0.don't worry!\n1.Press Alt+Ctrl+Delete OR Ctrl+Shift+Esc.\n2.in "Windows task manager" in "file" menu click "new task (run...)"\n3.type "explorer.exe" and click OK.\nI'm sure it'll solve your problem in WinXP!

Increase your ram asap.\n\nRunning winXP on a 64mb machine is silly.

Alternatively try this link (which should take you directly - but slowly - into the "Anything Goes" room) \nhttp://games.yahoo.com/games/applet.html?room=pool_int_c&prof_id=chat_pf_1&small=no&size=800&follow=&nosignedcab=yes&clicked=yes\n(I use that almost daily, with never a problem).\n\nNow, if still any problem, first (of course) I assume you DO click the "Click here if applet fails to load" - AND you still wait a fair time, like literally 3 minutes ?\n\nIf so, I'd suggest perhaps your JAVA is wrong or absent. Check/update that here: http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml\n\nLastly, it would be real nice if you (Mr.Asker!) come BACK here, and either choose which answer solved your question... or if none, then Add Details to your question to explain why not and ask for MORE help !

After I finished a game, I got out of the game but let the Canasta lobby browser sit for a few minutes and then clicked the X and that worked. Hope you find a solution.

restart the computer and see if you can open it. if it doesnt the only thing i can think of is uninstalling office and install it again.

It's the other way around - WinXP isn't supporting your card. Have you searched for XP drivers for the card?  What are the make and model numbers of the card?  More info, please. :)

if your games can't run on XP you can try to right click on the exe file and then goto properties and in the compatibility tab --> check run this program in compatibility for --> and then choose your OS which it was compatible for

If you have Windows Xp all ready installed, just click on the start button (left side of toolbar, left down corner) and select (by clicking) the Activate Windows option\nFrom that point your Windows will tell you what to do\nAll you want to find out more about the process is here:\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/?id=307890

Sounds like your having a RAM problem, You could try adjusting the games you are playing, so that they don't use up so much of the memory in 1 whack, other than that, unless you install more ram then ye can't play yer games\n\nR3dm0

If you need a JAVA runtime program to play games, download it at http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp\nRestart browser.\n\nOnce you get this installed you should be able to run those games without any errors. You just needed the java runtime program to have those games working =)

I suffered from the same problem.\n\nYou can use an older version; older than 6.0\n\nOr You can change your window (do not upgrade).

You need to make sure you have JAVA enabled.\n\n\nTo enable your JAVA, you need to go to Tools then Internet Options on your IE Browser menu on top.\nGo to advanced and then scroll down and look for JAVA and check all the boxes. \nThen go to the Security Tab and click on Custom Level and enable Java script.\nIf you need a JAVA runtime program to play games, download it at http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp\nRestart browser.\n\nYou have to install runtime java to get applets to work correctly. Another reason why it might freeze is because java applets use a tremendous amount of memory so you might not have much memory. There might be also the case where yahoo games is just not working correctly. you might want to try again a little later.

Few things you can do.  Try to enter Win XP in safe mode then try to find out and fix the problem there.  Or re-load Windows Xp if you don't know how to do this then bring it somewhere and pay for it to be fixed.

you can try and right click on it and choose open/run.\nif that still won't work just try and download it again
