I have thought about this for sometime and I finally decided to throw it out to the public. This thread will contain error fixes for issues you have pertaining to silkroad private servers. I think this will be better than having to sift through the hundreds of pages on the stickied threads to find the answer to your quests. Also don't forget to try to provide screen shots! We'll see how it goes, and please don't spam or flame, just post errors and fixes to errors.
Errors:
If you seem to have issues with logging into your account and getting onto your character. Not server traffic but if when you hit the log in button and it doesn't work or if the proportion is off and your login information screen seems to be in the wrong place. If you have problems like this what you should try first is DELETE YOUR SETTINGS FILE/FOLDER! It could be corrupted!
If when start silkroad and it seems to not load or the start button doesn't appear and the server is on (make sure it is)! Right click on your silkroad icon (shortcut) then go under properties and go into the Compatibility part of it. Click run as compatibility mode for service pack 2 or 3 (Whichever you have). After you do that and hit okay/apply right click on the icon again and then hit Run as administrator!
Be sure to post your errors and fixes if you have them or an error or a fix and we will see if others can fix it for you. I will update the thread once it gets more errors and fixes. Thanks.
