Ok so at school we have some window xp's and whenever you try and do some flash games like robot unicorn attack, it shows the adult swim video but the screen just goes blank on the flash window and doesn't work. Yep.

And i'm pissed cuz I can't play robot uncorn attack!!!
But some games do work

have you tried using different browsers? mozilla and chrome work for alot but sometime you might need internet explorer or something. try them all.

it was more because he said that its in school. normally schools have no problem getting windows newest versions for pretty cheap...

i run XP as i am writing now on my home notebook. but i have a netbook and a newer notebook with W7 and its cool reminds me more of XP, just a little flashier

Vista wasn't that bad as long as you had something better than the home version. Home Premium and higher and you're good. I run OSX and Vista on my MacBook Pro, and Vista on my gaming desktop at home and I've got no problems with it. I've got Windows 7 on another laptop at home and I absolutely hate it because the laptop obviously wasn't made to run 7 on it so it's slow as fuck, but the OS itself is nice. XP I just can't stand because it both looks horrible and it's just annoying to use imo.

Back to the original post, like someone else said try using a different browser (Chrome, IE, Firefox, Safari, Opera), I have a game I run that won't work with Firefox, but it works perfectly with IE. If no browsers work, try installing a browser on a flash drive with all the plugins you need and running it off of there since sometimes school computers are retarded about you downloading plugins for their computers.

Hope this helps.
