Now as for drivers I'm unsure about - I know mine are not the latest - so maybe I got a 'luck card' there by never upgrading them.

*note, steps below are not my credit - just put them here to spread the info so more people looking for answers may find it. Check the thread posted up there... and good luck

1) Go to Start | Programs | Accessories | Windows Explorer.
2) Navigate to C:\Program Files\Disney\Disney Online\PiratesOnline.
3) Double click on game_options.txt.
4) Make sure "state" has "working" on the line directly below it. If you see "attempted_working" change it to "working."
5) Under "api", please change the text from "default" to "pandadx9".
6) Save the file then launch the game.
Gave that a check just now as my ship still seems to be at sea....all is good on my end. I think the updates just messed up sailing again. ugh. Been gettin booted from the game each time I try to set sail, and one of my ships is out there in the ocean all by its lonesome.
