I need help i have used LimeWire for a while! but about 4 months ago it just went crazy tried uninstaling it to reinstall it no help everything goes fine the installation no problem, but when the Limewire window opens all the writing in it is giberish! i van't read a thing in the window!! why???

Wrong language setting perhaps. Go to where the Tools menu would normally be, & Options, if you recall the position of them. Miscellaneous tab is where the language can be changed. English is listed as first option in drop down menu.

Tried it wont work! it's like part of the letters are missing, so weird yet my pc is a pentium dual core got 4 gigs memory using windows xp pro service pack 2

I believe LW installer normally brings up the language settings the Java has been using. Might I suggest you try re-installing LW. No uninstallation necessary. Use this installer: http://www9.limewire.com/download/LimeWireWin-full.exe and don't flip through the options of installer too quickly. It should have a question about which language to be installed.

If that does not work, try this technique: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/333278-post2.html which means also deleting the LW preferences. There might be an issue with your Java that is affecting LW. (not uncommon for Java to give LW problems!)

hello. i have windows vista home basic operating system & i went to the official limewire site to download the application. the download went through however the installation will not. everytime i attempt to install it a safe mode screen comes up and states that there is "not enough memory to fit it". i've never had this happen before - been using limewire for several years on different pc models & this pc is fairly new so i can't imagine why it wouldn't have the capacity to hold limewire.

The Hard (C) drive holds 65GB with 45GB of free space left; there's also a recovery drive which holds 10GB with 6GB of free space left. Currently the RAM is 502 MB

now all of this is mumbo jumbo to me - i just want to know how i can resolve this issue. please help me!

Thanks,
Jscota
