    Hi,
    Recently I got a new computer and the game can't run on it.
    I keep getting this error:
    [​IMG]

    In my previous computer the game worked fine.
    I tried googling my problem and none of the solutions I found worked (most google results were from this forum)

    Please help! :(

    Update 1:

    After reformatting PC 3 times, I still couldn't solve it.
    I've tried everything.

    - All compatibility modes
    - Running as admin
    - Restarting
    - Redownloading
    - Running game several times
    - Reducing color mode
    - Disabling dpi
    - Closing all apps before trying to launch
    - Changing to all resolutions and hertz
    - Updating drivers
    - Disabling antivirus
    - Completely deleting antivirus
    - Installing on a different drive
    - Running on a clean PC with nothing but MapleRoyals installed
    - At some point I managed to also get "CoInitialize has not been called" at first runs and then unspecified again.. which different compatibility mode should fix according to google but it didn't

    Anyone has a suggestion? something that I didn't try?



    Update 2:
    Tried few more stuff that also didn't work:
    - Completely disabling my graphics card, using the built-in graphics card my motherboard has.
    - Reinstalling graphics card drivers
    - Installing all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable (2005, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013)

    The only thing I could achieve is Getting:
    [​IMG]
    more frequently.. (I'm still getting unspecified as well)




    Update 3:
    The game finally works!!
    It's all thanks to Matt's post with the fixed client!

    When I get that error, I just keep on trying to launch the client until it succeeded. Did no changes to properties or whatsoever.
