So my intergrated video + sound computer not good enough to run PWI until the next patch. I was trying to get help because some think they could get it to work. Nothing new other than the pasty telling me to wait till the next patch. The mods let me get "tore-up" for AWHILE. Very forgiving imo. I guess I shouldn't try the patience of the patientless(<---did I spell that right?)

Are you guys going to deal whith the corupt verify tool in the next patch? It runs through the same files several times and delays the process.

    We did our best to help you with what you gave us. You were quite unwilling to post anything specific in the least bit. Guess what? I run intergrated sound cards, and my Intel pc (my old one) had a integrated gpu as well. I haven't had any problems, and when I did I knew HOW to ask for help. Now, I will try this ONE more time, and that's it. Post your PC specs and MAYBE we can get you back ingame BEFORE the next patch. But this really depends on how cooperative YOU want to be.

    XP Service Pack 3 Home Edition

    Pentium 4 2.6 GHz

    512mb RAM

    SoundMax Intergrated Digital Audio

    Intel(R) 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphic Controller

    Direct X 9.0c

    Pretty much did every check of windows and drivers possible. Computer running ultra trim. Pages load instantly on forums. Re-installed everything sept the OS. Game doesn't want to stops crashing and zero sound. Verify still running through files more than once and takes forever. Tired of playing around with this. Tell me what to do.

    Also, just curious, why does PWI not show up in ADD or REMOVE and gets installed in my documents?

    When you unistall the software and re-install it does problems with it occur?

    I have three identical computers. one has the patcher issue one doesn't. oh wait, one is running win7 64-bit, and on the two that are running Vista 32-bit, only one has the issue. Just close the box and click start. It's a very minor annoyance and not something to get all bent about.

    oh btw, all have integrated sound cards.

    P.S. get more ram. integrated video is sucking your ram. you should have a gig minimum.

    Thought about getting more ram and a video card for this but meh...rather get new junk. Looked at some riggs but 64 bit Windows 7 still not correct. I like to wait to get stuff till it works. Just like HD TV finally coming with the proper LED sets. Next year I prob get a new rigg and set. Until then I would like to play perfect world. What you said is of little help I'm afraid.

    Actually you can get mem chips for your build for like 15 bucks or less. You would be amazed at the amount of difference an extra gig or two will make. and your HD performance will go up too because it's not thrashing your HD writing mem to cache all the time. Also prevents your swap file from fragging the **** out of your HD.

    BTW, Win7 64-bit totally rocks the house.

    I wouldn't spend 15 bucks on more mem for this thing. Waste of money imo. I need added video performance and not getting it from this over more mem. PCIexpress and a ton more mem where its at. I researched builds and spoke to tech guys and I need to wait on 64 bit Windows 7.

    Got anything to help with the sound and crashing issues?

    you HAVE to get more ram, pwi needs more memory. that's why it's crashing. PWIneeds 1gb EXCLUSIVE

    Oh yeah...I did crash the game a couple of times pressing that stoopid windows key at the bottom left of board. Looked up how to turn it off and its REALLY complicated.

    Please see the patching and install info in our FAQ.

    Please review the antivirus info too. Link below \/

    Please let us know exactly what you tried, and what errors you got.

    You can in theory play it ok on your current system config, but you are straining your system and making it work harder then it needs to, which can contribute to malfunctions. Adding more RAM might help.

    You can send us a ticket to Tech Support here: http://support.perfectworld.com/ticketing

    We'll take a look at your system and see what is going on hopefully, ok? b:pleased

    So sad...no PWI after patch. Even ran a Uniblue driver scanner and released the compressed files during utility. Sound works fine for everything on my computer but PWI and it crashes instantly when I try to click stuff. So very dissappointed.

    No PWI for me. I've pretty much did everything.
