  • I hope someone here can help me!

    Tried to get back into this game, and I would, but the problem is this:
    I CANT PLAY IT!
    Im using a windows Vista computer. I bought the ultimate collection. I downloaded the special Vista POL viewer and installed and patched it. Then I installed the games.
    After setting up my account and getting my content ID, I registered all my games. When I hit play the FFXI window opens up and just hangs there. It goes into not responding mode an I have to force quit it.

    I get: Problem Event Name: AppHangB1
    Application Name: pol.exe
    Application Version: 1.18.13.0
    Application Timestamp: 4b552e15
    Hang Signature: 3c65
    Hang Type: 2048
    OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.768.3
    Locale ID: 1033
    Additional Hang Signature 1: 7308b6534d46bf3c15a23c9efd99dfe1
    Additional Hang Signature 2: 4e4c
    Additional Hang Signature 3: 4517d84604a391023f2e7b3dd6e4d44b
    Additional Hang Signature 4: 3c65
    Additional Hang Signature 5: 7308b6534d46bf3c15a23c9efd99dfe1
    Additional Hang Signature 6: 4e4c
    Additional Hang Signature 7: 4517d84604a391023f2e7b3dd6e4d44b


    I have tried everything here. Can anyone here please help me? Im losing my mind over this (not to mention I bought two copies of this game in the last two days, and if I cant play it Im out 40 bucks)

    Thank you for any help.

    All I can tell you is that this is not an issue with the game, this is an issue with Vista. I've run into this myself but with other apps and not FFXI. I reinstalled and the issue was gone.

      After re installing a total of 5 times, I don't think thats going to help anymore =(
      Im shocked this happens, and there is no fix or info on it. Im pretty much SOL on this game I guess.

                    Have you by any chance tried without the windowing? (go straight to full screen)

                      Yep when I do that it just pulls up a black screen and hangs there.

                          You don't need to download the vista pol if you have the Ultimate collection.
                          I use a Mac because I'm just better than you are.
