Flash games not playing in INTERNET EXPLORER

Thx for answering SkyDancer :) Yep i`ve tried that, I used the uninstall tool and done a clean re-install, that failed, so I tried again using the same steps when there`s an updated drivers problem, installing from a few updates ago, but, this failed also.

I have completely removed all my security hardware, this failed, I have done more registry related cures than is healthy, that failed, I have uninstalled all 3 browsers I use, yep you guessed it, failed again, I have tried several custom profiles in each network security options in Internet options, including the most java DirectX friendly config possible, all failed, I have checked and double checked that for some strange reason there could be files missing when I install or the respective browser addons missing in IE, but yet again no joy.

A few anomalies here, firstly I only ever have this problem with casinos using a particular software (Vegas Technology) the slots play and always have played trouble free, until I get a bonus feature that has animations, then boom, the black window of annoyance appears, i`m beginning to think that it may not be a flash player problem at all, here`s a link to a screenshot I took http://img148.imageshack.us/f/fproblem.jpg/

But anyways thx for your reply :).

Wow. Pretty thorough. I'll try to think of something else.
