| If Single Player games (ex:
www.zone.com/bejeweled.) don't load try these steps:
| * Afterwards, all game sites (such as Yahoo) with similar games will work as well.
|
| 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.
|
| 5. Some games require Shockwave Flash which you can download from:
|
http://sdc.shockwave.com/shockwave/download/frameset.fhtml
|
| 6. If the problem persists Adjust Your browser:
|

|
| 7. Try these suggestions for Zone's Java Games:
http://zone.msn.com/zzzz/help/helpjavagames.asp
|
| 8. If you see a coffee cup icon in your icon tray, or have Sun Java listed in Control Panel /
| Add-Remove programs uninstall or disable it to prevent conflicts with Microsoft's Java.
|
| 9. Maybe it's a software conflict: Temporarily disable Startup programs one at a time, starting
| with Firewall, Antivirus & AdBlockers using:
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=331796
| or this utility:
