do you use win 7 or vista ?
if you do, you have to start the game with admin-rights
that migh help

I fixed mine this way..
Go to C:\Program Files\Palestar\GameCQ\.Cache\DarkSpace
in there there will be a exe file called DarkSpaceSetup
Rename it to ClientSetup
Then to the the Lauch tab and Launch the game.
It should now work (Well atleast it did for me)

Actually, I JUST started to have this problem after the update yesterday... I thought I was going crazy. I will try to fix it by the methods here. Windows 7 here.
Edit/Update:
Ok. I checked and my cache folder on my one partition (just recently installed DS on it) did NOT have Client.exe or ClientSetup.exe in the cache folder. Just DarkSpaceClient.exe and DarkSpaceSetup.exe
Copy-Pasting/Renaming DarkSpaceClient to Client and DarkSpaceSetup to ClientSetup did the trick. [ This Message was edited by: Kefka Palazzo on 2010-03-07 13:07 ]

Problem fixed. No client patch required. [ This Message was edited by: BackSlash on 2010-03-07 16:12 ]
