, you will find many other questions similar to yours with many people having similar problems.  You may get some ideas about how to solve your problem, but it does not seem to be an easy solution, and the suggestions don't seem to work for everyone.  Best of luck with it.

Recently Yahoo updated their chess software program and you now need the new version. The first thing you will have to do is remove the old software demo. Standard clearing the cache does not remove game demos (deleting browser history old files clearing cookies, etc) They have to be deleted by manually selecting the Yahoo demo program. There are 3 ways of doing this,not all PCs are the same,Try them in order until you get old demo removed.

#1 Click start button, then search, click on files/folders, type in yahoo chess. When file comes up, right click on it and then click remove. Next time you visit Yahoo chess it will prompt you to download the new demo of Yahoo's newest version of chess.

#2 Go to tools on your tool bar, then select Internet options, browser history, settings button,view files.delete all. then view objects. Select the game chess and then delete it if it's there.

#3 Go to start,my PC, click on C-drive, open the windows folder, open the downloaded programs folder.your games are listed there. delete the chess file.

#4 Internet explorer works best with yahoo games. If you are trying to use Foxfire make sure Sun java is checked as default java as it will not work with msn virtual machine java

Go to tools, internet options,advance tab. Scroll down to Sun java check it and java scrolling and JIT.

original and updated answer.

I use flash player 9 which is needed for games now with no problems. The old #7 will not play many of the yahoo games.
