[quote="THE_HOG";p="158410"]Can't seem to get FL working too well.  I've gotten on a few times, but had FL crash back to the server screen after only 30 seconds.  

I uninstalled everything, and reinstalled everything.  Turned off my UAC, Anti-virus, and firewall.  Also ran programs as "Administrator".  But now I can't even get the global servers to populate.

I uninstalled everything another time.  Read this thread on exactly what everyone else has been doing,  Reinstalled everything.  "Ran as administrator" and "compatibility w/ SP2".  Still don't have the servers populating.

Help please!  I'm running the 64bit Windows Vista Ultimate, if that means anything different.[/quote]

the global server is down, try direct connect.

sorry, this thread is for people who want to run vista and freelancer. I could probably make FL work with half a dozen operating systems.

nice avatar tho :)

Im running home premium, the best way to circumvent 805 or so of the connection issues is to run Freelancer as admin this is a quick easy fix and also provides a solution to running FLMM
