    Exit COX
    Using Windows Explorer or hard disk browse, go to where your COX program is installed (like C:\Program Files\City of Heroes)
    In the City of Heroes folder, find two files: one ends in PRV and one ends in CHECKSUM
    Delete them
    At Start, click Run. IN the box, type CMD
    The Command Prompt black screen appears. In the command window, type :
    IPCONFIG /FLUSHDNS <--- notice the space before /

    After it runs, type EXIT in the command window and the black screen goes away.
    Restart COX
    It will checksum and then fix the broken files
    It will verify
    And then you can log in
    For Mac Users go to terminal and type in dscacheutil -flushcache, this will flush the cache.
    to force check sum, go to COH and rt click then select show package contents. follow the rest of the information.

    Funny AFK

    POST-ACTION

    I've had that too, but with my son, he used to "miss" his diaper completely! yet have it still covering his whole butt when I go to change him! Of course now I get to go AFK because I have to see the newest drawing of Ben 10! I prefer that to the former!

    Snow Leopard

    POST-ACTION

    tried it out and it runs just fine (really didn't think there would be an issue) so no fears over upgrading and having it stop working. runs as a 32 bit application in the 64 bit environment.

    Snow Leopard

    POST-ACTION

    Question - has anyone tried COH in Snow Leopard yet? (I know it is still in developer mode) but just wondering? (I'm downloading it currently but I haven't had a chance to play it yet (stupid family obligations!))

    COH Golden Age

    POST-ACTION

    Okay I posted this in the General discussion but I thought I would add it here as well

    I know that the COH Golden Age was a joke (and a good one at that!)
    However I was thinking that would make a great box set. new costumes and the ability to fight in Paragon City during the 40's and 50's. This would be great I've long asked for more Retro costumes and it would be fun to have the ability to fight the Axis Powers and protect Paragon from their minions. I know this would be a lot of work, and the boxed set should integrate with COX in some way, similar to how COV and COH complement each other but I would really, really like to see something developed along the lines. anyone else think this is a great idea?

    I am simply amazed. Has someone told Brent Sienna at PVP Magazine yet?

    if you don't want to go through all of the trouble of installing boot camp and windows you can download and install Crossover Games from Codeweavers and while not with out it's problems it does work very well, this is a great option as it works in tiger 10.4 and leopard 10.5, if the only reason you are flipping to windows is for COX than this will save you some space on your hard drive.
