Is it possible to play SK without Downloading it first? I mean, if you have Java(v3u30, in this case), but SK simply didn't Download automatically like it's supposed to...

If not, then I'm headed for my third download of SK.

Trick question, by the way. I got into the actual game and ran around in the Arcade, before I was shut out for trying to go Clockworking. EDIT: for Lufte - Just for clarity, I hadn't re-Downloaded the game yet at this point. Either way, something really odd happened. My conclusion is a ghost of SK on my Comp.

Update: I was just going to Download SK while I waited for a Response or two here(I realized it might be a while...)

I didn't get into the actual game without the Download again, but the Download skipped again like before, and I was also auto-logged into the character selection screen. ???

The game always has to download. A simple option to try out is to delete the game's folder before trying to download again. If you keep having problems installing, post the content of launcher.log here to see if it has something useful.

I guess I mostly was, if you mean opening SK from the SK site, in Firefox(mostly) or IE(perhaps once or twice).

Now that you ask, must have been in browser mostly, but recently I have been using the Desktop Shortcut...

Anyway, I'm bluescreening from SK so much because the latest driver I can find for my Display Adapter is early '08.

That shouldnt matter. I can

That shouldnt matter. I can play SK on my 10 year old computer and it's driver is way older.

Yeah, well...

My display adapter is an intergrated chipset and my system just doesn't want to share for what SK needs. The Error Reports for all my bluescreens are all traced to the driver for my chipset. I rolled back to the original and forward again, but I'm still bluescreening. I could get into the game and play long enough to get down to the 5-6th Levels before, but now I'm just bluescreening before I can even get into the game/Haven. Done it 3-4 times already. I just plain need a better video card...
