Just putting this here, hoping a person who deals with these actually sees it. No idea where this should actually go...

Using Windows XP 32 Bit. Managed to install the latest version of the client. The launcher does not work. The repair tool does not work. However, running the "ExeFile.exe" from "EVE/bin" starts the client without any problems.

When trying to start the launcher via any shortcut or directly, I get this message: http://pastebin.com/Na0D8KnP

When trying to start the repair tool, I get an error message and the location of the log file, which says: http://pastebin.com/53dCHFiw

Yes, I restarted my computer. Yes, I cleared my cache. Yes, I downloaded the latest version of the repair tool. Yes, I restarted my computer again.

So yeah... I can play the game by going under the "EVE/bin" directory and just starting the "ExeFile.exe"... but in my understanding I have no means of updating the game. And it would be rather tedious to uninstall/install after every little patch.

Please fix the launcher. At the moment the game is a beautiful gem, which is covered in a layer of crap that is the launcher.

Hopefully those full error messages help... I have seen portions of them here and there in this subforum, but none of them have been full.

That's that. You're welcome and thank you. I continue trying to be patient.
