Yes, you're using the wrong client. You must use the Renewal client (shortcut name: Ragnarok; file name: Ragnarok.exe) to play on the Renewal server, Chaos, and the Classic client (shortcut name: Ragnarok Classic; file name: ClassicRO.exe) to play on the Classic server, Classic Loki.
It's… unfortunate that the Renewal client selects the Classic server by default.

It does? I thought it defaulted to whichever server you'd last played on that computer.Yes, you're using the wrong client. You must use the Renewal client (Ragnarok.exe) to play on the Renewal server, Chaos, and the Classic client (ClassicRO.exe) to play on the Classic server, Classic Loki.

I meant the default on new installations (which means that all new players will be exposed to this problem).

Try updating your GPU drivers. If you don't know how to do this, then please provide me with the details of your GPU by completing the following instructions:
If that doesn't work, then try running the IRO client in compatibility mode.
By the way, please stop creating posts pertaining to the same problem in different threads, creating duplicate posts, and posting replies in threads that you follow links to. Doing these things makes it much harder for everyone to help you.
- Press Windows-R (the Windows key and the R key).
- Type "msinfo32" and then press enter.
- Navigate to Components → Display in the left pane.
- Press control-A and then control-C to copy the information in the right pane to the clipboard.
- Paste the copied text into a reply to this post.
If that doesn't work, then try running the IRO client in compatibility mode.

Thanks. Just so you know, you can press the "edit" button to correct an error in an existing post.
The manufacturer of your GPU is Intel. The easiest way to update the drivers for Intel's hardware is to use the Intel Driver Update Utility. As the Intel Driver Update Utility's web page says, you must have Java installed if you want to run the software in a web browser other than Internet Explorer.
If updating your GPU drivers doesn't resolve the problem, then try running the IRO client in compatibility mode.

I have changed the compatibility to run as windows 7, and with the intel driver update it wont alow me 2 install anything it came up saying something about my graphic's card, witch it was saying along the lines of if I wont 2 edit fix or update the graffic's driver I need 2 see the computer manufacturer or it could cause technical issues witch I don't wont 2 have 2 contact the computer manufacturer since this is a brand new laptop that I bought yesterday, is there anyway around it, I mean ragnarok isn't exactly the newest game on the market I would think that a new laptop could play It with no problems,

now when I try 2 play it, it just jamm's itself on 100% after the char select, is there any otherways I can play the game in Fullscreen without it jamming on me? (what I mean by jamming is) I cant do anything unless I restart my computer, cant open any pages/files I can only close them, cant see anything apart from the ragnarok loading screen and the bar dwn the bottom that tells you what programs are open I cant evan use task manager 2 close down ragnarok?

Wait… does the problem only occur when the client is configured to run in full-screen mode? I don't think full-screen mode currently works in Windows 8.
The RO client actually has worse compatibility with newer hardware and versions of Windows than older ones because its graphics programming has barely been updated since it was written 12 years ago — it's still based on DirectX 7!

Don't try to play the game in full screen on windows 8, it doesn't work on most systems, and when it does, you get unacceptable performance.
