I was over at a friends house last night, and He downloaded GSB and
basically had no problems at all. So, I get home and from the VROC site, I
see there is a new version (or just a patch?) already posted. I do not
believe he got the new version, due to the fact that he got it from the Pits
site. On to my problem! I read that I needed WinSock 2.2 and downloaded
the ver. checker to find out I only had 1.1. Downloaded WinSock 2.2 and
installed it. I did not restart the computer because GSB was still
downloading. When GSB finished, I installed it then restarted my computer.
When my system was back up, I connected to the Net and then started GSB.
First problem I got was a, "File Not Found" error. What file? The other
problem, may or may not be a problem. I closed GSB, to see if it just needed
to be restarted, and another ver. of GSB running / or the first did not
close, it just minimized. I open it up, and that one won't shut down. I
have to do a Ctrl-Alt-Del to actual end the task. Any ideas? I read
earlier, that the patch fixed the file not found problem. Is this the old
version, and there was only a patch? What about the other problem, is it
just a connection issue? I never did get it to connect to VROC. Oh, my
friend, seemed to not have any problems. Any suggestions would be greatly
appriciated.
Thanks,
Thad
It is possible that you had 2 copies of GSB running (I've noticed that
it sometimes minimizes itself into the systray -- I do have that option
turned on).
Open the Help Menu and click on About. You should get the splash
screen. The version in the lower right should read "1.0.0.95". If this
is the case, you have the patched version, if no go to
http://gpl.gamestats.com/gsb/news.html and update it.
The missing file is an address.ini file in your GPL folder.
Did you re-run the version check on your Winsocks after upgrading it to
make sure the upgrade took place?
