Hi, Sorry you are having problems.
I got in just before I read your question!
I have XP and I don't have any game files anywhere. I just go to Yahoo! Games and play on their site.
Last night I got error messages but I just kept trying it several times and it finally let me in!!! Go figure. If it doesn't work for you, try this:
I just finished installing Internet Explorer 7 provided by and otimized for Yahoo!. The icon should be on your Yahoo browser by the Search Web address bar.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/...
Yahoo also has another Home Page too. You might check it out. It is the last entry on the dropdown list under the big red Y! next to the pencil on your browser. I think this will take care of everything for you but,if not......
I KNOW THIS IS LONG........but please read.
Yahoo has a new format. Here are several things you should know and do:
If you have a pop-up blocker click on it, Click on always allow and type http://games.yahoo.com or try to get in first and when you hear your pop-up
(or not) click on the drop-down list on your blocker and then click on always allow and then click on games.yahoo.com.
Shove-it backdoor is working again. You may still want to use Amish Donkey.com backdoor: http://amishdonkey.com
Selecting small table before you enter a room makes more room for dialog on table.
Selecting small table after you enter does too, and also stops the ads, however; you only see the top half your cards.
Or you can just change your screen resolution by going to properties on your desktop, then settings and slide just a tiny bit from 800x600 to 1024x768 and switch it back when you finish playing. Which is what I do.
You cannot chat in yahoo anymore except on table and in lobby.
Yahoo has Spam Tracker Robots, and now if you move around too much, get booted from tables too much or get invited too much, it will mistake you for spam and bar you from games for 24, 48 and 72 hrs. and terminate your account I WAS BARRED TWICE
If the problems you're experiencing with Yahoo! Games include:
getting a blank screen
nothing occurring when you try to join a table
any similar problem
Make sure that the "Enable Java" box is checked.(under tools on browser choose internet options then advanced)
http://java.sun.com/ .........To install the latest version
You may need to analyze for defragmenting. Increase your memory if you keep losing your connection while playing. (under tools tab click on internet options, then settings, then advanced, needs to be 526 or higher.)
You may also want to clear your cache(history)on your browser or on internet options and restart your browser
If you continue to have problems, double-check your computer's compatibility with Yahoo! Games.
I hope this helps you out. It did the trick for me. It also increased my speed.

Yahoo just did updates to the sites! Doing this should get you back in.
This works with XP and may work for older windows. Click on my PC ,disk drive C, open windows folder,next open Downloaded programs file. click on game you want to play to high lite it.delete it.Now go back to game,it will prompt you to download a demo,do so and page will open! If you don’t have XP or can not find game file,click on start,search,type in
downloaded program files,open it then do the above.

I think that it is something wrong with YAHOO. Someone said to delete the cookies and then it would work. I deleted the cookies on mine and it still won't work. Just know that you are not the only one this is happening to.
