NC Launcher wont open COH

NC Launcher wont open COH. Every time I click "play" it shows the loading bar and then the game crashes and an error report pops up.

"The crash occurred in atioglxx.dll."

Not sure what this means, but I have uninstalled by the launcher and coh twice to no avail.

atioglxx.dll is ATI/AMD's OpenGL driver. It means you need to update your video card drivers. Go to www.amd.com to get the latest drivers.

Just a note Tex, I was receiving the same crash "Quiting to Character Select" last night with the latest drivers.

Something in the last patch isn't playing very nice with ATI 11.9. It isn't as bad as pre 11.9. But something is in there.

I have updated my drivers and it is still not letting me open it.

It's still not working.

There is another thing to try that might fix your problem. Admittedly, it was for nVidia users that would get stuck at the loading bar... But I think it might fix you up. And it shouldn't cause major problems if it doesn't work.

Give this a try:

"I would like to have the graphic shader files rebuilt on your system. To do so, please delete the "CoX" folder located, by default, at "C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\AppData\Local\NCSoft" and try launching City of Heroes again. If you are unable to see this folder, you may have "Show hidden files and folders" disabled."

Nope, still nothing. There was no "CoX" Folder in there hidden or otherwise. I reinstalled COH if that's what your talking about.

Then I would suggest you try contacting tech support at one of the links in my signature.

Did you ever get a resolution on this? I just started having this problem after the Beta Client forced me to update my graphics driver because it wouldn't run. (It actually popped up a window and told me I HAD to update the drivers.)

I have installed several versions of the catalyst driver.. 11.7, 11.8, 11.9 11.4 and even 11.10 beta to no avail. A search for atioplxx.dll on the AMD site returns nothing (I don't know if the xx is a placeholder for a version number or actually part of the name).

I have had to go back to my old laptop and play on that.. it's ticking me off!

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
