EDIT NUMBER 2 =======================
This is for the Vietnamese version of Silkroad. However it may also work on other SRO languages.
After formating my disk for the second time....I was still getting the
"????????error message"

VERY IMPORTANT............!!!
The last thing I did fixed the problem... I download the "Fonts" file on the
download page of silkroad vn.....
Then extract the zip file. A file will come up with a lot of "font files" in it.
Those files also need to be extracted...(a 2nd extraction)
After that there is an install file at the top of the list....you will see it.....Just install the fonts.
===== This instantly fixed the problem ===== TRY THIS FIRST ====
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
HERE IS ALL THE STUFF I DID FIRST............!
1. All Windows updates.
2. Update video card and audio card and motherboard drivers.
3. Make sure the game resolution matches your monitor resolution.
4. Turn off sound in the game.
5. Make the 4 Silkroad files "compatable with windows 98/me" in the D.E.P. area.
6. Install and run CCleaner.
7. Make adjustments on your video card settings.
8. Make Silkroad an exception in the firewall. go to "run"...type in wscui.cpl then add exceptions.
9. Update the Directx drivers to Directx SDK (9.0c)
10. Delete 'Silkroad error sender" file.
11. I also tried turning off D.E.P. totally....did not seem to make a difference.
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
now.............having done all of that.....I am convinced it was the lack of "font files" that caused the whole problem. You be the judge of that.
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

my best to all reading this......hope it helps.......mj

Do u get ??? error when u r in exp/item share pt? If yes, the solution is: Press Esc-->Options-->Setting-->Game settings-->unmark Party buff status. That's all.

Hope i helped:)
