<p><span style="color: #00cc00;">Okay I've installed and I'm going to reboot(to be safe) then try again. </span></p>

<p>Sounds good, keep me updated.</p>

[Zabjade]

<p><span style="color: #00cc00;">No good, still give the same error</span></p>

<p>Have you tried the Stand-alone LaunchPad for Legends of Norrath?  You can get it directly from <a href="http://www.legendsofnorrath.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">www.legendsofnorrath.com</a></p>

<p><span style="color: #00cc00;">Will know in an estimated 50 minutesI stuck it in the sony folder, still it seems to want to do a big download. </span></p>

[Zabjade]

<p><span style="color: #00cc00;">It comes up with the stand-a-lone, thank you. </span></p>

[TSR-JoshuaM]

<p>Posted about the same time there <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>That's great news.  For the in-game client I would double check that the Legends of Norrath option is still checked in your LaunchPad options but otherwise if you do not mind using the stand-alone client please do <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>
