Can't play as a specific character on a certain account

Post by Funeral Pudding »

Whenever i sign on with this character my screen is stuck in minimized. I'm using Windows 7, so when i hold my cursor over the UO box, i get a small view of the window and i can see and hear that stuffs going on, but i cant maximize the window. And it's only this one character. I can log into other characters on that account and my other accounts.

Anyone experience this before?

You might also try deleting /Desktop/account name/SecondAge/character name from your UO install folder. Could be a corrupt configuration in there, since you mention this problem is character-specific.

This is often solved by right clicking on the window in the task bar, selecting move, then hitting an arrow key and dragging the mouse around. The window position was saved off screen.
