is the game supposed to have an installer program to install

[Cyriack]

is the game supposed to have an installer program pop up during login and load for awhile then ask for final fantasy xi.msi? i cant log into final fantasy and it cant find that file because its on another drive. and it seems weird to ask for an config program. Help me soon! thank u.

No, it's not supposed to do that. I would suggest running a file check from POL.

I have had errors logging in too. First I get a box "Please wait while Windows configures FFXI". I I hit cancel, I'm disconnected, if I leave it to run it then looks for a CD-ROM. I have not had this happen in the past, does anyone have any ideas on it, please? File check threw up nothing. Thank you.

How can anyone help with that [lack of info]?

You need to follow SE's template...

Check to see if your antivirus program removed the ffxi.dll file. It happened to me today and everything worked fine after I restored it.

Thank you so much. That was the problem.

And I'm very sorry I didn't use a template, but I don't know what it is or where I would find it. When I looked up how to reply to posts on the SE FAQ page all it gave me was this:
- Responding to an existing thread

If you click "Go Advanced" located on the bottom right in the "Quick Reply" box, a page where you can enter a title and additional options will be displayed. You can reply to a thread through the page.

Thank you very much for your help again, Gannon.

Hi,

I wasn't having a go or anything, it's just that it gives the tech teams very little to go on. They should really have a part of that template that mentions what kind of anti-virus people are using to, as they can mess up a lot of stuff!

The other thing is that posts without any tech info will generally be overlooked or removed by SE in my experience.
