Where'd you get your download copy?

Have you tried "uninstalling" it, then blowing away the directory and any Registry keys related to SoR before attempting to reinstall again?

I'm assuming the answer to Zerlin's first two questions are Windows XP and Yes (logged in as administrator/owner)...

i got my copy form this ryzom site itself., i tried uninstalling using ryzoms uninstaller and when i reinstalled it and tried patching again it did not work.

yes i am admin and yes xp

Wasn't mentioned, so I'll ask:

After using the unistaller, did you reboot AND delete the installation directory (typically C:\Program Files\Ryzom\) before attempting the re-install?

Also, using regedit, remove the Ryzom related tree (My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Neverax) Not much in it, but best to start clean.

Also, do you have sufficient free disk space to support the patching process? Don't know how efficient Ryzom's patcher is, but I like to make sure I have enough space to hold a second full copy of the executables and DLLs, plus 10-times the size of the patch files (assuming they are compressed).
(Edited to correct size of patch file space)

i will try the registry thing and i will restart and delete the folder and see if it works. that thing i is the fact i jsut tried it on my dads comp and i patched and it worked fine. sucs.
