My system:XP pro sp2,amd 2800+,1024mb ddr ram,2x120gb seagate barracuda hd,R 9800 pro 128mbddr,Abit NF7-S v2,0 mobo

After downloading sucksessfully LW 4.8.1 Norwegian version and installing it i also installed the java thing that is recomended.Both things from limewire.com.All is well so far. When i try to start lw on my desktop i get the splash screen then a grey box comes with the question of preffered language on top, but inside the box there is nothing! just next and cansel buttons and if i press next i get questions about connection speed and what folder to use but still the box is just grey with next and cansel buttons and no other options....?? and at the end of that setup lw just close it self and nothing happens

So far i have read in this forum to find others with this problem but no luck.

so far i uninstalled lw and deleted the folder and run reg cleaner and downloaded it again in US english and tryd again but same problem as i described above.

I have opened my router firewall and the XP firewall but no change,i have used kaza before this with out any problems like this.I now have a clean install of XP

Any hint or idea would be great,Thanx so far......

I believe your problem is your video display adapter catalyst. There have been problems with the ATI catalyst.

I have a radeon X800 Pro, 1GB Corsair Ram, 120GB HD, what is the matter with Limewire 4.8.1, I start it up and it has the splash screen, then goes to the choose language window...

and there is NOTHING in it!

Not even next or cancel. What is happening there? All i can do is close the window with the little "X" up the top right corner...someone help me here, i have the lates catalyst driver, i update windows regularly...i'm out of ideas.

Where did you DL 4.8 from? The newest version is avilable at http://www.limewire.com

see if the official 4.9.29 works better for you

Yeah man, that is much better thanks! I also had to play around with the anti-aliasing a little till something showed up. It's working now. Thanks for your help mate
