@gat, @smurf, The failing update is indicative of a problem with our auto-updater. The shortcuts to SwC Poker launch this updater, which checks for a new version then launches the client.

Are you able to start the client directly? Please try running swcclient.exe in the program folder.

@others, Those in VMs experiencing a message at launch that the client must be restarted are likely to find resolution by using bridged networking or more video memory. Please write us if that does not help, or if you are seeing a restart message and are not using a VM; we are still on the case.
