Aight.. heres the situation... I just got back from a, well lets just say, involuntary absense from the game, and I tried to login. Well.. I remember all my login info, as I can access the weblogin just fine, and I can even access the stand alone launcher just fine, the problem however lies after the login proceedure. I try to actually get into the game, and neither method actually causes the games .exe to run, nor can I get the .exe to even attempt to run, like that vista fix suggests. It doesn't give me any error messages or anything.
Usually I don't have this many issues with any software, but this is just getting baffling to me.
I am running WinXP SP3, but SP2 was doing the same thing.
I can provide any other software/hardware info that anyone is curious about, like a dxdiag or whatever, but like I say, this is just wacky. I'm almost to the point of reformatting, but I didn't really want to go to that extreme yet, as only my most essential files are backed up on a regular basis, and those "nice to have" files have not been backed up for a while, though recreatable.
Anyway... if anyone can think of some reason why the client isn't playing nice on my XP system, I'd be glad to try to force it to play nice if anyone has an Idea...
Also... I did make sure that the game was on my firewall access list, and I opened the ports through my router/firewall as well, so those issues should be staved off... but like I say, there has been no error messages or anything, just the client not starting up at all, like, it doesn't exist.
