check out ur taskmanager maybe your pc is overloaded
wait 2-5 minutes
or try it with a reinstall 
complete reinstall with revo unistaller or similar

if everything is under 50, it's ok
have u already tried to unistall to with revo unistaller and installed to new?
so you ALL removing registry entries
which usually does not go through the normal way

CPU/RAM usage and even system temperature do not affect whether you can see servers or not. In the event of 100% RAM usage it will utilize swap instead (in other words, it will use your primary drive as RAM). 100% CPU usage... no problem either. Sure, it will cause your system to slow down, but it won't cause issues like the one described in this thread. Same story for system temp.

 

And please... please.... do not use third party applications to remove software from your system. I tend to call that kind of software malicious.

 

 

Anyway, back to the original issue. ScTALE, when did the problem start? Are you aware of any changes right before the problem first started?

What exactly do you mean by "I can't see servers"? Does it mean that the server list is empty, or do you mean you can't join any server (or both)?

The problem stared last morning. I haven't done anything in theese days. I can't see any server in the server list, in the favorite's list i can see the name of the server with 9999 ping, the main server list is empty. I can't enter in every server using direct connection (writing the ip addres) too.

thomas what I mean is the pc ram needs to work and if this is not available the pc cant work so it works slowly

then it is likely to be due to the firewall 

Remind me when I really come at the first run of to a popup by asking whether some functions should be blocked by the firewall, the na of course confirm with no

Tried re-install the game? Think it's not necessary but goes quite fast.

Update the ini file in the VirtualStore. The VirtualStore is located here: C:UsersyournameAppDataLocalVirtualStore
