The problem is at your end. Something is either horribly wrong with your Windows installation, or you messed up your .NET Framework installation.

I found a solution for the Initilization Error. Well, I think I have. I tried running Osu! for the first few times, got the "Failed to initilize (Sp?) error" the first few times, then Restarted my OS ( I Use vista, and most of the complaints seem to come from Vista users.) I've had similar problems before so I uninstalled osu! then reinstalled in a different directory (For example, instead of C:/Program Files/Osu!)Try to do something like C:/ Program Files/ Osu!! or replace Osu! with pancakes or something you'll remember. It seems to work for me, so give it a shot if all else fails.


I hope this helps you guys.

I'm not getting any error, the little hourglass beside the mouse cursor appears for a few seconds, then disappears.
I tried re-installing with the install that doesn't require .net frameworks 2.0 and it's still not working.
Can someone help me out? I REALLY WANNA PLAY OSU!

I jsut can't seem to be able to log in to Osu!

It keeps testing the login or something, but never actually opens the game O_o
I use dial up connection. it's slow, but I tought it was supposed to work, since it shouldn't download anything unless I asked, I belive.

Before it says I've encountered a problem and need to stop. Thanks in advance!

is OSU! only works's in vista set up..

is there a solution if im a window's xp user...

i want to play OSU! but im a window's xp user...

put some installation that only works on window's xp...

its so unfair that only vista set up can only play OSU!...

the game is not balanced at all...

i hope the admin's see my post and do an action ASAP...

tnx so much :)

@tomoyo_kenchi: If you do not like the installer then try this zip for now:
