You already created a thread here:

Same answer:

Well, my bet is that you don't have Steam installed. Am i right? If you are using the old WON version, you are unable to play ESF. If you use the search function above however, you see alllot more people asked the same thing, and the latest version is v1.2.3

i have steam installed and i have the latest patch 1.2.3

You could always try to search the forums for "client.dll" to check up multiple people having their problem. But mostly they had the problem due they were using WON, and not steam, anyway. Click the search link to look for it: http://forum.esforces.com/search.php?searchid=13216

There are allot of threads with your problem.

yeah i fixed it, for some reason the patch i got didnt do it, so i uninstalled everything and just downloaded the full 1.2.3 before i had 1.2.2 and then downloaded the upgrade. but i got it working now, thanks for your help man.

You could of saved yourself some trouble by patching esf with the 1.2.2 patch installer. 1.2.3 does not make any changes to the client dll, 1.2.2 does. You can't jsut install the latest patch over a non patched version of esf1.2, you have to patch it in order (1.2.1>1.2.2>1.2.3).

You could always download v1.2.3, saves you hell allot of time then patching all the time
