Hey guys and girls, im wondering why when im playing a game and click on to another window then come back to my game which is playing, goes white and nothing is happening. no sounds at all. only thing i see is the links on left side, rest is all white. which leaves me to press the X button

Any ideas why? what i can do about it ? my java is upto date. i do clean ups, and only have problems with the game window, nothing else has any problems.

Thanks

Until i fix this problem, i wont be coming back on.

see you guys/girls soon.

Could be lag james, it takes me 1 minute to load up after it.
Try to minmize computer activity while playing pool, i only run funkypool and msn. Other activities may cause lag and the white screen to occur.

Same happened to me earlier aswell.. leaving me to get knocked out of the 8ball tournament due to 3 consecutive fouls.

Dunno if it has anything to do with the update, but it was fine before.

Dazpolz, were there any sounds when you were getting knocked out on 3 fouls?

Common. Try simply maximiznig window and minimizing it. Tends to work.Techno's advice was also very good. Try running as few external programmes as possible. Eg another Java game applet or Msn Messenger. Hope this helps

Which browser j_a_m_e_s_?

Golden_shot, I'm sorry to hear about your problems, but this problem has only been reported 3 times. Again, please can you detail your Java version and browser?

This might be related to a specific Java version (even the latest one).

Nick this is exactly the same complaint as the black screen one, its exactly the same apart from one screen goes black one goes white, if you fix either one it should be both problems sorted with.

As for those, it has nothing to do with the updates as far as i am aware as there was an exact same problem before hand apart from as mentioned above the screen was black. Bare with him and all will be sorted soon.

I have the exact same problem as james here apart from mine doesn't go white mine has the pool table still and a "please wait..." this occurs maybe 1-2 times a week for me, it actually occured today. Once it comes up it wont let me even X the page, so i have too do Ctrl, Alt and Del then have too restart.

I dont know why it does this, my guess is probably lag, but hopfully it does get resolved soon.

Zacky,

If the game has crashed it would usually create a file of the format hs_err_pid*.log.

If you search for hs_err_pid you can see more information about the crash. The time of creation will show you when the crash was made.

If you can post the first part of the information (upto and including the current thread) like so:


#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
# EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x6d530883, pid=2928, tid=3372

#
# If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit:
# http://java.sun.com/webapps/bugreport/crash.jsp
# The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code.
# See problematic frame for where to report the bug.

In a normal windows setup it will default to the desktop, but going to Start>Search and entering hs_err_pid* will find it for you.

If you have had problems for a while, there may be a few.

Instead of just saying 'I have got this problem as well' please have a look at what Nick and Spinner have said.
