ChristHenk Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I just installed Swtor on a new computer and when I try to start up the game and log in, it says "Server Not Responding". What does it mean? It doesn't seem to be any updates or anything right now. I was really looking forward to play this game with good graphics for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am guessing you have Win10 A.U. 1703 ( my pc's got the same error after AU.) so search for that or roll back to prior edition or uninstall all those updates. Search this forum for c7 error and on support from ea.com regarding SWTOR. Edited July 6, 2017 by IntegrationArch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adric_the_Red Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 As a new install on a new PC, you might simply need to make sure that the launcher.exe and swtor.exe are allowed in whatever AV/Firewall you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how do I do that? This pc came with McAfee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adric_the_Red Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 And how do I do that? This pc came with McAfee.Um ... RTFM? But seriously, I don't have McAfee, so can't tell you how to do this. First thing would be to look in the "help" menu in the software, and find how to allow a program through. Another option would be to (temproarily) shut it down, and see if that helps. (Maybe an option when you right-click the McAfee icon in your system tray. My Firewall has a "snooze for 5 mins" option, and my AV has a "stop antivirus" option when I right-click their icons.) Though if "stopping" McAfee helps, you will still need to figure out how to allow the launcher and swtor programs through, so you don't have to leave your computer vulnerable while you play.

I honestly don't think it is the AV. I've tried shutting down everything in it, but nothing works. SWTOR is up right? The servers are available?

ChristHenk Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 Would an reinstall help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristHenk Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 Found my answer in another thread. Another person had the same problem. Apperantly it's because I installed the game with the disc's instead of downloading it from the site. Going to try it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
