As I said, we've seen problems pop up from time to time with the Wacom tablets. At least you've been able to determine that it isn't the tablet causing these issues.

I've never realized that MSE isn't showing in a HJT log. I haven't run HJT on my own computer in so long (haven't had a reason to) that I never noticed it wasn't showing up. I run MSE on most of my computers, including work computers.

I'm thinking it may be something in one of the in-game settings, but since you can't get the loading screen to be able to log into the game and check or change settings ... well, you see the problem there.

I'm at a loss as to what to suggest from here.

Sorry I couldn't help you find a solution.

That message about not finding an OpenGL driver usually only happens when it installs the default Windows driver.

It sounds like it didn't take the nVidia driver installation for some reason.

In most cases it wouldn't take getting a whole new system, just replacing the video card.

In order to make any recommendations though about what card your system can handle we'd need more information.

A CoH Helper report would be the first step. You can find instructions for downloading and running CoH Helper and posting the output file to the forums in Hyperstrike's [Guide] Asking for technical help on the forums that is stickied in this section.

After thinking about things for a bit, I logged in to my Premium account.

That account has Tier 3 filled which lists +3 Salvage inventory, +3 Vault inventory and +1 Recipe inventory as part of the bonuses.

Tier 2 lists +2 Salvage inventory and +1 Recipe inventory as part of the bonuses.

The account currently has 20 Salvage slots, 20 Vault slots, and 8 Recipe slots.

Doing the math here, that means that Tier 1 would have given that account 15 Salvage slots, 16 Vault slots and 7 Recipe slots.

If you check your Paragon Rewards level in-game and see what the last Tier that is filled is, then you can check how many of what slots that Tier and each previous Tier gives and add those to the numbers I listed above. That "should" match what your characters have unless you've purchased extra storage slots of some type.

The reason I didn't use my main account to do the math is because it was too many Tier bonuses to have to add up plus I've purchased extra Salvage and Recipe storage and "possibly" AH storage along with additional Enhancement trays. Since I can't remember how many of what I purchased, and I'm too lazy to track it using the /mypurchases command, I'll have to just use my Premium account for the math.

Since I know Agge has a Premium account as well, she should be able to check my math on those numbers to get the information she needs to edit the Wiki pages.

If you look at the Paragon Rewards Program page on ParagonWiki it lists "Limited Inventory (?)" as part of the Tier 1 bonus. Apparently no one has tested to see what that inventory value is.

There may not be any actual inventory at Tier 1 since the in-game Paragon Rewards meter doesn't list any inventory for the Tier 1 entry.

Tier 2 through Tier 8 each include various inventory increases so it's possible that a player could work from their current inventory backward to find what it is at Tier 1.

Download but don't install the drivers.

Download and install Driver Sweeper but don't run it yet.

Uninstall the existing video drivers and related nVidia video software.

Reboot into Windows Safe Mode.

Run Driver Sweeper in Safe Mode and have it remove all of the leftover files from the nVidia video drivers.

Reboot when prompted by Driver Sweeper and go into normal Windows mode.

Install the drivers you downloaded in the first step.

Justice for All - contact any mod in the channel to get unsilenced.

There's another channel but I can't remember the name since I'm not a member.

I'm sure someone will be along Soon™ to provide the other channels name.

EDIT: Looked at the sticky threads. Seems the other channel's name is Justice United. I think the same rules apply as far as contacting a mod to be unsilenced.

Two things concern me a bit. The first is whatever is blocking CoH Helper from accessing the registry. That could be causing other issues. The second thing is that I see no anti-virus software running on the system. Viruses and malware can cause legitimate programs to not be able to access the registry and can cause other problems.

Without being able to see the game settings portion of CoH Helper I don't know if any of your game settings might be causing issues.

As for the HiJackThis report, only one thing really stands out.

Wacom tablet software has been known to cause this problem in the past. Not everyone runs into it, but given the symptoms you reported and seeing the Wacom services running makes me think it might be your problem.

There are a few ways to try this, and I'll go from least drastic to most. After trying one fix, if it resolves the issue you'll know you're OK. If not, try the next one and repeat until you find the solution that works for you.


1. Unplug the tablet and/or any pens for the tablet and launch the game.

2. Disable the tablet services. Click the Start orb, type services.msc in the Search box and hit enter. Find the entry for TabletServicePen in the list. Double-click it and set it to Disabled. Click OK. Do the same thing for Wacom Consumer Touch Service in the list. This will keep the services from starting and may allow the game to launch and run fine.

3. Uninstall the Wacom software. This is what some have had to do in order to get the game to launch correctly. I don't know if updated drivers or software from Wacom would allow it to be re-installed and not interfere with the game.

The only other entry I see that I'm not sure of is the LOLRecorder. I've not seen it in any HJT reports so don't know if it would cause problems or not. I know the basics of what the program is, just not whether it might interact with the game or launcher in any way.

Your CoH Helper report is incomplete. It shows none of the game settings. You may have a program that is not allowing it to access the registry.

Make sure that you are downloading CoH Helper to the desktop, right-clicking on the file and selecting Run as administrator. If it still doesn't get the game settings that means that something on your computer is blocking it's access to the registry.

Also, please include a HiJackThis report as well so that we can see what else is running on the computer that could be causing this issue.

Please don't put the output of either program inside a quote box or a code box, it makes it more difficult to read.

Run the game in Windowed mode but don't run it Full Screen. Leave yourself a buffer zone on the right side of the game so that you don't get into that area area of the screen that throws your cursor onto the other monitor.

Those other games are most likely using DirectX for the graphics instead of OpenGL. The OpenGL portion of the drivers may not be correctly interpreting how to work with multiple monitors and getting that odd area at the edge of the screen.

It does not support it.

If you are running Windows you can use NeoSplasher.

A few samples are in this post:

Controller's or MM's would require purchasing the AT license in the Paragon Market or having enough Paragon Rewards tokens to fill Tier 5.

Premium players do have access to IO's if they purchase a monthly Inventions license (regularly priced at 150 PP ($2.00) for a 30 day license but currently on sale for 80 PP ($1.00) for a 30 day license) or fill Reward Tier 7.

Auction house access has a similar 30 day license with the same pricing and the same sale price this week and has a Lifetime AH access when you fill Tier 4 in the Paragon Rewards.

First things first. Please run Windows Updates and get all of the security updates, especially Service Pack 2. There were quite a few stability fixes in SP1 and even more in SP2.

I would recommend turning Ambient Occlusion completely OFF. Also make sure that Advanced Occlusion Settings is set to OFF. This is a huge resource hog.

I'd also make sure that the Launcher is set to close once the game launches. I see that you have it running at Startup, but several recommened turning that feature off as well and run the Launcher only when you need to start the game.

The Devs have already told us they'd like to have a method to gift points or items but that security concerns are what has been holding it back.

It's not just some twisted piece of Forbin's imagination that drives him to post the responses to this issue when it comes up, it's based on comments made by the Devs that are the basis for those posts.

Zworkinghistailoff is Busy, Busy, Busy right now, so you might want to send a polite PM to Hit Streak or Freitag, explain the situation and what Z told you and then let them know that you haven't heard from him since and ask if they can assist while he's so busy.

They've all been rather busy of late, but things are getting busier still for the OCR team.
