Ok, today I start up my computer and get on silkroad. It starts up I log in. I select my char press enter and get the ?????????? error IN THE FIRST SPLIT SECOND AFTER LOGGING ON :x . I think "ok no big deal." So I start up SRO again log in choose my char again and the same thing happens. I thought maybe the server is just messed or somthing. So later on throughout the day I tried to get on with the same result. Then finaly at the end of the day I decide to try using another comp to play and guess what? smooth log in with no ?????? error. So I was like oh it should work on my comp now so i logged on on my comp again and got the ??????? again. From this i gather that it is probly something to do with my computer. HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Thank You :D

try updating your drivers to the ones in the launcher never again use the ones in the page since they ware old (this step is only if you have a nvidia or ati card )

Ok I have 2 graphics cards a nVidia GeForce 6800 and a 7800 GTX. I updated the 6800. Then I went and installed the driver for the 7800 GTX and it didnt show up on the device manager and the 6800 did. :banghead:

Ehh you can only have one graphic card unless you are using a sli system but for those sli system you need 2 cards of the same model :roll:

I am having the exact friggin godd*mn problem. Since the update I have not been able to play this game, my gold ticket is being wasted.

As soon as I log in and Hotan appears to show the game closes and ????? comes up. I have an Nvidia 5600 FX and I've reinstalled the latest driver from Nvidia, reinstalled .NET framework 2 (which some claim fixed their problems), reinstalled SRO .... still can't play this game.

Well I managed to fix it after completely reinstalling Windows XP (dont worry I have like nothing on my computer 8) ). Ya I basically did that and found updates for all my drivers.
