When I start the GW program, the game suddenly ceases activity approximately 3/4s of a second after the patch box appears. There is no error message or warning -- it all happens so fast. I'll start the program, the patch box appears, and then the program ends.
I tried reinstalling. The problem persisted, but did not appear until the initial patching was finished.
A guildie of mine recommended renaming Gw.dat file. I tried this, and I DL'd a ton of files, and then it kicked in again.
GW was working fine last night. I even played on it post-patch, so I do not believe the patch to be the problem. The only thing I installed between last night and today is Windows Media Player 11 beta -- something that shouldn't affect GW at all. I even uninstalled that, just to see if it would clear out the problem, but it didn't.
I'm at my wits end. I really want to get this working by tonight -- my ladder team has a session and I do not want to miss it. But I have no idea what's wrong, no leads, no information to go off of.
Help will be greatly appreciated.
GW has ceased to work on my system

The problem was solved by a guildie of mine. Apparently, I had a corrupted registry file, which was fixed by a timely system restore.
