I get a black screen (where I only can see the decal toolbar) when I log into my character. It stays there forever... I have tried re-installing decal many times. Has anyone had this problem and found a work around for it?

I know there are some people that have run decal on vista, wondering how they got it to work.

Running Decal and even ACDC on Vista (on a Notebook) and it's all running nicely. Your AC running fine without Decal? Seems to be a directx or gfx driver prob...

I want decal, yes, turning off decal lets me in game.

And there's no chat box to render radius

Got all ports set right? Checket, if anti-virus is bugging the connection?
I do remember that there was a black screen issue having to do with NAT and NAPT. Though the last time I heard about that is years ago.

if I control alt delete then go to task manager it decides to error out:

"could not initialize direct3d. please ensure that directx 9.0 or higher is installed"
