Loading issues
 
Can anyone shed some light on as to why hardly any games are loading anymore?.. On average out of about 10 randoms games i click to play, about 2 of them actually load successfully. I have tried both links full & score mode on every game i try but i keep getting the same result.
Im using Internet explorer which ive been told shouldn't be the cause of any problems, and i cant think what could be causing it.
The games im trying to play are arcade coin ops Psychic 5, Midnight resistance, Toki & Street fighter 2.

{This is what i keep getting}
Sometimes the loading message appears for a few moments as if its trying to load, then the message changes to "ERROR: game did not load" after about 5 seconds, sometimes less.. this happends all the time now and its becoming increasingly frustraiting.
Most other times however it doesn't even attempt to load and goes straight to the "Error" message as above. :face:

P.S I have played the games in question a few days ago and had NO problems with them, Well apart from struggling to get used to the keyboard controls but thats another matter entirely.

Hope someone can help me solve this annoying mystery! :(

Lanny77 and SMASH

Whenever it happens to me it's either -

1) My security has quarantined one of the R.U. files. (due to small amount of users of said file) so I just restore from quarantine and it works fine.
2) If it's not the above I just reset Internet explorer via Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Reset Internet Explorer Settings. I then allow the R.U. plug in to be loaded up again and everything works fine.

The above happened to me today and it worked immediately after following step 2

If this still doesn't work then either wait for an expert or PM Kong.

He is referring specifically to a problem with Norton - http://www.retrouprising.com/support...-norton/t9880/


Press Windows Key + R to open a Run Prompt. Windows key is to the left of the space bar and has a flag on it.
In Run Prompt paste
%temp%\arcadeox\
press enter.
If that fails to open a folder then change it to
%temp%\Low\arcadeox\
and press enter again.
Move (NOT Copy) that entire folder to a new location such as the desktop.
Then play a game again.
If that works, please contact me to make arrangements to send the moved files to me so I can see what went wrong and make sure it doesn't happen in the next version.
