<div class="IPBDescription">Oh Nos!!!</div> I know this goes in Tech Support, but it's most likely if this topic is there it will get ignored. After I get my answer, please move this topic there, until then leave it here.


I was playing on the same comp, on the same HL installation for as long as NS has been out, then out of the blue I get a can't open client.dll , I was thinking, HAH!!!, no biggie, I'l just install NS to my other HL installtion, turns out, I can't install it there, Why? I don't have 1.1.1.0 , But I DO!!!, I get the file from fileplanet, it sais I already have it installed, NS says I don't. WTH am I supposed to do. I will shrival and die without my NS!!!

You guys are a big help

Fixed by reinstalling NS to it's original dictionary.

Well, your problem isn't detailed enough. Try to better describe your problem please. You have 2 HL installations on different paths on the same Hard Drive right?
And you've installed NS in destination C:/SIERRA/Half-Life/ which is now screwed so now you have installed NS on C:/Program Files/SIERRA/Half-Life for example?
Well, from past experiences, installing HL anywhere but the default C:/SIERRA/Half-Life/ installation path causes problems with mod installations and patch installations.
Probably the reason no one has replied to this thread is because it's so O.O.T?

That is all I can help you with I'm afraid <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Your client.dll is probably corrupt(for some reason or another..it happens.)

So... Reinstall. Not just NS but HL and all the patches, the works.

Also. Your HD might be broken. Broken as in some dust particles destroying your HD bit by bit.
Try doing a scandisc or something to make sure it is not killing itself.
if it is.. well, there is no cure you have to get a new one. Copy all important data and reinstall everything to the new HD
