    Hi, I'm trying to play this game: http://www.flyordie.com/straightpool/. I've installed Java as it requested but it's telling me that: "This plug-in only works on desktop". Any ideas on how I could get it to work?

    Thanks
    Pat

    Are you opening "internet explorer" through the link on the metro interface?

    I have seen issues with certain sites when you open it via this link. When you open the site via the plain internet explorer shortcut they tend to work fine.

    What's the metro interface? I'm using Chrome if that matters.

    Sorry, have you tried running it in Internet Explorer?
