Ugh!

If I am forced to do a total re-install of RO2, will my ranking be lost. I'm at 94 and I sure would hate to start all over again.
Thanks.

Uh.. no. Your rank is tied to your Steam account, you can uninstall and reinstall all you want.

Thank you everyone. Now, could you share with me the steps of uninstalling and reinstalling RO2?
Thanks for all the support.

Right click RO2 in Steam --> "Delete Local Content..."
If this is done, double click RO2 to install it again.

If you want to clear your settings and config files, you will have to delete the folder YourDocuments\My Games\RedOrchestra2.

I fix it. It was a corrupted DirectX. Yea!
Thanks for all the help.

However, once RO was working properly, I reinstalled Skype. The two work in conjunction on my grandson's computer. I load up Skype, make a connection to my grandson, then load up RO. I got into the game and as soon as I chose my weapon and entered RO, I got the "Blue Screen of Death"
I exited Skype and restarted RO and it works perfectly. I am running XP with 4 gigs of memory. They just don't seem to work together for me on my machine. Can anyone suggest a reason? I have downloaded "Team Speak" but haven't, as yet, given that a try with RO.
Thanks in advance

Never run skype with any form of game if you have less then 8 GB of RAM or a quad-core CPU. Skype is horribly optimised and will at times eat up your RAM and, if you have a dual core like i do, completly clog up 50% of the CPU. Use steam for chat, you already have it running anyways. And IMO the sound is about equal or slightly better if you use vocie chat with steam anyways.

Thanks Walleye. Have you ever run Team Speak with RO2? How do you use Steam for chat?

Are you talking about the in game communication in RO or am I missing something else? Communication in Steam?

The 2RB uses Teamspeak all the time, works perfectly.
