This is because, in ur machine ther is no JVM(java virtual machine) or ur JVM is not enabled.If ur using internet explorer go to tools->options-->advanced tab .go thru it to find whether ther is any JVM ..if not then ther is no JVM in ur machine ..otherwise select it and restart.If still not getting then install JVM from sun or microsoft.Try to search in ("sun micro system" web site for JVM) or (microsoft website for Microsoft JVM:- it is also compatible.)

Press F5. \n\nYou're probably using an older browser that doesn't update sites like yahoo automatically.

Try this help section in Yahoo!:\n\nhttp://help.yahoo.com/help/us/games/downloads/downloads-03.html

Most of the games on Yahoo use JavaScript, have tried hitting the escape button in the upper left-hand corner of your keyboard?  This will usually close and exit the games for you.

I think you might have personal firewall other then window xp firewall. You can set the exception port but don't know the number Check it out in yahoo.

You probably need a game supporter type thing..\n\n\nSometimes, it's just that you don't have the right time of support.  Do you have Java?  Java often helps solve game problems.  I had that EXACT same problem before.. \n\n...Same game\n...Same problem\n\nSo, i'm pretty sure that you don't have Java..\n\nTry getting java, if you already have it... I have no idea what's wrong...

It depends on the game. Some games just need to be downloaded. Yahoo! Games has some of both types.

If you don't have Java installed on your PC you can go to the creators of Java technology's web site and download & install the necessary Java components to your computer to run the Yahoo! games.\n\nThe link to the Java download page is:\nhttp://java.com/en/download/index.jsp

(Update following posting of 'Additional Information' by the inquirer)\n\nThis really is a wierd situation. It's hard to tell whether this is a problem with your account, or your computer browser setting.\nTo figure this out, you could do the following: -\n - get a friend to sign in to Yahoo Message Boards using your computer\n\n- Create another account with Yahoo and see if the problem persists.\n\nIf it is the first case, then there's definitely something not quite right with your browser settings. \n\nHope this helps\n\n---------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nCould give more information on which type of browser you are using, (internet explorer, or Firefox/Mozilla), and if you have enabled Javascript please?\n\n(The commonst cause could be the latter - you haven't enabled javascrpt to run)

You should be running Java 1.5 (check in add remove programs).\n\nLocate the Downloaded Program Files in the Windows directory and remove/uninstall all the Yahoo Controls (plus any other weird ones!!). \n\nWhen you go back to Yahoo games a new Active X control will install. That should sort the problem.

I don't want to play yahoo games, maybe you would have better luck in the games section on yahoo answer, instead of the tax section. Try you question again in that section.

This error appears to be caused by bandwidth limiting system that Yahoo has put in place on their servers. Once you have exceeded your allotted bandwidth for a specific period of time Yahoo gives you this Error 999 message and doesn't allow you to access the service. \nto prevent it, \nClear your browser's cookies and cache (temporary files)\nanother idea would be to log onto a diffrent country server in yahoo..\nkeep trying to log in migth help also\ni wouldn't recommend trying to go on games using a dial-up either. \nhope it works..( and no your computer doesn't suck)

No offence in any regards to any one anywhere at anytime. This answer is being given assuming that the asker has comapritively less knowledge in the field of computers with regards to this particular question. \n--x--\nThere are a lot of reasons why you are not able to play yahoo games. \n\nIf you have a high speed internet connection, connected through a router. Then your problem is the firewall on the router. You will have to disable it temporarily to enable the download of '.JAR' file while playing yahoo games. \n\nIf you have any kind of firewall software instaled on your computer, you will have to disable the firewall temporarily to enable smooth working of yahoo games. \n\nIf you have a "high speed internet connection MODEM", you may have to disable/reduce the firewall on it. \n\nLastly, update your computer up to the latest specifications by your operating system manufacturer. \n\nif you are using windows the go to http://www.windowsupdate.com for updates.\n\n--x--\nhope that helps.
