    reinstalling FFXI

    ive just had to reinstal ffxi and POL on a new pc, i have some old cd's like the ffxi vanadiel collection which contains ffxi+RotZ+CoP but wont work on windows 7 so i had to download POL through
    http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/download/media/vista01.html?pageID=media

    however this is only POL and not ffxi, ive logged into my POL and cant play ffxi because it isnt installed and i cant install ffxi from the CD because it says POL isnt installed (when it is because i downloaded and installed it from the link above).

    can anyone shed some light on this?

    still wondering though why they dont have the ffxi game + expansions to download for SE members anyway since weve already payed for the game and also the monthly payments we should be able to download more than just POL only.

    It might be because you got the wrong regional version?

    you noted you got it from the US page via this link:

    http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/dow...l?pageID=media

    Note the ff11us vs. ff11eu in the URL. IDK if it's different installers or not, but they are on region specific URL's, so it's possible.

    Scroll down. You'll need to run setup programs lurking within individual folders.
