I have tried every single solution you all have given me, and unfortunately nothing. It's not working. Yes I am running XP, and compatibility mode was never on.

I have unstalled the game several times, deleted the registry entry, redownloaded all the files necessary. The problem still persists. Nothing works. Keep in mind that the first night I installed all the files that I was actually able to log onto the server!!! Now I can't.

I'm currently reformatting another drive for the sole purpose of playing OP. I'll keep you guys informed.

Very strange. Many of us use XP, including myself. Never had any problems what so ever like you're having. Maybe let install into the default directory...?
Donno, I'm a long way from being a Tech type. I just put the disk in and let it go...
Hope you get it figured out.

This is exactly the same problem i had; I too could log into certain servers, but any that had the exe in the validation folder had me locked out.

Are you absolutely certain that the compatibility box is not checked? Also, check that the start in folder is correct.

When you've gone through the whole game in and out as many times in a small amount of time as I have, you remember what's checked, what's not checked, what's there, what's not there.

The compatibility is not checked! All the shortcut destinations, registry locations, everything concerning the game, was correct!!!

I am going to attempt installing the game on another hard drive. I just got the drive up and running and fully updated with MS updates. Let's see what happens.

Hope you get it working!

You and me both. I will keep you all informed.

Ok. Here is what I have done.

1.) I have reformatted an old 13 gig with Windows 2000 and have updated the sucker with everything possible from Microsoft. Since this drive will be used for OP playing only, I don't see a need for installing my traditional utilities, such as my standard firewall or anti-virus.

2.) I have redownloaded all the files, from the 2552 patch to FireSoul's OP+ 4.0 shiplist, to Dizzy's latest SGO4 release, and even redownloaded EzINI.

3.) When attempting to log onto the test server, I saw that it wasn't up. So until the test server or the actual campaign server is up, I'll have to wait and see if OP on this hard drive will work.

I will keep everyone informed.
