Default Limewire start up problems

I get stuck at this every time I try to start up. This is my first time downloading LimeWire as well.



Edit: I've tried some of the other suggestions posted. Downloaded the new Java and deleted the .limewire folder. Still doesn't work.

Which version of Java were you using before this happened? Which version of Java do you have now? Try rebooting & then opening LW.

What firewalls & anti-virus & anti-adaware/spyware apps do you have? Have you given permission to them for LW to run?

(Nice deskop pic!)

Have you made any video or display changes lately?

When was the last time you updated your video drivers?

ATi just put up an update within the month I believe. They're up to date.

Is your comp. a DELL by chance. If it is you need to get the updated drivers from DELL and not ATI.

My comp. is a DELL and I found this out a couple of months ago when I did video driver updates from ATI. I had to uninstall the ATI drivers and install the DELL drivers for my video card to work right even though the video card is made by ATI.

Don't ask me what the difference is I have no idea, but everything straightened up with my video card when I installed the DELL drivers.

I rolled back my video card drivers to the last release and that fixed it. Thanks for the help! For future reference I was using an ATi X800 Pro. So maybe if someone has the same problem it'll be of some help.

I was using ATi's newest drivers which was the 5.2 version. To fix the problem I rolled back to the 5.1 version.

Ooh, sounds like I'm in luck. I've got exactly the same problem as you and an X800 I'll try rolling back!
