Computer not launching character set
Posted: Wed Sep 28, 2011 6:22 am
I'm running a 6 box, 4 on 1, and 1 each on the other 2 computers. Followed all the steps in the "connecting multiple computers" guide and can get EQ2 to launch on all but 1 of my computers. Might have something to do with the fact I had to change the name of the computer (it was the exact same name as my main computer) and it was becoming somewhat confusing. Once the name got changed, the software recognized the new name in the search for new computers. But for some reason the Innerspace software seems not able to recognize the change in the uplink name field (still lists the old name).
I don't even know if this is the issue or not but I thought I'd mention it.
I even changed the name in the "Inner Space uplink name (if different) box" to the new name I gave the computer since it had the old computer name listed in there. Still won't launch/work. This computer also had the distinction of having had Windows Vista on it just a day ago (maybe its cursed now??) which was such a stubborn POS to deal with networking-wise I had to spend $126 frickin dollars to upgrade to 7. Now with a fresh download of Windows 7 it seems to have connected fine to the Windows 7 homegroup I am using for the other 2 computers so it would appear that the networking aspect is not the issue either. So I am at a loss atm as to what the problem really is. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Thanks in advance.
