Why don't Pogo to go games work with my XP?

I use to have 98 and ever since i got XP i have not been able to play certain games (pogo to go and some other downloaded games). Is there anyway of fixing XP to be able to play these games?

 

Yes adjust the compatibility mode

 

Ok can you give me a little more information as to how to go about doing that......

 

Sorry, yes ofcourse
Go into properties of the game. Right click on it then you should see the compatibility tab just make sure you unable it to be able to play it in a newer os so choose 98se whatever it was designed for. Quite simple.

 

Ok it was in 95 but i just tried 98/me and it still doesn't work, the only other choices are NT and 2000. It keeps popping up with a ' action cancelled' " no page to display" message.....
This wouldn't be so agravating if it didn't happen all the time.
By the way thanks for the help.

 

Did you actually menage to get it up and runing?
It has to run

 

i Keep getting the error. I have only downloaded it and installed it so far, it won't let me go any further.

 

Got me with that one! I just don't understand how it doesn't have the 95 option. try reinstalling, restarting and then chaning. If it doesn't work just don't slap me
I'm just double checking the bunch of games on this system that are old and by old i mean old. and they all have 95,98/me,Nt4(service pack5) and windows 2000, no xp since this o.s is Xp

 

Pogo games require java.

Got it?

www.java.com

 

Ah no wander i didn't even think of that! get sunjava incase you don't have it

 

Wow Thanks you two I SO thought that was gonna work..... BUT it didn't, still won't play. Thanks tho.

 

Pogo game loading
Windows XP

I've been trying to play games at a game place, like I have before. Now, when I try to enter a game, it does not load. It states there is an Error on page. What could be the problem?

First thing you can try is clear out your browser cache.

Also make sure you don't have any pop-up blockers enabled.


Unless that's you

 

Thanks i have sent a post to the guy on that one. So far he is having the same problems as me, since installing XP and the service pack 2. Keep your fingers crossed for me.....Thanks again

 

Thanks Bail but that wasn't me, i have had that problem but have fixed that one along time ago.

 

No problem at all. I hope you get it going, also try downloading a fresh copy maybe? Good luck anyway.

 

Ok well Offically nothing works unless your a computer genius.
Thnx Bail and anyone else.
