Crashes going to lobby with Vista Home Premium

Training missions aren't on a server... they reside within the client.

What firewalls did you disable and how did you disable them? In most cases, disabling doesn't really do what you think it does - you have to actually uninstall them, then reboot.

only firewall I use is windows firewall. I added Allegiance to the firewall and turned it off.

I give....going to install XP and just wait for Windows 7 to finish beta testing...

Seems like Vista is the Windows Millenium.

Yeah I know!! so many things borked with Vista.

Have you tried turning off the Windows firewall though?

And re-installed Alleg with full admin rights. Same problem. I can do the training simulation all day, but Alleg exits when I try to get to the lobby. I think I am missing something. Are the training missions on a different server?

I have ran Alleg in the past on XP with same ISP and equipment, but on Vista, it is a whole new ball of wax.

Most likely it's AU being disallowed to write the new files. Right click the blue ASGS icon (or shortcut), go to Properties->Advanced, check the box labeled 'Always run as Administrator'. See if that helps.
