The Champions Online launcher keeps crashing right as I start it. I have reinstalled Champions Online numerous times, and i know the installation works because i installed it on another computer and it works just fine. I have completely updated Windows XP and Direct X. I also am sure my computer fits the system requirements. Yet the launcher continues to crash.

    It says to send a crash report to help them figure out what is wrong. The error ticket ID: comes up as unknown unless i turn off McAfee. Even with McAfee turned off, when i hit submit, nothing else happens, and the ticket is closed and seems as if deleted. And how do i get to the crash logs?

    Oddly enough I am getting an error similar to this one.
    For some reason the launcher is crashing whenever it tries to patch CO. And it also crashes when I try to patch STO.

    not much to add lLoneWolf217

    You hardware looks to be ok. I not sure what the latest driver for the ATI is but I would try uninstalling the driver. reboot to safe mode use a driver removal type program (there is a couple out there and people have thier preferance) to remove any lingering driver files. then install the latest driver.

    You can also see about downlaoding the latest DirectX End-User Runtime at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3

    I also seen post of people fixing ATI card problems with the game by using the catalyst control panel to reset to factory defaults

    Make sure you have the latest version of Internet Explorer, the launcher uses that to work, it seems that you have an old version of it.

    you should start a new thread instead of necro one a year old. post a dxdiag report of your system but basicly it looks like your video card or driver is unable to support the game.

    repair the error on my pc, what you should do is close the launcher, then use ccleaner to clean all the records, because it is a problem in the records, that I read in other forums, once cleansed records of your PC, open the launcher and it works ...

    if you got the ccleaner: http://ccleaner.com.es/

    Tried that to version what I downloaded from steam and CO own version and nothing.
    Still gives the same error for me.

    I'm running Win 7 Ult. 64bit
    and hardware is under 1 year old.

    I'm pretty sure that its not OS or hardware problem.

    Interesting, some sort of Direct 3D error it seems. Doing my best to look into this, but not the easiest thing to pin down. I read something about another game where someone had to manually edit a config file (usually a text file in your game folder).

    So perhaps you can try the following?
    Only start the game in fullscreen, at a low resolution, only one active monitor, disable any crossfire or sli ....I can't gaurantee any of this, but could worth a try. I'll keep looking around the web for related errors. ;)

    and i know the installation works because i installed it on another computer and it works just fine.

    Hello LoneWolf217,

    From your statement above, you prove that the install is fine, however, you also prove that the "issue" is indeed related to the computer to which you're having issues with. In a nutshell, it's the computer, not the software we're dealing with.

    That being said, This error is directly related to your C++ OLE Library. In essence, it's broke. You see, the computer uses .dll files as road signs if you will. When you double click on a shortcut on your desktop, like say Outlook so that you can access your email, the computer sends a request to the CPU to launch Outlook. In a perfect world, Outlook would launch and you'd be able to go about your business as usual. However, when you have a broken .dll file, 3 things can occur:
    1. Nothing happens
    2. A totally different program is accessed
    3. Or you get an error message

    In this case, you're getting the error message as referenced by your following post:
    Nvm found, in the CRASH file i found this

    100113 01:46:20 1 MasterControlProgram[1]: Shutting down: C:\src\Core\CrypticLauncher\patcher.c(97)

    in errors file i see this at many different times

    100113 02:06:06 1 MasterControlProgram[1]: OLE failed to initialize: 1
    100113 02:06:06 2 MasterControlProgram[1]: Shutting down from fatal error "OLE failed to initialize: 1"
    100113 04:14:27 1 MasterControlProgram[1]: OLE failed to initialize: 1
    100113 04:14:27 2 MasterControlProgram[1]: Shutting down from fatal error "OLE failed to initialize: 1"

    ok and i found the dxdiag but what do i post from it?

    Naturally, dxdiag and DirectX in general have nothing to do with this issue. This is all related to your C++ OLE Library.

    How does this happen? Good question! Sadly, there's a multitude of different reasons why this might happen. One of the most common reasons is that your OS is corrupted. OS Corruption occurs when the user(s) doesn't regularly conduct computer maintenance, such as deleting temporary files and things like this.

    How do I fix my OS? Another good question, however the answer isn't one that most folks like to hear, much less consider, which is of course; Reformat.

    Now, I'm not the type of person to simply go, hey man, your stuff is broke, reformat, unfortunately this issue doesn't really allow for much elbow room if you will, thus the quickest and easiest method is to reformat.

    My suggestion: If you can, backup your sensitive data to a removable harddrive and reformat. If you don't have anything worth saving, go ahead with the reformat. Reinstall XP and go from there.

    If you'd like to learn more about the C++ OLE Runtime Library, please see these pages on Microsoft.com:

    One more thing of note: Thanks to this post:
    Time of this report: 1/12/2010, 20:07:31
    Machine name: KREVIN-NINO

    DxDiag Version: 5.03.2600.5512 32bit Unicode

    I can see that you do have some corruption going on here, unless of course you don't know how to set your clock in Windows. As you can see from the report above, your computer thinks that the date of process of this report was in fact 1/12/2010, 20:07:31 which we all know is not correct, unless of course you didn't do the report recently, which I doubt. That of course brings me back to OS corruption.

    Another item of note is that your version of DirectX isn't up to snuff. You might want to update DirectX from Microsoft.com and attempt to launch once again, however, I really doubt that will fix your issue. I also took the liberty of bolding your Service Pack information from your quote above. I've never, ever advocated for any of my customers to update their XP beyond SP 2. There are many reasons why but the most important one is the simple fact that XP SP 2 is not only stable, but exceptionally robust. In laymans terms: SP 1 sucks, SP 3 sucks, SP 2 good. Sadly, the only way to "go back" to a previous Service Pack is not to uninstall it, but to reformat and not update past SP 2. I don't care what anyone says, sure you can "uninstall" SP 3, but it will not revert back to SP 2 without leaving a bunch of unwanted, craptacular files from SP 3 on there which of course interfere with the standard operations of the computer itself. This will of course lead to OS corruption.

    I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news my friend, however there's no real "nice" way to put this.

    Best of luck and I really hope that my post has helped you out in one way or another.

    Necromancy of a twice dead thread?

    You've been at this too long. Get back to the game and relax.

    We bring up a dead thread cuz in the past 2 years not a single person has been able to figure out this issue...2 years of time to research this issue and no answer = fail in anybodys book. :confused: Then I go to STO forums and get a fix within one day. If you are running Teamviewer, unistall it. The End.

    Were there any specific reason for that personal attack other than that your opinion differs from mine?

    same problem, was fine before the recent patch.
    once i hit play, screen enlarges and goes black, then cryptic error comes up...
    close with task manager, start again, it asks me if i want to verify ..
    my wife sat next to me has no problems running it..
    but like i say, before the patch it was fine.

    This was my exact problem. I don't run Teamviewer but I do run Display Fusion. I uninstalled and reinstalled, no luck. Clicked and unclicked every possible combination of checkboxes in the Options of the launcher.

    If you run Display Fusion you must do the following.

    Right click the DisplayFusion icon in your system tray and pick settings.
    Go to the Compatibility tab.
    Click Add
    Add both \Users\Public\Games\Cryptic Studios\CrypticError.exe
    and \Users\Public\Games\Cryptic Studios\ChampionsOnline.exe
    (adjust the path as necessary)
    Uncheck all the all the boxes.
    And OK your way out of it.
    CO should run fine with DisplayFusion after that.

    THANK YOU SO MUCH BLAKERS1984
