Kilo.Dollar Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I am failing to play XP games e.g Internet Checkers. Unable to connect to games server. I had a problem which prompted a new installation of XP and since then am not able to connect.I had my settings back to what they were before the re-installation (IP address included)Is there something I did not do or did wrongly?

Can you post pic of this error here? Maybe you're missing a plug-in.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forkprong Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Possibility that the program is blocked by the Windows firewall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilo.Dollar Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 That is the problem. I have my firewall disabled, but it suggests that that may be the problem. I've even attempted to have it as an exception.Nothing has changed as far as my server is concerned, except the local machine re-installation.As of plug-in, I may agree since Java applets are failing to initiate. What do I do. Have unstalled Java and re-installed to no avail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
