What happens?  Does it crash?  Have you tried build 40?  That should fix some of the issues with the game window being off-screen.

Yes, it crashed. I tried reinstall and download newest build, but it didnt help. I played on hamachi few weeks ago and it worked fine.

Yes, it crashed.
There is difference when thing doesn't run at all or just display some error message. Would asking to copy error message (or crash report) be too much?

Try to provide much information so someone can help you fast.

Rename or delete your config file and try to start the game again, maybe there is a problem with it.

C:/Games/Paintball2/pball/configs/config.cfg

You should check windows event log and there should be information of crashing address. If you also will know what  version of dp it was, i could estimate what happened.
Information you should find looks like this on some random game crash for me:
Quote
PlanetSide2.exe
   0.0.0.0
   5244f9f6
   nvd3dum.dll
   9.18.13.2723
   52314d4c
   c0000005
   0045efd4
   1e74
   01cec523aea25960
   G:\games\PlanetSide 2 PSG\PlanetSide2.exe
   C:\Windows\system32\nvd3dum.dll
   0ffefcb8-3126-11e3-be6e-24fd52b2d998

EDIT: But basing on this isn't config problem - what drivers you have installed and have you updated them recently?
Also, note to Jitspoe: You could set up global error handler for all crashes and display window that will tell some information that it's able to gather i.e. loading phase, crashing address (along with what DLL it is and what is base address) + error code. This could make it easier to report a bug.

Jitspoe- This occurs with windows 7 more then it does with windows xp. It use to happen to me as well, the game would automatically crash with the same message, and it would be random.

Umm, Averio; delete the game fully(make sure everything is deleted), then download the game to a new folder or some other place(so like if the default location is "C:/Games/Paintball2" then download it to C:/Documents/Paintball  or  C:/Paintball2 , then check if the game works.

If that does not work, averio does this happen as soon as you start Dp? Or when you try to join a server? Do you have the password to "auto-logging"? Can you try to run DP when you are not connceted to the Internet, does it give you the same result?
