dear capsuleers

last week i had trouble playing eve i had tons of errors and i was not the only one for about a week i had eve uninstalled and deleted all related files.

today i try'd reinstalling hte game and the online version gave me a bugg, the offline version worked for me and it installed 'good'
after i restardet my computer and tryd to launch the game my computer thinked a little and then did nothing.

i hit cntrl+alt+del to see in procces if my launcher.exe was working and it did but after that it gone away and nothing happened
i'm using a windows 7 64 bit

thanks in advance

Does the launcher appear? Is your DirectX up to date? Did you try running repair.exe?

Looking for more thoughts? Follow me on Twitter.

Reboot, then try repairing again. Any non-ansi characters (i.e. anything besides a-z or spaces like é or ä, ß, etc.) in Eve's folder path?

i ran the .exe and it shown me to a logg where i found this:

Traceback (most recent call last): ConfigParser.MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers.

where could i find the eve folder path?

I reinstalled eve 3 times just now and the game wont launch.The repair obtion doesnt work. I have the game instaled in a EVE directory.My drivers are up to date. Some times it sayd that CCP Eve Bootstrapper has stopped working

Files that help describe the problem:

C:\Users\pick\AppData\Local\Temp\WER6D23.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml
C:\Users\pick\AppData\Local\Temp\WER8749.tmp.appcompat.txt
C:\Users\pick\AppData\Local\Temp\WER8863.tmp.mdmp

My subscription will end in 3 days.dont think i will renew it seeing that i cant play eve.
