Problem With Sleepy Slots

[MommaT]

Hi
I'm having trouble running SS with Showbiz Slots 2--when i run it --it tries to open a new window (the same window you get when you right click on the game screen) 
I am running Windows XP and using Internet Explorer--if you need more info--just let me know.

Thanks
MommaT

Homer says:

1) Operating system (Windows 98, 2000, ME, XP etc)
2) Browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape, AOL, Mozilla, Opera etc)
3) Color setting (24 bit, 32 bit etc)
4) Screen resolution (800x600, 1024x768)
5) Smooth edges of screen fonts checked or unchecked
6) What Java you are using
7) Is anything at all happening when you start the program

You get the idea the more information the better

OS: Windows Xp home edition
Browser: Internet Explorer
Color Setting: 32 bit
Screen Res: 1400 by 1050
Smooth Edges:not sure(couldnt find where this was)
Java:Sun
Anything happening: the auto starts-the timer starts to run and then a box shows up (the same box as if you right click on the game screen)

Thanks

Change resolution to 1024x768

[MommaT]

I tried changing the resolution--it's still doing the same thing--any other suggestions?

[Homer]

Momma sit tight. I'm testing it. ;)

[Homer]

Momma, I just tested it. It runs fine for me. The difference between our setups is I use 1024x768 resolution and I use the Microsoft VM instead of the Sun Java. Try changing your java and see if that fixes the problem. Let me know. ;)

[MommaT]

I tried to download the VM--but i cant figure out how to use that instead of the Sun java :-\  ---also i just remembered---the sun java recently had me update the program--could that be what's causing the glitches??   It's now version 1.5 (build 1.5.0_04-b05) 
Thanks for all the help and patience--you guys are great  O0

Tools>Internet Options>Advanced Tab>Scroll down until you see Sun java>uncheck all boxes under Sun Java>Right under that is Microsoft VM>check the box next to JIT Compiler>click apply>click ok>close browser>Re-open browser>VM will now be in use.
