Same here its built into the motherboard but thank god I recalled having vent and a fleet member told me that if it is the graphics card I can bypass the built in and add another one and use that. But if that is the case I would have to buy the cheapest one as I really dont have the money to buy one even a good one
I'm not as lucky as you. I run from laptop and can't jam in any card at all. I need to use a laptop for portability reasons and can't afford to buy a new laptop every 2 years. BTW I didn't see Brandon's post before posting, I was referring to some of the posts that were made this weekend.
I'm just hoping I won't be one of the insignificant people who have to go to hell because they don't have the latest fastest computer (yes going without STO is like hell lol).
ok I don't know how many of us there are having this problem but I am pitching my voice in to the crowd. my game will not launch stalls at 75 % on the cryptic load screen I have uninstalled it 5 times now and am attempting some of the suggestions others have made. However so far nothing. I expect reparations from cryptic and perfect world for this. I am a life time member and lead of one of the more prolific fleets in the game. Get this fixed cryptic! get it fixed quick. Branflakes Your our voice! Get us answers liaison.

We've already been told, indirectly, that they don't care about us minorities.
When I launcher STO and it goes through the patching phase, if I close the window before I engage, then restart the launcher with the verify switched on, it will still try to patch 1 file, dx3dx9_37.dll, I've looked up what this file is which is a DirectX file. Does anyone else get this, or similar?
think i see that but it just flies way too fast to get a good look at what it says
We've already been told, indirectly, that they don't care about us minorities.
I'm pretty sure I told you the exact opposite. I can empathize with your frustration; I have been playing STO since CB and not being able to play would be very upsetting. We are working as hard as we can to resolve this issue.
Just a quick hello from those of us who can't even access the game at all because we are trapped with the eternal patching issue. (the good old stopped at 64% then DC from server, then rinse repeat forever thing).
Are you guys also working on this issue, assuming they are in fact two separate, unrelated bugs? A simple yes or no from the PWE spokesperson will do as an answer for now.
A simple roll back the patch and fix the issue would be the answer at the moment. But they stated they won't because the minority isn't cared about, but only our $$$.
Alright, you really need to calm down some. Take a breather, take a walk. It's not personal and it shouldn't be taken that way.
Are we annoyed? Yes.
Should we be compensated? Yes... I'd even go so far as to say something besides a title like "The 107" got would be nice, maybe some free dilithium or Zen instead.
Do we need to be snapping at Brandon or anyone else? Not really. It's kind of like getting hostile with the secretary; all it does is make them less inclined to be helpful when they might have started out otherwise.

Is one calm when they're being cheated? No. When it comes to me being cheated, yes I take it personal especially when they try to blame it on my hardware. My hardware is not the reason it keeps crashing for me. It's their patch that has caused it. After 4 days I have yet to see any evidence that anything is being done.

Ever heard of a weekend, do you ever get days off? We are ALL in same boat. We have ALL missed out on events, dili, even our own fleet promotions and events. They are working on it.
Branflakes with blueberries and milk sounds tasty about right now!! nomnomnom :eek::D
I've talked to a few people, ones that can play the game but are having other issues since the patch. (Graphics messing up, excessive slowness, lag, etc) So there may be more issues than the obvious ones. The gamers just choose to ignore the problems because they are addicted!!

I rarely get a day of, two if I'm lucky. However, I can guarantee they have more than one single person working. If they are working on it, I want to see proof instead of the standard message we've been getting.

See Post #315, Pg. 32. Can't just wave a magic wand and make everything all better. Fix probably won't be out til Thursday at earliest.

I agree! We MUST see the live stream of them working on this as well as the lashing and whippings that people are getting because of this! There must be BLOOD spilt over this! They must pay and we MUST see this! Free flights to your office to watch and a weekend pass to Disneyland would also be nice.

Yes it could. Roll back the patch and figure out WTF in tribble. They choose not to do so, because we supposedly are the minority. That is the immediate fix.

And jack up 5 days of 1000s of other non effected players?? Not Logical. The needs of the many out weigh the needs of the few or the one.

Either that or compensation. As I have yet to see any fixes, or any new information, in 4 days. Roll back the patch and find out what ya'll screwed up. Plus, i have no proof on players getting through. So roll it back and fix this mess.
It is not a 'fix'. They do that, then everyone that could play over the weekend would now be the ones starting threads asking why they lost their shards, dilithium, fleet gear, etc.
Cryptic is a business, they have to do what is best for the business. Like it or not, that means that sometimes people have to deal with situations until they can be resolved to the benefit of everyone, not just a 'minority'.

Q does not work for Cryptic, can't just fix problem with a wave of hand. Contacted other members of my fleet. Only a few unable to get on. Others complain of increase lag ONLY just after patch, became fine later in WEEKEND.

Yet I am having my money stolen from me due to, I repeat again, their TRIBBLE up which they have no immediate plans on fixing. I'll I've seen on their end is the standard "TRIBBLE you" message. We tried their "tips" 4 days ago, and in that time they have wielded nothing new. All while they have time to introduce a new season/ships/etc. they can't fix their own TRIBBLE up, nor can that admit to said TRIBBLE up.

Again see post #315, pg. 32. That's the most recent info. Set Phasers to CHILLAX.
We will not be rolling back that patch, as that would most likely mean we would be rolling back everyone's progress from the weekend. As others have pointed out, only a very small percent of players are affected; However, we are treating the issue as our top priority as if everyone was affected -- it's all hands on deck for our Engineers. I am on the email thread about the issue between the Engineers and they are investigating and working to triage.
Cheers,

Why can't only the program code be rolled back and not the user data?
Isn't the user data like count of EC and dilithium for each user kept in separate files from the executable program code?
If it's not separate then it should be!

Ever try and change a car tire while it DRIVING down freeway. same thing

That's essentially what we were told before the weekend. There is nothing new there. I will "chill" either when A) I have been compensated for their TRIBBLE up They roll back
They have not given me any proof that it's being worked on, heck they can't even admit they screwed up. All I have been told is that it's a problem with my machine. Funny how it all worked until the patch on the 3rd and they haven't done anything to fix their TRIBBLE up.

That is complete BS. When a patch is released there is no change in all your personal stuff. Essentially all they have to do is re-release the last patch and fix this one.

p.s. has anyone noticed patches that crash, tends to happen during events? LOL
