By work perfectly what do you mean?

You can get it to work using these tips

I cannot get the game to run under Windows Vista
Dawnspire does not support Vista out of the box, but if you follow these steps it should run without any issues:

1) Log in with administrator rights
2) Right click on the Launcher.exe icon in the Dawnspire directory
3) Choose properties
4) Choose the Compatibility tab
5) Check the box for "Run this program as administrator" (solves a known issue with downloading patches)
6) Check the box for "Make Desktop composition inactive" (solves a known issue with the in game mouse pointer)

Also check out the http://dawnspire.tinyrocket.se/#troubleshooting section of the main sight.

Some people experience no further problems with Vista others can't start a server through it or have problems joining their own server through it. Any problems keep posting we will try to help.

My problem is that when i click the actual point where I click is like 1cm above my cursor. That's really frustrating.

I use w7 and have done all the above but get the 1cm difference problem every so often - closing and restarting the game sorts it out until the next time.

If anyone has a permanent fix I would be grateful  Grin

W7 is built on thr same core as Vista so strange the problem should return after a period. anyone gets a permenant solution would be good to know the answer.

You have the wrong client. Download the right one from the website. there is one further thing you need to fix in Vista just look at the FAQ on the main website.
