Error 10057

Post by toast » Wed Nov 03, 2010 9:58 pm

Haven't been on the game in probably 2 years now...I have a new computer that runs win 7, and I can't seem to get the game to play...getting error code 10057. I remember getting it in the past but I dont remember what it means...any help?



EDIT: I remembered it would patch for ten years so i redownloaded SGE...now I get error 5: access denied when i try to install. And don't give me any crap about not being administrator, its my computer.

Also, this is the 64 bit version of 7 if that matters.

I'm sure you have...but I have to ask...Have you PM-ed an admin?

Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Since you have win7, try right clicking on the "newluancher.exe, or the installer.exe" and select "run as administrator". I have win7 and that worked for me. I hope it works for you.

Even if your an admin, you have to "run as administrator. It's dumb and makes no sense lol, hope that works for ya.
