I can't play on my HP desktop which is XP but I can on the new laptop which is Vista. Both are HP. The server just came back up and I still get the microsoft error message on my desktop. Boo Hoo

So, maybe it is HP, with XP. Now, they should be reading our threads. We may be on to something! (my HP still shows all servers are busy)

I had two days (Saturday and Sunday) where I couldn't play my main pirate, but it worked when I tried it again on Monday night, and it continues to work for me.

This is what I keep getting everytime I try to launch.

Yup Magnet, many of us are getting that exact same message before we even get to the "Create a pirate" screen.

Only if they would have fixed this bug on the 1081 patch.

I got pretty excited when I read the updates and really thought I would get to play tonight but alas, evil microsoft message again - just like many others, can't get to choose a pirate screen.

Day 5... same problem...same message as Magnet and a whole lot of others.

I don't know why, I have been able to play all of my pirates the whole time. Did have trouble getting into the forest for two days(don't get to play every day) but last night was able to get in. Now, if I could just find Tia Dalma.
I am on an XP desktop, nothing special, so no help here, I still do not see very many high levels. I am still at level 10, how do you guys level up so fast? I am in AWE! I am stick getting some guys arm and that island is crawling with Giant Crabs!! Please PM me with any hints or tips you might have.

On my HP computers, I still get the evil Microsoft message. I can play on a Dell computer. Anyone know a lot about graphics? The game log mentions graphics problem.

Magnet · #11 05-24-2007, 08:45 PM

I am not able to play on my HPs either...what model Dell is it that works for you? What OS is running on it? Maybe we can identify something specific and develop a work around.

Mine has been working fine on a built computer. Perhaps I will download the game on the work computer (slow Dell) to see if it works for me.

Maggie Mchazzard · #13 05-25-2007, 12:53 AM

Mine isn't a gaming machine, just a Dell Dimesion 4600 P4 3 GHz.

I had to create a new pirate in order to play, but since doing so (Tuesday night) I have had no major issues. Bums me out though because Maggie had tons of gold and a nice ride, but she couldn't do any tasks, she got bugged very early on. This new guy, William Wildfoote has been able to grind thru tasks with few issues, booted a few times while sailing, but nothing like what I am reading ya'll are going through.

Don't know if this info. helps at all, but there ya go.

My hubby's Dell is a Dimension E510, with XP. My HP is 3+ years old. Has a Radeon 9800? graphics card. 128 RAM. My other is one year + old. Dell is less than a year. All XP.

I just do not know anything about computers!
