I am going to assume since you are reading this, that you are having difficulty installing and playing CABAL.
Note: You must have Admin privileges on you computer to install and run CABAL.
So let's make sure we are starting from scratch:
Run the CABAL uninstaller if you are able to.
Delete the OGPlanet file in your Program Files folder if it exists.
If the installer did not run for you, make sure to clean your registry. You can do this with a program called CCleaner.
If you have done all these things, go on to the next section.
If you have never installed CABAL before, you can start here:
Make sure Windows is completely updated. Keep returning to the Windows Update page until it doesn't have any updates for you.
Update your directX and graphics card.
Disable your firewall and any anti-virus programs you have.
Start your download from here: http://www.cabal.com//DownLoad/Client
When that is finished, right click the installer and run as administrator. Make sure your virus protection software is disabled.
Launch CABAL when it is finished and allow it time to download the patches.
If you are coming from OGP CABAL:
You need to download the patch to access ESTsoft's servers. It is here: http://www.cabal.com//DownLoad/Client. Your launcher should automatically do this though.
Allow the game to patch.
If you have installed CABAL and it is not starting for you from the launcher:
Click the "Check Files" button on the launcher. Allow this to finish. (Yes, it is slow.)
Check the website for any recent manual patches you need to apply.
Turn off your anti-virus software
Turn off any extra programs
Adjust your graphics settings (e.g. anti-sampling on/off; full screen on/off)
If you are still unable to run CABAL, please contact the help desk. It can be found on the main site (http://www.cabal.com) by hovering over "Support" then selecting "Help Desk".
