		I know this question has been asked before, but the last post I could find was in 2013. 
 just formatted my computer, installed windows 8.1 64bit, downloaded assault cube and the servers will not load. I also have the portable assault cube and the servers load fine there. what do I have to do ?

		Something with write permissions?  Not too sure, but I've also had it before and this only happened when i installed under Program Files.

		During installation, do NOT use the "XP"-option.

It does not matter, which windows you're using: always use the second option!

		That worked! thank you. Do you know why that makes a difference ? I use to be able to chose the other option without problems.

		The first option works fine with Windows 98.
If it worked for you on anything newer, you were using an administrator-account to play. Don't do that :)
