Problems with Java players - 2006/08/11 00:36
A question about Java games players on the internet:
When I try to view games on the net with these, I frequently encounter the following problems - a) The squares (particularly ranks 1, 2, 7 & 8 - where the pieces sit initially) are darkened, at least initially. Sometimes the whole board is darkened, obscuring the pieces. Sometimes this problem disappears when I begin playing the game, sometimes not. b) The text moves, if they are displayed, are sometimes displayed inaccurately - eg the move Nc3 will be rendered as (space) c3. c) Most annoyingly, Java boards invariably give my machine a migraine. Either the boards stop functioning after a few games, or my whole computer begins malfunctioning: other programs freeze. Sometimes Control-alt-delete and shutting down the Java board fixes this; sometimes I have to reset the entire computer.
These problems are not confined to one or two Java boards; they`re almost invariable.
My computer is a PIII, 750MHz, running Windows 98.
Is the problem at my end? Do I need to get the latest Java client or something like that? Or is it a fault in the Java?
Any assistance much apppreciated!
