Loading Issue

I just reactivated my account and updated POL and FFXI without any problems. When I try to log in to the game I get to the screen where you select play>then a pop up warning message from SE appears, close that>select play again. At this point the version check appears then the box disappears and loops back to the screen to select play again.

This happens with both regular POL and using windower 3.42

I used this laptop when I played previously. I tried to uninstall POL and re-dl the vista version from SE, but the problem is still there. I even tried to run it in xp sp2 compatible mode and still no luck.

Any suggestion would be great!

Welcome back to the game!

Can't say i've experienced this problem before so can't really help ya, There is server maint in a number of zones in-game due in about 40mins, not sure if that would affect your login.

Thanks!!! Ive been having this problem for over 12 hours now, so I am not sure if it is related to the maint.
