Issue: Blank Screen with Cursor

[Ranebow]

Is it correct that your most recent install is via torrent(s), or was it from official source?
Official source has it just under 7gb; unless someone repacked it (?), torrent shouldn't offer you any bonuses.

What you describe is either missing/corrupt data or in other cases would be driver related. If you have tried several GPU drivers and still have the same problem, it could be Windows 8.
What about compatibility mode for Windows 7, or do you have a copy of another Windows version you can install to test on?

Actually, that's something I can try. Since I have the installer and the client already downloaded, I can copy it to another computer and try to run it on Windows 7.

There's a chance it is the files though, as I don't have a config program to run like others seem to, but unfortunately for me, this client is completely downloaded via the launcher, so it isn't the torrent client's issue.

The reason I do have torrent clients saved is becuase I have limited internet for my computer, but my phone does not, so I torrent download it to my phone, and copy the client onto my computer. Since Square's launcher patches with entire files instead of amending the current files, it costs too much data to keep updating, I did eventually break down and get the square exclusive client, but if they patched again anytime soon, I'd be in trouble, without torrents that is. But I'll try to swap to the other computer now, and if that doesn't fix the issue, then I guess I'll look for another torrented client to try. I don't think the torrented clients were the issue, since I had the same trouble with them as I have with the official source. If for some reason it is the client, and the torrented ones continue to be troubling, I'll just check next month and try to reinstall from the original source again.
