Yes, it will work on Windows 8. Right click on the AutoSketch icon and click on TROUBLESHOOT COMPATIBILITY. Let it scan the click on TRY RECOMMENDED. It should set to start compatibility for WINDOWS XP (SP3). Click on TEST and it should continue and then FINISH or NEXT and close out the window. It worked for me!

Hi can you please try this one
You need to enable scripting:

Click the "Tools" menu on your Internet Explorer toolbar and select "Internet Options."

Click the "Security" tab.

Click the Internet (globe) icon and click the "Custom Level" button.

Scroll down to "Scripting."

Enable the following:

* Active scripting
* Allow paste operations via script
* Scripting of Java applets are all enabled

Click the OK button at the bottom of the window.

Note: Restart Yahoo! Messenger and you should start seeing text in your IM windows again.

It is more likely that scripts are having issues running on your computer. To correct this you need to Download Windows Script 5.6 depending on your operating system.

You could reset/delete the browsing history
In IE: Click on Tools>General>Under browsing history, click delete> then delete all

If you have or have had a linksys wireless networking device on your computer its software is the cause for the error. You must uninstall the device using its supplied installation cd. Using the windows add/remove software utility does not remove the software. It will remain on your system even if not visible on the installed programs list. Insert the installation cd then exit/cancel out of the installation. Click START then MY COMPUTER then right click on the drive showing the linksys name. Click OPEN then click the "utility" folder. There you will click on the "setup" icon. This will run the uninstall utility and remove all the linksys software from your computer. There is more than one "setup" file at this stage, the one you want will show "setup.exe" as its description as you roll the cursor over it.When its done remove the cd and restart the computer. You can install linksys usb networking devices using the windows new hardware wizard and they will run with no problems.

Hello,

Click start - Run- Type "msconfig" without quotes.

Click the startup on top. Uncheck the startup script you mentioned. Save and restart and it should boo up fine.

Hope it helps. Kindly update me as well.
