I asked this on the "Issues, Localization...." thread but I'd like to get as many opinions as I can....
So I was having issues with EVE...the game window wouldn't come up when I was trying to play. I could hear the login menu but couldn't see it. Anyway, I unistalled the game. I have the box version of EVE with the Game Time card. It won't let me install the game from the cd now. And I can't use the Time Code because it's being used...by me obviously. Can I download the game with the "Eve Download" tab under EVE Client? Is it "Tranquility"? Will that reinstall EVE to my pc so I can play again? I have Vista, 32-bit. Anyone, EVE player or CCP rep I could sure use some help. I'm not a computer wiz and am not sure which way to go with this.

yeah, ok. EVE was working like s**t today for me. Kept getting disconnected or the "socket closed". Any other application you can unistall then reinstall. It should work the same way. My account is still open...I just need to get the game back on my pc. The cd won't do it so it should work if I download it. Just looking for a real answer or suggestion.

The install on this site (tranqulity) is the exact same client you buy in the store. Install from here and log in with your user name/pass and see if that helps.

There was a bunch of posts where eve would start minimized and wouldnt un minimize. I dont remember how they fixed it but I bet you can find it with a little digging.

Thanks. I've been doing that while I waited for a response. It's taking forever though. My internet is moving slow for some reason. Do you have any ideas why I couldn't just reinstall from the disk?

btw don't even bother to try to come back, he's new and or he may not be a forum ***** like yourself so probably doesn't know cross posting is frowned upon.
As for the OP yes Tranquility is the main server if you wanted to go ahead with downloading the game. But as you have bought the disc you really should try to get some tech help, you can ask for help under "my petitions" in the column to the left. Just to let you know the "socket closed" issue more than likely has nothing to do with your client / PC / etc. There is over a 1000 reply thread in the issues forum regarding said problem and sadly the issue has not been resolved.
btw, yeah cross posting is bad, you will get trolled by such ppl as above that spend more time on the forums than in the game.

What does cleaning out the cache or resetting it accomplish? Does that bog down the game?

don't bother trying to install from the disk , as it will just have to download the patch again, i.e. just go and download the latest version off the site, when you install it install it to either a) another drive [d:\eve\TQ] or b) another directory this will mean that any crap you have not flushed via clearing the cache will be gone.
in future - there is no need to uninstall and re-install eve - as this will not do any good, the client does not get corrupted. - the cache may but an uninstall will not affect it.

Thanks. From reading the forums yesterday and today it looks like a lot of people have been having the same problems I've been having. I also have more problems when I run duel accounts at once. My pc is more than capable of handling EVE and my internet connection is usually 3 bars. It's just frustrating since we do pay for the subscription it would be nice for the game to work reliably.

Edited by: Haradgrim on 28/07/2009 21:47:27 I suffer from the same problem, here is the solution:
right click on your eve icon (on your desktop or start menu) and select properties, under the compatibility tab; check the box next to "run in 640 x 480 resolution"
now start eve, you will see a reall messed up window that seems to be the upper left corner of the log-in screen blown up across your desktop
hold down alt and press the Enter key, you should now be in full screen mode, hit alt + Enter again and you should be in proper windowed mode.
hope that helps, God help you if you want to run 2 accounts on 2 monitors (I do, with this problem it borders on masochistic, especially because one monitor is much bigger....) --
