Unable to load into random zones.

I've been experiencing an issue on and off since the MA was implemented. Every once in a while, I will be unable to load into a random zone. So far it's happened with Pocket D, an SG base, several MA missions, several Paper/Radio missions, with several characters. Here's what happens:

I try to zone, either by logging in or just changing zones. The game will appear to freeze for anywhere up to 1 minute. ( If I alt-tab out and bring up the task manager, it will show CoH as "Not Responding" ) After which, I am booted out to the login screen with a "no mapServer connection. try again." message box.

At this point, I can't enter that zone until the server is reset. When that happens, everything works fine.

Here's my CohHelper Info

If anyone has any insight into why this could be happening, I'd greatly appreciate a post about it. Currently, I can't load into Cap, KR, a rikti mission from Borea, and a radio mission in PI. Needless to say, not being to play these characters/in these zones is a bit frustrating. Thanks!

That's an awful lot of ram in use, and the paging file is pretty close to the allocated limit too. Is that what you're normally running while you're playing? It may be that your system is running out of memory in those zones. There are probably some things you can try disabling, like the Dragon Age updater, while you're playing. There are probably other things, but someone more experienced with Hijack logs would need to pick those out for you.

Notice that HiJack This shows that CoH is currently running, which explains a bit about his memory usage CoHHelper is showing us.

While It may not be entirely related to your issue Id flip the C and E hard drives around and make E the new C harddrive (main disk) as that 40 GB is a much smaller, slower and likely old disk. Id also try updating to service pack 3.

These issues probably have nothing to do with your current problem but will likely help. I am however noticing it says you have 14 % free on you C drive and 1% free on your E drive. Which can't be correct based off the disk space it says you're using. That makes me think you need to run scandisk to correct errors on the hard drives. Which likely occurred from all of your crashing.

Just a few things you may want to try if you can't solve your issue based off what info others give you here. As a last resort you could try a reformat and reinstall windows / coh. Something thats good to do anyway every 3 - 6 months.

Thanks for all the advice, I did run ChkDsk and defragged, after cleaning up a bunch of garbage on my drives.

Today, after the patch, everything seemed to be working fine. Until I zoned into the RWZ. Once again, the game appeared to freeze for a few moments, then disconnected.

"no mapServer connection. try again."

After logging back in, that character shows as being in the RWZ, but I can't actually load into the RWZ. Any other character that is already in the RWZ has the same problem. Any other character that I try to get into the RWZ will also have the same issue.

OK in that case its clearly a plot see the Hijack This for details

try updating your directx 9.0 to directx 10. also update your video drivers. you also might want to take any music or videos you have stored and burn them to a disc and get them off of your comp. you can also try resetting your modem and router.

i'm not quite sure if xp supports dx10 either. but it wouldn't hurt to find out.

To my knowledge it does not.

Alright, after more housekeeping ( deleting more stuff, another ChkDsk and defrag. Uninstalling and reinstalling CoX, updating video drivers ) here is new CohHelper info:

Still have the issue, had to petition a GM last night to move a character out of Steel Canyon. Until the server resets, I won't be able to load into Steel Canyon or the RWZ.

Now, running a clean healthy system is important, I get that. But, if the problem goes away when their server resets, doesn't that suggest the issue is more on their end, rather than mine? Or am I completely off base here?

had/have a similar problem tech suport belivedit was my ram. which im leaning tword as asus if very picky about which ram it will use corectly.

if your motherboard lists which ram they can use ( as in chack their offical site) might be worht it to check.

i had this problem at random since i returned to cohjust after last issue i belive.some days it does not happen other days cant zone any where with out same thign you posted .

First, I hope everyone had a great holiday season, I know I did.

I'm picking up this thread because the problem hasn't gone away. Currently I am unable to load into the RWZ, PI, a paper mission in Grandville, and prior to losing access to PI, I had a radio mission and a contact mission that wouldn't load there.

Now, all of this is happening on the Virtue server. I can go to Justice or Freedom, and load these zones with no issues.

Does this mean that the issue lies with that server and my account info that is saved there? I don't know. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the game, and I am fairly certain that defragging/freeing HD space or making sure that my power cable is 3 inches to the right instead of 4 inches to the left is not the problem.

In addition to this problem, I haven't received my 60 month vet reward yet, which should have been awarded about mid December of last year.

Who do I need to get in contact with to have someone take a look at my character/account info, just to make sure there isn't some kind of mismatch or data corruption?

Not knowing if I'll successfully load into Random Zone A or B or C is more than a little frustrating. This is compounded by the feeling that since this appears to be an isolated issue, ( I don't know of anyone else that is experiencing this particular problem ) it doesn't rate high enough on anyone's todo list for it to be addressed in a timely fashion.

Please Devs, I know you guys have your hands full, but if anyone could possibly squeeze in a bit of time to give this issue a good once over, and hopefully pinpoint the problem, I will be very grateful.

File a support ticket on the PlayNC support website for the veterans rewards.

I'd recommend filing a /petition from the character and selecting Stuck as the type of petition, list the zones and missions (by name) that you can't get into.

You can update the /petition from the PlayNC support website to include any more information you feel is relevant to the issue.

This is strictly a customer service issue, not something that the Devs have any control over. Customer service and most of the GM's are in Austin, some may be in Washington, and the Devs are in California.
