Mirirar Solstice Systems Development Concourse	Posted - 2007.12.06 04:59:00 - [151] So - CCP -- most companies would have escorted their QA monkeys off the premises for something like this. What's your excuse?
d1v1n1ty	Posted - 2007.12.06 04:59:00 - [152] Originally by: Moni Toimikone My boot.ini seems to be where its supposed to be. Downloaded the patch from ccp server several hours before downtime ended and got the model pack with the background download system. Weird problem, hope it gets fixed soon What OS? Have you rebooted yet?
Cadiz Caldari No Quarter. Vae Victis.	Posted - 2007.12.06 04:59:00 - [153] Originally by: Darkspit Wow...what a first impression for a 6-day old, new customer! In all my years of gaming (10 years), never have I had a game render my OS, useless. Nice going for a first! I seem to remember an Anarchy Online beta patch nuking people's...Win2k? installations, and also uninstalling Myth 2 could gut your OS while it was at it. So yeah, this isn't exactly a first, but it's pretty goddamned terrible for CCP's SUPER EPIC HUGEST BEST PATCH EVER. ------ Director, No Quarter "There is no problem that cannot be solved by the judicious application of violence."

Also ppl. wouldnt it be possible to recover that file with a undelete program?
Othnark Minmatar Destructive Influence Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:00:00 - [155] CCP congratulations on failing... again...
Fade Dren	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:01:00 - [156] Stop your crying for gods sake ... this is starting to resemble the WoW forums. Things happen grow up and shut up until they get it fixed.
cflux Caldari FinFleet Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:02:00 - [157] Originally by: Sentinel Eeex LOL. LMAO. You're a ***** ****. As it goes, those who can't create anything are always first to criticize those who create but sometimes make mistakes. You. Get out. Name single other instance where MMO software update has rendered your whole operating system unusable? This isn't about oh-my-god creation, this is about simply smoketesting your software before releasing it. Single test run would have shown this bug. And to your idiotic "can't give critique if you don't do yourself" - how many movie critics are also top class film directors? You don't have to best in your field to give critique, you are the damn customer. This isn't a mistake. This is lack of caring and incompetence. -- Lord Chaos - Only add Fluxcage.
Kyoko Sakoda Caldari Omerta Syndicate	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:02:00 - [158] I'm a CCP fanboy but this is some seriously inept quality assurance. Confirm that the above solutions have worked, however.
Digicomm The Digital Communists	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:02:00 - [159] Originally by: d1v1n1ty Originally by: Kreuz Ass no boot.ini here too... internal hijacker ? dood...read above...lol! This just in! CCP Trinity patch deletes your boot.ini file. Keiron says hold the ^%$#ing phone...more to come at 11.

nonamenoname	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:02:00 - [161] I'm not sure what's going on... I've installed the classic to premium and the new client has bugged out twice on me and shut down down my computer twice. I'm still here I guess. Will I be affected if I manually reboot? Those other two time my computer rebooted due to the client freezing and suddenly restarting my PC.
mill veters	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:02:00 - [162] well they can't blame this one on the hamsters.

Things happen grow up and shut up until they get it fixed. And how in the world are they going to fix the computers of people that have absolutely no clue how to recover from this? How about you practice what you preach!
Caia Gallente Scrutari The Cyrene Initiative	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:04:00 - [165] Originally by: Darkspit Wow...what a first impression for a 6-day old, new customer! In all my years of gaming (10 years), never have I had a game render my OS, useless. Nice going for a first! Actually FFXI did this for a time after one of its patches. It pretty muched gutted all the Windows files and not just one. So, this isn't a first for online gaming. Though, it is pretty bad... Adapt more, whine less.

Matsui Hideki	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:08:00 - [168] I found an SP1 disk lying around, and since my computer is running SP2 (Can't find an SP2 CD ), I was wondering, if I were to do the operation found in this, would it work?

nonamenoname	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:08:00 - [170] By the way, where is this boot.ini file supposed to be located at? I wanna make sure. :(
Zandaar	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:08:00 - [171] If this is true, I'm absolutely screwed. I have months of work on my computer.
shuckstar Gallente Hauling hogs Libertas Fidelitas	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:08:00 - [172] I downloaded premium patch about 5pm server time, been on and of eve since then.. decided to read forums before i go to sleep. Anyways after reading this thread i reboot my computer praying im ok,(using xp btw) upon restarting it comes up invalid boot.ini, rebooting from windows c:\ Now i can get bck on and play eve but worried about the invalid boot.ini file. The only thing i know about pc is to turn them on read forums and play eve What should i do rebuild boot.ini file like others have suggested in this thread or leave it as it is and hope it always does that rebooting from windows thing it does
Airdorn Gallente Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:08:00 - [173] Would someone please escort the CCP QC manager out of the building? Thanks.
prathe Minmatar Omega Enterprises Mostly Harmless	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:09:00 - [174] Originally by: Nevvyn As a long term idea, do you think it might be an idea to change this to eveboot.ini instead of it matching a critical system file name? Nev. QFT signature removed - please email us to find out why (include a link to the image URL) - Jacques([email protected]) why dont you just tell me ?

mill veters	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:10:00 - [177] anyone asking. vista=safe xp=screwed.
5n4keyes Sacred Templars DeStInY.

d1v1n1ty	Posted - 2007.12.06 05:10:00 - [179] Originally by: Zandaar If this is true, I'm absolutely screwed. I have months of work on my computer. It's recoverable...don't worry.

I had to reinstall the OS. :( Glad I caught this one before it bit me.
