When I try to play certain games (examples are Skinny and Colour My World) I cannot move at all. I can use the mouse, but when I try to use the arrow keys or WASD nothing at all happens. Other games (like Ultimate Assassin 3 and Where Am I) work fine. I don't get it. I'm using Google Chrome and Adobe Flash version 10.3.181.26, if that helps. This is a problem in AG2 and AG3. I'm kinda mad because I really want to play those games!

I have like 7 GB free. I've been trying to get more memory free forever. The trash is always empty. I never knew that putting stuff into folders helped!!! (does it really??) I'll really try, but may not do something really major because it's not really messing anything else up but this flash game. I can definitly get rid of some stuff.

Yeah. I was playing Raze, (some of you might know how laggy it can get) so I googled how to get rid of lag, and it said put everything on your desktop into folders.

I did it, and the lag went away completely. =D

I've already figured out (with help!) that it's my computer because it's old and lags and has almost no memory. But thanks.

I have the same problem with Google Chrome 14.0.803.0 dev-m and IE9; Adobe Flash Version is 10.3.181.34. I suppose it's some kind of a cache problem, since it doesn't work in both IE and Chrome, and I have the same problem on other gaiming websites. Will try uninstalling Flash and emptying cache, will report if it has worked. Any other suggestions maybe?
P.S. One more thing: it started about one week ago, about the same date as first post in this thread...

Your cache stores data so that next time your computer needs the data, it already has it. On AG, your computer stores certain things, such as armatars, in your cache, so right after someone changes their armatar you might not see the change because your computer remembered their old armatar. Periodically it rechecks the cache to make sure it's up to date and if it's not, it updates it. A problem with a flash game wouldn't have anything to do with the cache, it may just be that one browser has a worse support of flash then another.

hey, thaboss, you get alot of memory back with the tfc program. It cleans temp files!

have like 7 GB free. I've been trying to get more memory free forever. The trash is always empty. I never knew that putting stuff into folders helped!!! (does it really??) I'll really try, but may not do something really major because it's not really messing anything else up but this flash game. I can definitly get rid of some stuff.

Even though I found out that all games work fine with no lag with Safari. (Thank you Apple!)

@thaboss

To answer to your question, you don't have to change a new computer since that isn't the issue. It's Google Chrome. Google Chrome is having problems with Adobe Flash, that's why the keyboard does not respond when you play flash flash games. Also, this does not happen to other browsers. Try to use IE or Mozilla FireFox, you'll see.

I did a lot of research, this happen to me as well, I thought it was my computer also (Windows 7). I tried to go the Google Chrome forums and I saw a lot of people having the same problem as well.
