Haven't got a clue mate - wish I had tbh. It's fine for me, but no help I know. :(

I'll direct TK to this thread, see if he has any clues. He'll probably see it anyhow and help if he can.

Wierd.

i had this twice each time its ok until it gets to the last server it checks and then the HD goes into overdrive.

only way i sorted it was a reinstall cant remember exactly how i did it but i needed to repatch it when i installed it

I have asked TK but he must be busy, but as FB states, there is a little patch issued by WP to fix this. I remember now, thanks. I have no idea where you get it from other than FB's kind offer.

Soz for not replying guys, been a bit off with a ruddy cold.

Anyhoos its defo wvgames.dll, as Wireview doesnt auto-patch when run, but it does patch when you run wp2.3 (so reinstalling wont fix anything, you gotta run 2.3 so it patches wireview). Sticking that file in your wireplay2.3 folder and over writing the file already there will fix the prob.

This happens all the time actually, and I've even uploaded it to me site cos so many people have asked me abut it over the last 6 months or so...

If you still have probs with it giz an email adn we'll see what else we can do...

I got it working yesterday after re-formatting.

Install the old Wireplay first then the new one, in that order. Look for the file wvpowerplay.exe in the old Wireplay and drag it to your desktop for a shortcut.

Hope that helps.
