I'd be also interested on hearing what SOE's stance will be on us archiving all this stuff and making it available and would also be very willing to host a copy of the forums, even if I have to archive it myself I'll try and do it (god kno...

Heh, I was a one of the original LESIG (and was quite shocked by it as well) but after all the big hoohar and it move to v2 I lost a lot of my free time and wasn't a big part of it any more for a long time. Most of my parts were all small...

Hey there. When you registered the account, did you also enter billing info for the subscription? If not then that will be why it is currently disabled. SOE requires you to enter billing info to confirm the subscription, there is nothing t...

Run an antivirus scan, run a chkdsk on the drive as well. Might also be worth going to run and typing "sfc /scannow" and let that run through and see if it changes anything. Other then that, probably a repair install like flecky said would...

Ahhh patch error 47! Looking at your screenshot, you have Norton Internet Security installed, the most likely cause of the problem is then that Norton hasn't updated the firewall rule to allow MxO access to the internet again. Normally you...

There's a discusion on the forum ranks in this thread but the jist of the answer to your question is your rank goes up with a combination of posts and the length of time your a member of the forum. I can't find the current requirements for...

Glad you got it sorted! Out of curiosity, where did the other client you originally installed come from (as really it shouldn't have made any difference!) Jeffers

Or if you haven't got it sorted yet and still have the error, try jumping on live chat at http://help.station.sony.com/cgi-bi...nduser/live.php providing it is still open and they should be able to fix it. If it has closed you could also t...

If rebooting doesn't fix the problem then can you post the info requested in the thread at the top of the forum called Read Before Posting. That way we can suggest more accurately what might fix it. Jeffers

Whether you use Firefox or not, the Launcher still uses Internet Explorer for it's patch server calls. Therefore if Internet Explorer is set to Work Offline, the launcher won't be able to connect to the patch server. Jeffers

Additionally, although this shouldn't really be an issue, make sure that they have directX 9.0c installed as well. Jeffers

Sounds like the crew name you are trying to use already exists on the server. Tried picking a different crew name? If so, then might be best to fill out an in-game support ticket and ask whats going on. Jeffers

Instead of write clicking on the launcher.exe file, go up one directory and right click on it and select properties. Then try unticking the Read Only box shown there. If prompted apply it to all files and subdirectories and click ok. If th...

TBH Roukan I'm not sure where else to head with why it has started doing it. All the obvious things I can think of you've discounted, if no drivers have changed and nothing else has changed then I don't know what else to suggets. The last...

No, the US one opens at 10am PST, the EU one opens at 7AM PST (which works out at about 3pm GMT) Either that or the Knowledgebase article is out of date which is of course possible. Jeffers

What's your Internet Explorer settings like at the moment? You could try going to Tools -> Internet Options, Security and just try resetting all the zones to Default unless there is a good reason for one of them being changed from default....

Yeah what Procurator said about the difference being indicated in-game by whether you were using aim or actually in-game was what I was trying to indicate with the same sort effect being passed the station launcher. Jeffers

Could one of you try the suggestions I made in this post . I don't know whether any of them will help because we never got a response as to whether it worked or not. Thanks, Jeffers

Using Application Recovery - Driver Installation Jeffers

You'll need to post it over 4/5 posts. Jeffers

Hmm see you've got norton internet security, just check that isn't locked down and also check it has a rule in place for launcher.exe and matrix.exe. Additionally check that Internet Explorer isn't set to work offline. That can cause the s...

Anybody else still getting this error now after the patch? Jeffers

This is normally caused by a firewall blocking the port. If you have a firewall installed, make sure it is allowing Launcher.exe access to the internet. If you have Zone Alarm installed, sometimes it doesn't detect that Launcher.exe has ch...

What type of processor do you have? I'm trying to remember (it's been a while since I looked) if my P4 Hyperthreaded processor registers use above 50% or not, I'll have to check next time i'm in game. It could be the game's tied to one pro...

Think Paige6 has hit the nail on the head. Most likely a graphics card which doesn't fully support directX or using out of date drivers/version of directX. Try running windowed mode like Paige6 said and the mouse will almost certainly appe...

Played arround with my details a bit more yesterday and found out that you can't delete it if it is associated with any subscription. Jeffers

If you keep trying you can get to the subscription info, but seems that there's a couple of problems in the system. We'll probably have to wait until tommorow for them to be sorted out though. Jeffers

Had a look round and I can't see anywhere to delete the cards. Now I'm not sure whether that is because all the cards on my account have been used at one point to pay for my subscription. Best way to find out would be to use live chat on M...

Just check Internet Explorer hasn't been set to work offline as that causes the launcher to freeze at that point. The only other thing that might be causing it is your firewall blocking it at some point, but my best guess would point to IE...

Don't see why not, a few people have 2 accounts and while it may be more common for people to have 2 cards nowadays, I still only use 1 card for purchasing online. Jeffers

Ouch, shows how often I visit this forum at the bottom of the page. :p Never noticed it before, but I use aim mail and get the same thing. Reason I never noticed it before is that I hate most of the aim mail system, I'm an old netscape use...

Hmmm, not sure what would be causing it, especially if it works the second time without running a full system check or anything. I guess the launcher and client versions are both 7.5611, other then running a full system check again now not...

So no crew is listed anywhere? Not sure what to suggest other then try submitting another CCR and seeing if another GM has a better idea. Jeffers
