    Hello all,

    I have come to experience quite a conundrum. I have recently downloaded Phantasy Star Online for the PC (not Blue Burst but the older edition). I am able to get the game to run on Vista by using a patch which will automatically enter me into either the offline or the online mode of the game however the problem I have encountered is that to enter any sort of text in the game, advanced text services must be turned off for the program. What I have found is that Vista does not seem to have an option to turn this off:

    Vista -

    As you can see I am running the game in compatibility mode to ensure that it works ok. What I am looking for is a method that will turn off the advanced text services and will let me input text for this (which being an MMORPG is rather vital). Any possible work arounds will also be great otherwise I will need to be a lonely and solitary player!

    Thanks for your advice and time!

    I'm bumping this thread back up since there must be someone out there that knows the answer to this!
