Online games will not load...

I am running windows 7 on my hp slimline s5710f desktop computer.  I switched from wireless to ethernet over 4 months ago and ever since then i have been unable to play on my online games sites.  I get on the sites but the games either will not load,or they partially load,or i get a "cannot connect to server" screen and then nothing.  I have tried everything,i have contacted my internet provider dozens of times,i have also contacted the game site and i get nothing but repetition and no results. Please Help!

Hello Croppertone,
Have you tried a system restore to a date before the problem came up? I know it means going back I believe you said 6 months, but a solution is a solution and we are running out of things to check. If you have another computer that is on your same network we can test to that.
We can also reset your IE settings back to default, but I don't believe your settings to be an issue.
To set back to default
To use the Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature from Control Panel, follow these steps:
Exit all programs, including Internet Explorer (if it is running).
If you use Windows XP, click Start, and then click Run. Type the following command in the Open box, and then press ENTER:inetcpl.cplIf you use Windows Vista, click Start. Type the following command in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER:inetcpl.cplThe Internet Options dialog box appears.
Click the Advanced tab.
Under Reset Internet Explorer settings, click Reset. Then click Reset again.
Click to select the Delete personal settings check box if you would also like to remove browsing history, search providers, Accelerators, home pages, Tracking Protection, and ActiveX Filtering data.
When Internet Explorer finishes resetting the settings, click Close in the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box.
Start Internet Explorer again.
This can be found on Microsofts KB articles How to reset Internet Explorer settings.

  • Games will not load on Slingo...what do I do?

    Slingo comes on but when I try to play games; the games will not load

    Maybe contact the site and as for help.
    I can get into that site e.g. http://slingo.com/sgs/sample/1#ctrGame
    but presumably I would need to register to go any further and I have no interest in doing that. If it is a site that you can normally get into without registering have you tried with IE does that work, if so post back and we will see if there is anything we can investigate together.

  • Pogo games will. not load completely

        I have followed all of the steps with the flash help and still cannot get my games to load.

    I too have the same problem. I went back to an older version of firefox in order to get my pogo games to work. I would imagine that any site using the java applets will not work with firefox. There is something in the new update that causes the applet to crash or break when started in the newest full version of firefox. I hope they get this bug fixed soon, I like to keep my software as up to date as possible.

  • My ipad 2 did its own update as normal except this time it will not load anything to do with game center I cant even open that app is there something I can do

    my ipad 2 did its own update as usual ( 7.0 to 7.1) except this time it will not load anything to do with game center even its own app............is there anything I can do?

    Try closing all of the apps on your iPad and then reset the device.
    To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it. Close every app this way.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Pogo will not load any games

    Pogo will not load any games. I am a member of pogo and paying for this when it is not working is really getting on my nerves. Nobody on pogo seems to be able to help. They will not load and I can not play. I keep getting a message saying something is wrong with the browser. But everytime they tell me a way to fix it, it still does not work.

    Is that a problem with Java or another problem?
    You can try:
    Control Panel > Java > General tab > "Network Settings...": "Direct Connection" (enable)

    If you can't install or update Flash, follow these instructions.
    If you have installed the latest version of Flash, please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
    Step 2
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
    and confirm. Close the window. Then select
               ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
    Step 3
    If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    Step 4
    a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
              When visiting other websites
    From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
    b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
    c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
              Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
              Stop plug-ins to save power
    Step 6
    Open this folder as in Step 4:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
              Flash Player (failing).plugin 
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    Step 7
    Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    Step 8
    If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked  
              Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
    Then click the button marked
              Manage Website Settings...
    if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
    Step 9
    Select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
