Have u tried the SERACH in this forum.. there are lots of ppl who use VISTA and they have posted the same prob before....

[SuCKa]

yeah but a lot of the stuff i tried and it doesn't work so im asking if anyone knows something new that could help me out

[truez]

ok, lets c,
Does this happen only wit SRO or any other online games?

I need more system specifications?
Ur internet speed?
Any changes u did?
Has this been the same problem for a long time or after any installation (of any softwares) or modifications are u noticing this prob??

Incase if u have another comp, have u checkd if u can log in with out any issues?

[SuCKa]

it only happens wit sro, my comp is a 32 bit operating system if that helps, uh processor is intel core 2 and 1.6 GHz and i changed the game to the xp version and made it adminstrator but it still didnt help and its been happening pretty long, and it works on another comp but thats xp does this help??

Kewl, thanks for the info.
Looks like ur video card is locking up the game ... ok do this..

Go to START > RUN > in the open box, type in dxdiag and hit enter.
It wuld open up the DIRECTX DIAGNOSTIC TOOL.
Then click on SAVE ALL INFORMATION. U can save this file on ur desktop.
Then open the file and copy these info and post it here,
1. System Information
2. Display Devices
3. Sound Devices

One more question, you had mentioned that OS was downgraded from Vista to Win XP, have u installed all drivers?
Ok lets check this too -
Go to START > SETTINGS > CONTROL PANEL > SYSTEM > HARDWARE > DEVICE MAGAGER.
In the device manager, u get a list of components tatz right now connected to the computer...
So tell me is there any devices that has an yellow question mark (someting like this ) that is next to devices?

Or post a screen shot of ur device manager.

did u find anything??

[SuCKa]

there was no question marks there

[truez]

Hey, it still looks like ur using Windows Vista?
Well im not sure abt vista... i dont use vista.... moreover i have heard Vista has loads of issues for SRO.
On one of the posts, i have seen others mentioning that u need to set ur compatability mode to Windows 98 or XP .. set this and then check.

May b as an alternative.. u can create a dual boot of Windows XP and Windows Vista and play the game with Windows XP.

Hope this helps.
