Can anyone please provide me with a solution on how to fix this blasted problem? I just used all 20gb of my monthly bandwidth downloading this game (cursed Australian bandwidth limitations) in the hopes I could spend a month playing the game whilst it renewed, however I'm stuck now with no bandwidth and no game, I feel a bit ripped off especially that tech support wasn't able to fix it for me and eventually stopped responding.
Comp specs:
Core i7 720QM 1.6ghz
4gb RAM
ATi Mobility Radeon HD 5730 with 1gb vram
Plenty of hard disk space.
Win 7 64 bit
Any help would be appreciated! Please please PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not send the the thread off topic. If there's an answer here, I want it to remain for others to see. Nothing is more infuriating than googling a topic and finding a thread that is spot on regarding your issue and then ends up going offtopic onto some stupid amd vs nvidia war.
Also, if required, here is the debug console log:
