Question

I want to play Backgammon on Yahoo! but the game will not load on my computer. Why?

Answer 1

Try restarting your computer!

Answer 2

There have been a few glitches since the down time a couple of weeks ago.  Make sure java is installed and make sure you don't have popups blocked on your computer.  Best of luck with it.

Answer 3

For yahoo games;  Java is needed! update java

Next; Set your pop up blockers for the game site!

Yahoo games open with a pop up. Most toolbars like yahoo and Internet explorer have pop up blockers! When you try getting in lounge or room and it doesn't work. click on pop up blocker on yahoo tool bar. On the drop down list click on Always allow tab it will say recent pop ups blocked. high light yahoo.com then click allow. Google tool bar click on yelly stripe  to allow site.

. IE browser settings to allow pop ups Right click on Tools, Internet options, privacy tab, cookie over ride. Type in Yahoo.com, allow then ok. This is the proper way to use the pop up blocker. I have never had a problem or had to hold any keys down to get in.

If you are using Norton anti virus you may need to turn it off until you are in room.But this is rarely a problem.

When the game demo pops up click download.  Once in lounge use options box to select small windows,once in room expand it and the distracting ads are gone.

Answer 4

Install Java Applet, clear cache, erase stale pages, turn off Pop-Up Blocker.

Answer 5

You may have the wrong version of Flash on your computer, or if you have DSL or Dial up, try refreshing the page! If that still doesn't work, you probably need to download the application needed for the game to work right. Hope this helps!
