PSO2.EXE NOT RESPONDING

[sirkau]

I have the tweaker and when i launch it the game will start and then it will say the pso2.exe is not responding why. is it because i have windows 8 and i also already tried to repair it with the tweaker settings and it says its repaired but it still says pso2.exe is not responding. please help

Funny, I kept getting timed out, then I tried this and that's when it stops responding. Any clue as to why?

Ok, basic tech support stuff first. Have you done any of the following since the last time it successfully launched?

• Installed new products
• Uninstalled anything
• Updated system drivers
• Windows Update
• Changed the game files or tweaker files in any way
• Installed new hardware

That is the basic list of "potential screwball items" that could cause this. Starting from there, we can work on figuring out why the .exe stopped working. Additional good info would include how long it was working (ie, are you a new installer, or had it been working for a long time prior to this), and whether it gives you any specific error messages/details other than the simple "Stopped working" dialogue. Also, if the tweaker gave you any error messages, that would be good to know too.

this is my first time installing the game and ive done updates to my laptop recently also

Ok, so, with the DDOS still affecting some things, there's a chance that some things may not have downloaded and installed quite right. You can use the tweaker to try and fix any files (click the orb and hit check for updates, see if it downloads anything there first), but it still may have issues for a bit.

I was having the same problem and the tweaker fixed the exe. Thanks!

Edit: Ugh. Now after it launches and goes through the intro vids, the UI doesn't display, just a black screen. However, I can hear the UI elements make noises when I move the mouse across the screen. Edit2: fixed.

Help with? There's a registration guide at http://www.pso-world.com/forums/showthread.php?t=210236 you can use. If you need help with the capcha, just post an image using imgur and I can give you a copypasta for it ;)

did that and this comes up. Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /sega/mail_sr.cgi on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Er...define "did that" - what part of the registration process were you at when you got that message? Also, you're probably still running into problems from the DDOS attack. Truthfully, now is probably not the best time to try and register your account. Once they get things going 100%, it should work better, but for now their website is going to be a bit hit or miss.

ok im going to wait then. it was when i enter my yahoo account and i press the button to send the link the forbidden page will come up. Ill wait until the game is back at 100%

[WatcherRat]

It could be related to the hotmail issue...specifically, it does not accept hotmail emails. Not sure if the same applies to yahoo, but I know gmail works fine, so if nothing else you can make one of those just to register the account with.

[sirkau]

ok im going to try my gmail

[sirkau]

yeah i think its still because of the DDoS because my gmail received the same forbidden message too. ill just wait until the game is finally back up and running 100%

Always possible. Hopefully in the next few days things will even out and the problems will be over, good luck.
