World Of Warcraft Loading Problem

I installed Vista, downloaded all possible drivers and updates, and then
double clicked on WoW, holding my breath. I can login, select a character,
but then when it is loading, just before I can actuall control my character,
I can't get off the loading screen. The blue line fills up and everything,
but it won't go any further. It ran absolutely perfect on XP.

These are my Specs:
512 MB of RAM
Nvidia GeForce 5200
Pentium 4 2.8 GHz
 
A colleague of mine had this same problem, and he said he got it running by
setting the resolution to it's lowest setting. I am not 100% sure if he said
he did that in the game options, or the pc itself, but I believe it was
in-game.

Sorry I am rather vague on this, but I am like the only person on earth who
doesn't play this game :)
 
Someone else said that it worked best if you set your desktop to the
resolution you wanted to run the game, not necessarily as low as possible,
but matched.
 
Thanks for that, that is good info.

Setting the resolution to the WoW resolution doesn't work, and setting the
computer and WoW to the lowest res. doesnt work either. Sometimes the game
will load and I can play, but after a while it will freeze up and i have to
exit or restart the computer. I am beginning to think that the problem is
with my video card.
 
Well you do have the MIN amount of ram required for Vista... Could be that
your running out of ram and needing to rely on your Swap file more then
you're used to, causing WoW to load extreamly slow, or even stall entirely..
WoW is a Mem hog as it is so you may try upping your memory and see if that
works for you..

just my 1/50th
