Hi guys... I've recently encountered a problem with running DR-Int at the log in screen. When I tried to log into DR, I received the Error message;
Please go to 'http://forum.dr-int.com to receive an update.'
So I came here to the forum, searched through every thread and topic, still, nothing helped me solve my issue...

First, I downloaded the client from;
http://dr-int.com/downloads.php
Then after installation, I proceeded to run the DR client, Then I received the error message about needing an update at log in, to come to the forum to find it...
So I came here, found multiple threads - Such as the one explaining that you might need to run DR as administrator, (see here for example)
viewtopic.php?f=13&t=1583
That didn't work...
OK, So that didn't work for me, So I searched further, then I came to this little thread about making sure I had Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) installed... So I found a link to download the package...
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... laylang=en
Guess what... That didn't work either, I already had it, and the only options it gave me after downloading were "Repair, or Uninstall"
"OK... Now what?", Is what I was thinking...
SOooo... I post an Irate topic in the bugs section of the forum here, and Instantly I received a reply... Mostly, they were telling me everything I had already tried... but eventually, we were able to smooth things out...
A Guy posted a link for me to try, said that it should fix all my problems...
This link thanks to "Duran" of the DR Forums

Unfortunately, When I tried to unpack the file into "Local Disc (C:) > Program Files > Dragon Raja Global" (Say's that there are alike files in that folder and asked if you would like to copy the newer file over them; Yes to all) The status message of the unpacking said "Access Denied" to every file I tried to unpack.
So I come back to my thread her on the forum and Someone else has posted the solution to my newer problem...
"Elmy" States;
Unzip the patch on your desktop (or anyone that isn't the DR folder). Then copy the files that were extracted, then paste them into that folder. For some reason, that let me replace them without getting access denied.
So what I did was make a new folder on my desktop, Unpacked all the files in that new folder, Opened the new folder afterwords, clicked on the first file, then ctrl+a to select all files, then right click, copy, went back to "Local Disc (C:) > Program Files > Dragon Raja Global", Right clicked on the Dragon Raja Global folder, selected past, said yes to all, and all but the last 3 files were accepted. The last 3 files needed administrative access to be changed. That was it... all Cake and candy from there on out...
Now I went back into the DRG folder, right clicked on the updater file, selected Run as Administrator, clicked start, went full screen, and both option box's checked, input my log in and PW, and BOOM!!! my computer blew up....
JUST KIDDING lol... It worked xD So I hope this helps guys... hf n gl n DR

Just do the same thing here as you had to do with the last one. Make new folder on desktop, unpack first link files there, open new folder, copy the 2 files, past them in the DRG folder, yes to all, delete what you unpacked in new folder, unpack 2nd link to new folder, and same process from there...
Once again... GL n HF n DR!!!
