Has the game been installed in the programs folder? When did you download the game? Did you download it from our site, or is it an older version you had from before?

Let me see if I understand what your issue is...

You want to play on Chaos/Renewal.

You often/always get the ClientInfo error when starting Chaos/Renewal.

There is no "solution" to the clientinfo issue (we would need a new patch client), but there is a simple workaround. That error is caused because the patcher doesn't correctly release it's lock on data.grf in time on some systems, so the game is unable to access it. The solution is to use the patcher to patch, but not to start the game.

Open your RO folder, rightclick ragexe.exe, and choose create shortcut.
Name the shortcut something informative, like Ragnarok - Bypass Patch
Rightclick the shortcut, and select Properties
On the Shortcut tab of properties, go to the Target field. You'll see something like:
"C:\Program Files\Gravity\Ragnarok Online\ragexe.exe"
At the end of the line, after the closing quote, add (space)-1rag1 like this:
"C:\Program Files\Gravity\Ragnarok Online\ragexe.exe" -1rag1

Now, when you want to patch the RO client (you should do this first), use the normal Ragnarok shortcut, but exit out of it when done, instead of clicking start.

Then start the client by using the shortcut you just created.

Liskalim, do you possibly have an anti-virus quarantining some RO files?
