Unable to log into kraken

Hey guys, i'm at my place now and this computer is old, so this very well be the problems but i'd like to run it by you aswell. The problem is that i am unable to log into my character, on the log in bar, when i type a letter it will continue typing a letter, also at the loading page everything is white, i will try to re down-load but if you have had this in the past and had an easy fix, i'd greatly appreciate it. sounds like to me it's missing a file for the graphics or maybe the graphics cards are too old. Thanks.

Do you mean that, if you press the "A" key, it will type "aaaaaaaa..." in the name bar? In that case, it seems like your PC is not handling interrupts right, which makes it very improbable that the game will run at all...

 

I can confirm that all is fine with the Kraken character, so it seems the problem really is with that machine.

You might want to post some more specifications about your computer, like the Operating System you are using and such.

 

I remember, that that happened to me too once ago (typing 'a' results into 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa') and if i am not totally mistaken, it was a problem with the installed SDL libraries.

 

Updating them might help, just a guess.

cept Windows doesn't have 'installed SDL libraries' :P , the SDL .dll's come with the EL client.
