KAG I see launcher for a while, then it disappears.

Hello!

When I start KAG, I can see a black window, then comes the launcher, which downloads kag_news, and then disappears. After many tries I did a screenshot of this: http://screenshooter.net/3212681/ygkujvy

I've tried to update Java, download newest drivers (well, this worked for one time, I could run the game but it couldn't authenticate game with my Steam account), reinstall the game - but it never let me play. I deleted version.txt - nothing. I'm using Windows XP Professional (5.1), I have AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+, MMX, 3DNow (2 CPUs), 2GB RAM. Please, help me!

 

Can you start KAG from pathtosteam/SteamApps/King Arthur's Gold/KAG.exe and give us the log?

 

Where can I find the log? When I try to start from KAG.exe it shows this window http://screenshooter.net/3212681/nsnhbkk and when I click "play" the window disappears and nothing happens.

 

Ok, so most of the logs have only one thing in it(and the latest too):
[15:51:23] Config file not found '../autoconfig.cfg'

BUT - after downloading newest drivers (when the game started) there is much more:

[01:46:09] Config file not found '../autoconfig.cfg'

Everything seems fine... I'm starting to think, that I'll never play this game :<

 

Still nothing.

 

Nothing happens when I disable windows firewall and my antivirus.

 

This issue seems to happen to a lot of people unlike a lot of games, maybe asking a developper?

 

Thank You! I'm waiting :)

Maybe some kind of anti virus is blocking the way to connect to the API, try to disable your anti virus and maybe than it will work
