Hey there, just purchased RO from steam. When I first downloaded it and tried to run it, it told me it couldn't create a GUI controller or something like that. I know I'm supposed to delete the system folder then validate my files, but I'm not sure how to validate my files (Wannabe computer nerd, I suppose :p) so if someone can walk me through those basics that'd be great.

I run:

Windows XP SP2
AMD Dual Core processor (6400+)
2GB RAM
512GB Geforce 8800.

At the moment I'm reinstalling RO since I was dumb enough to delete the system folder without knowing how to validate my files. I thought I would just have to run the game again to get it to create a new folder, but then I've played too much Garry's Mod. :p All help is appreciated :)

P.S. Your registration system was a bit of a hassle. I had to go use my college email address to sign up an account, but I understand that you placed that measure to cut down on zoloft/viagra spambots and the like. Between that and having a minor hassle to sign up, I'd pick the minor hassle any day.
 
Close Steam.
Go to Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/RO/system
Delete your RO system file.

Start Steam, go to MY Games,right click on the RO icon/properties/local files/verify integrity of game cache.

This will create a new RO system file.
Let Steam do its thing.

I think this is the first thing to do before going any further.
