I have some notes on this issue in this thread

http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=26531.msg298579#msg298579

It contains a possible work around

-- look for the section after the part where I say "Hey Dev Guys what's up with this?"

Basically, Try disabling the updater from pulling the data files temporarly so you can get the other files listed after "data/servers.xml~"

The mac version is not going to help you, but notes within that post can.

As I said

Basically, Try disabling the updater from pulling the data files temporarily so you can get the other files listed after "data/servers.xml~"

as the file "data/servers.xml~" is failing to update due to the fact that file is not on any of the mirrors and everything scheduled to update after that file is then skipped

Xenxe, you made some 6 posts in various threads about the same issue - I know it's frustrating to have things breaking on you, but take a breath and calm down :) There's no need to bring this up so many times.

If you can't log into the game without updating because of a missing .dll, chances are your installation went wonky. Try reinstalling - if that doesn't help, please mention which .dll the message brings up.

Let's try several things, just in case:

1) Open up your list of processes (CTRL+ALT+DEL --> Processes tab) and try to search for psclient.exe. If you find it, select it and click on "End Process," and try running PS again.

2) Does this happen with only one of your characters, or multiple? If you only have one, can you try creating another and attempt logging in?

3) What are your system specs like? If you right-click on your "My Computer" icon and click on Properties, you'll see your processor type and speed and RAM amount. To see your graphics card and driver version, type dxdiag into the Windows Run command and take a look at the Display tab.

4) Have you tried uninstalling completely (making sure no folders remain) and reinstalling one more time?
