I turned off UAC, but still cannot connect to SoD.

Been playing it on my old comp and loving it, really wish I could be playing on my new one :[


Anything else that could possible be interfering with SoD that has to do with vista? : /


I'm on vista home premium, so I could only do your first step : /

I don't use Vista, so I don't really know for sure.

But we've narrowed it down a little anyway. We know it's not your provider or your router.

Check that your vista is configured IP wise the same as your old machine. Or at least, make sure the vista machine isn't configured any funky ways for IP. Probably best if it's set to let the router assign it an IP address.

Also, on that, make sure you don't have the router set to do anything funky with that machine.

Got it set to obtain ip automatically.

It's a misconception that UAC does anything related to networking. All UAC does is prompts you if you try to run a program that requires administrative privileges (which the patcher does, to patch the files in the Program Files directory). Therefore, disabling UAC will do nothing to help with your error 1001.

How are you running SoD? Are you running the eqgame.exe directly or running the patcher? Have you tried a fresh install of Titanium?
