[SOLVED] help in getting java platform to work

mpkc76 · 10-28-2009, 04:05 PM

the java platform version 1.6.0. it won't load, so the game can't open up to play it. what do i have to do? Mary

Are you sure you have the latest version of Java?

mpkc76 · 10-29-2009, 10:18 AM

i went and made sure i had the latest java. then i went to the on-line game and it still won't connect. when it doesn't connect, it shows the little icon in the upper corner when a page doesn't connect on a web page. on the icon i click on it for details about not connecting. it said "load: class loader. class not found. also had "exception: java.lang. class not found exception: loader class. Does that mean anything in why it's not connecting. mary

Hi.

What game are you trying to play? Some games use different Java platforms.

mpkc76 · 10-29-2009, 12:04 PM

runescape

**Lord Sirian** · 10-29-2009, 12:59 PM

Ok.

Uninstall your current Java through add/remove programs, then go here and download and install Java again. Then see if the game works.

Also, are you using a browser to play the game? If so, which one?

mpkc76 · 10-29-2009, 01:23 PM

I don't think so, because I just went to the site to play. the first time and downloaded java and then started playing. Is the browser up where google toolbar is, if I have it? I uninstalled the java. put the new one in which was the same one. so i went to runescape and still didn't work.

**Lord Sirian** · 10-29-2009, 10:31 PM

Try downloading the Windows Client from here, then see if it will work through that.

mpkc76 · 10-30-2009, 03:46 PM

it still didn't work. my son unclick or something of having the Java toolbar. Is there anything with that, not having the toolbar. I looked in "view" and there isn't a Java toolbar installed. there's all other ones, but Java. Mary

mpkc76 · 10-31-2009, 05:24 AM

I found out how to see if Java was in my web browser. I went to internet option, then to advance and I scroll down and could not find java. so how do I get it back in there. Mary

**Lord Sirian** · 10-31-2009, 06:23 AM

What browser are you using?

mpkc76 · 10-31-2009, 06:58 PM

Internet Explorer is my web browser. When I was in that section of internet options I clicked on programs. it had manage add-ons. I click on it and found toolbars and extentions, in there i found Java. Mary

**Lord Sirian** · 10-31-2009, 09:15 PM

So is the game working? If it still isn't, go here and click the drop-down box, then click Force Java. After that, click save settings. Then see if the game will run.

mpkc76 · 11-01-2009, 05:48 AM

It didn't work! you know where they list all the toolbars you have. well there instead a java toolbar. so stupid, I guess I'll never be able to play the game again. unless there's is a another platform that will open the game up. Is the computer missing something, got deleted. that a computer needs to run games. Mary

**Lord Sirian** · 11-01-2009, 06:17 AM

Try using a different browser, download and install Firefox then go to the main site and try to play from there.

mpkc76 · 11-01-2009, 09:53 AM

that didn't make a difference. I have Vista and it was working until now. So it's not because I have Vista. Should I try a older Java version or different new version? Mary

hilo123 · 11-01-2009, 10:42 AM

Did you try running Firefox/IE as administrator ? Or compatibility for XP Service Pack 2 ? Or other?

mpkc76 · 11-01-2009, 04:00 PM

I did change from Internet Explorer to Firefox. But it didn't make any difference. The Java still would not load all the way and open Runescape. How will xp service pk 2 help me. Mary

**5NIPER_WOLF** · 11-01-2009, 09:03 PM

Service Pack 2 addresses many problems with Vista including, but not limited to, security improvements, file transfer improvements and more, so it could solve your problem.

**Lord Sirian** · 11-02-2009, 03:22 AM

Also, in Firefox, click "Tools -> Options -> Content" then take a screenshot of the Content menu and post it here.
