hello
well i got FFXI ultimate collection from steam and it worked fine for a week or so untill one day while i
was walking around WG a message pops on my screen saying "playonline viewer has stopped working"
and shuts down. i tried logging in again and after about 10 sec it happenes again. i then went and uninstalled
it from my comp and reinstalled it. then i went through all the playonline stuff then when i hit play it loads up
then ffxi pops up but it is just a black screen for about 5 secs then that message "playonline viewer has
stopped working" pops up again and shuts down.

i have no idea how to fix this or even where to start.

im running on vista 32bit and my grafics card is the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT

Did you turn that admin thing off? That will cause the game to crash with Vista.

Try right click and "Run as Administrator".

Thats what I have to do to play in Vista.
