Problem 1: Anarchy Online unable to obtain write permission for its own
folder when "Run as Administrator" not checked

Problem 2: Anarchy Online falsely triggers the error reporting routines when
run with Administrative mode, durring changeover from Anarchy.exe to
Client.exe, even though everything works flawlessly.

Problem 3: mild directx based text distortion in game running 1 client

Problem 4: severe directx based graphics distortion, loss of texture maps,
in all clients when running more than 1 client (under XP i have had as many
as 5 clients running in windowed mode with no problems, and was able to
alt-tab between any of them)

Problem 5: Running Vista in 32 bit color using updated video drivers from
Nvidia and Anarchy Online in 32 bit color mode results in instant crash even
in windowed mode and minimizing or alt-tabbing out of the client. Minimizing
or alt-tabbing only works with both Anarchy and Vista in 16 bit color depth

the folder update permission for the user, it was annoying but is finally
working fine.
