  1. Screen goes white and freezes!


    I've loved MS MJ for several years but just the past few days when I click on a daily puzzle the screen goes to white (where an ad is usually displayed). It will then flash "loading" then back to white and stay there.....I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling
    it and while it helped that day (yesterday) it is back to the same problem today!! Help, I miss my daily MJ puzzle "fix"!

    :)

    White Blank Screen!

    What's happening with the Daily Challenges ? The game opens ok, but when the small ad goes to run (if you're not a premiere client), the screen freezes, goes white, and wont go any further.

    When will this be fixed?

    Thx

    I bought a new video card. Even though my old one should have been sufficient to run the game.

  5. Hey, guys!

    Sorry to see any issues with Mahjong! We've seen this a bit, and it appears that "resetting" the data in the game fixes this for most users. You can do that by following the steps below.

    • Click the Start menu on your PC
    • Click the gear icon for Settings
    • Click Apps
    • Ensure you are on Apps & features
    • You can search for Mahjong, or scroll until you find the game
    • Click on the game name
    • Click Advanced Options
    • Click Reset

    It will ask you to confirm, and when you go back the game, it should have you sign in again. That should get this sorted out for you.

    Please let me know how it goes! We can dig further into it if that doesn't help. Screen goes white and freezes! :)

    White Screen Freeze

    Thank you for getting back to us. Here are troubleshooting steps below on how to troubleshoot video / graphics issues:

    Solution 1. Determine which version of DirectX is currently on your computer. Click Start, and then type dxdiag in the search box. Hit Enter. Under the System tab, make sure that the DirectX Version is DirectX 12.



    Solution 2. Check to make sure you are running the latest version of Java. Start the Java app (or program) on your computer. Tap or click the Update tab in the Java Control Panel. Then, tap or click Update Now. Solution



    Solution 3. Make sure your computer is properly ventilated. Games use more power than most other apps or programs, which generates more heat. Make sure that the computer fan's exhaust vent is not blocked. Solution



    Solution 4. Turn down your graphics and sound settings. Scaling down your graphics and audio settings may allow the game to run smoother and be more stable on your computer.



    Full Screen Anti-Aliasing (FSAA) – Turning this off or lowering it from the highest settings can make a big difference, at the cost of some jagged edges in the graphics.



    Resolution – The higher the resolution the harder your graphics processing unit (GPU) has to work. Lowering the resolution can have a big impact with fairly little loss in graphic quality. Shadows – Simple shadows are easier to draw.



    Shadows turned off is the easiest of all. Texture/Detail – Lower detail textures aren’t as crisp but will make the game easier for your system to manage.



    Surround Sound – Disabling surround sound eases the strain on your sound hardware.



    Keep us posted the outcome to guide you with further troubleshooting steps.
