Ok.. now that I pm'd logan, I guess I can reply.. Here's what I have thus far.. nothing to do with acdc though..

1. New install of Windows 7 - 64bit
2. Download and install all updates for Win7
3. Download and install the Asheron's Call client from http://ac.turbine.com and click on "Client Download"
3a. While installing, be sure to change the install path from "C:\Program Files (x86)..." to "C:\Games" This is VERY IMPORTANT
If you have copies of the current client_cell_1.dat, client_highres.dat, client_local_English.dat, and client_portal.dat, copy them to the directory that you installed to.
4. Launch AC, log in and update to ensure that you have successfully installed AC. Answer "Allow Access" to any firewall messages that pop up.
5. Install DirectX 9.0c
6. Install Decal
6a. Again, it is VERY IMPORTANT to change the install path during the install. Change it from "C:\Program Files (x86)" to something like "C:\Games"
7. Find Decal running in your system tray. Right click, and select close.
8. Right click on Decal on your desktop, and select "Run as administrator"
9. Right click on Decal in your system tray, and select "Configure".
10. When prompted stating that "One or more of your XML files were not found!", click on the OK button
11. Click on "Update" and wait for the window to refresh with black checks instead of red x's.
12. Again, load Asheron's Call to ensure that you have no problems logging onto the server. This time, you should actually enter the game to ensure that Decal is loading properly. You should see the decal bar with the DHS icon in the upper left corner.

Okay, I got ACDC to install and I'm able to run two clients at the same time.

Here's what I did:

Installed .NET 1.1
Installed .NET 1.1 SP 1

When I installed both of the above I received a message stating that there are compatibility issues and would I like to continue? I said yes.

Right Click on ACDCClient.exe and "Run as Adminstrator."

Installed under C:\Games\... instead of C:\Program Files\...

Allowed access for the clients on the firewall alert when that popped up.

When I start ACDC I get a message that says:

"You currently have Process Performance Counters Disabled.

ACDCDualClient requires Process Performance Counters to be enabled for it to function properly.

Would you like to enable Process Performance Counters?"


I select yes and away I go.
