Answer 1

Yahoo just did updates to the sites! Your old game demo is now stale and will not open games.
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 the game file, Click on start,search,type in downloaded program files,open it then do the above.

Hi, Sorry you are having problems. I just finished installing Internet Esplorer 7 provided by and otimized for Yahoo!. The icon should be on your Yahoo browser by the Search Web address bar.

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 it all.
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 is working again (for me).
Amish Donkey.com backdoor: http://amishdonkey.com

Selecting small table before you enter a room makes more room for dialog on table. Resize(pull down)your screen after you get to a 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.

Hello,
This is a good link for downloading GNU Backgammon for free: http://bitly.com/1pUEbjB

it's completely free and it's very fast to install
This is an excellent game that is incredibly addictive for people of all ages, and which has the distinction of being freeware.
