i cant play sro on windows vista please help!

Windows Vista has lots of problems playin SRO. U can check on http://www.silkroadonline.net for what they have to say for using Windows Vista, i think u gotta wait for some patch and dont ask me when

Nice to know that u got a new comp
What is S-Video Out?
Not to confuse u, S-Video is a cable connection for Video output may b on a TV.

BTW since ur comp is new, y dont u get ur company people to set it up for u

the freezing is happening alot more often now
to the point where its really frustrating to play[/quote]

Ooops sorry i was kinda travelling a lot these days with minimal access to internet..... tatz y culd reply earlier..

Ok do tis,
1. Go to START, click Run, type msconfig in the Open box, and then click OK.
2. Go to STARTUP TAB
3. Uncheck items that u think u dont need them .. u can actually uncheck all of them... <NOTE - It does not remove any items or programs from ur computer it just disables them, u can still use them by goin to START > PROGRAMS (ALL PROGRAMS) and access them.>
4. Reboot ur computer and connect to the game and c the oerformance.

hey, so i have a computer i built about 2 or 3 years back, was running silkroad about 2 hours ago, exited, and then when tried to get it running agian, i got an error with alot of strange characters about 50% of the time i boot, the other 50% the game loads, and once it has loaded i can put in my info, but it will not connect to the server, can you help me?

and my computer is a sempron 2500+, at 2 ghz, a gig of ram, 120 and 200 gig hard drives, ati x800, so i know hardware is not the issue, and i was running it just hours earlier.

and have been playing silkroad for awhile, been playing alot the last week, so i know the other login times were not just flukes.

Is there any problem with ur internet connections > is it dropping off?? Can you check with ur ISP? Ask them to reset ur settings and then check and lemme know.
What Operating System is running (win XP or win 2k ..) ??

Well i am not sure if u had time to go thru other posts, i have already mentioned earlier, there are probs with WINDOWS Vista loading SRO, all i can say at this point of time is check this LINK.

When I try to start Silkroad, a pop-up comes up saying
"Detected Abnormal Process..(System Error)"


Age: Almost 6 years
RAM: 640 MB
Graphics Card: Radeon 9600SE 128 MB (does not have pixel shaders)
System: AMD Athlon Processor 1.3 GHz
OS: Windows XP Pro

On Wednesday, when I first tried to run Silkroad.exe, a pop-up came up saying "Detected Abnormal Process..(System Error)". I somehow was able to overcome this problem by updating the client. How I did that, I'm not really sure. I double-clicked sro_client.exe in the Silkroad folder a few times even though the first few times it told me in another pop-up to start up Silkroad. The last few times I double-clicked on Wednesday it updated for me (at least I think that's where it opens the client to update...is Silkroad something like Ragnarok Online?) On Thursday, my sister said she tried running Silkroad.exe and it worked with no problems. Today (Friday), I tried starting Silkroad and it is again displaying the "Detected Abnormal Process..(System Error)" pop-up. I tried what I did on Wednesday, but it's steadfastingly not cooperating with me by displays of both "Detected Abnormal Process..(System Error)" when I start Silkroad.exe and "Please Execute the Silkroad.exe." when I double-click sro_client.exe.


PS: I downloaded the full install listed on silkroadonline.net through utorrent.

Thanks for your help!




Update: I uninstalled and reinstalled Silkroad and tried starting it from the desktop shortcut it provided me after it finished. Same error.

New Update: Amazing. Two clicks and all my problems were gone. After looking on google about this issue, I found some help on this forum. LOL. It was all my fault because I was searching for too specific a topic: "Detected Abnormal Process..(System Error)." "detected abnormal process" was just fine T_T

So my Q is what is more inportant for the fast tels less lag if you have a great conn but the pc is :


Ram:256
Video:Gforce mx 440
CPU:celeron 1.7

Since its a new dell dimension system, u can call up DELL and tell them ur OS needs to be repaired.... give them the exact error and they should be able to guide u thru...

ONE MORE THING - Dell will want u go to theor SOFTWARE SUPPORT (they charge for this)... dont pay them... jus tell them to help u out in repairing ur OS....

I have had my comp for 3 yrs and i have played sro without problem for all 3, lately when i play, irregular objects come out of ground, and every time i grind, it frooze for 15 secs, and when it comes back i am dead on floor.
