"bugged" pretty much covers it all. As far as I know, many newcomers have registration problems, e.g. the launcher asking for a subscription when you want to use the f2p model... which actually seems to me like a little something put up by EA/BW to encourage subscriptions, but, anyway...
You should ask this directly in the Customer Support section of the forums, they're being quite active and also helpful ( when they can ), so it won't hurt you to give it a shot :) !

I know this may sound silly, but first thing I've got to ask is : are your graphic drivers updated to their latest version ?
Also, something like that happened to me when the GPU fan wasn't working well and the card itself went into overheating ( I'd check that with SpeedFan if I were you : the same thing happened to me months ago and I didn't know what was causing that. In the end the GPU literally fried ).
Last thing : it could help if you could list the model of your graphics card :D !Thanks for the info, I am currently running a Boot Camp Win7 with an AMD Radeon HD 6490M. I know it's not the greatest, but before in previous times, I have had zero issue. But I am going to check and see if I am missing any current updates.
Here you can find all the drivers you need for you Radeon http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
And don't worry about the quality of the GPU : i'm running on a HD5570 so it's far worse than yours xD !
Thanks for the replies guys :D ! I decided to try the Crime Lord's Pack and I found some things I like, some that I don't, can't really say i'm not satisfied though :) ! What really bugs me is that I found the pink-purple ( sounds silly but it really is awesome to me xD ! ) color crystal twice, so i'll probably just sell the second one : can't really whine about that anyway, since it gives me +41 endurance which is quite good since I'm a Juggernaut :D ! I'll probably try the Legacy Boost ( I just got my Legacy today ! ) next month, I noticed too late that the exp required for the Legacy levels is really a lot, but it doesn't matter, hehe :D !
Guys, please, help out a newbie by answering his ( rather simple for you all, I think ! ) question :D !
I'm almost totally new to the game, I only have a lvl 20 Sith Juggernaut and, since I tried the game before it went f2p and I loved it, I decided that I *might* subscribe : I had a bit of luck though, and at the mall here in my city they were literally giving away CEs at 40 euros, so I decided to buy one, and now i've got myself 1250 cartel coins. The problem is : I don't know what items/packs I should buy. I'm interested in the Crimesomething Pack ( don't remember the name, sorry, I just woke up, but it should be the one priced 320 CC ), but is it really worth it ? Or are Cartel Coins completely worthless and I should just go for what I like most ? Please note that since i have the CE i'm currently a subscriber, so I have no need to buy things like quickbars or anything ( and I don't really plan to do it in the future, I'll probably just stay as a subscriber ).
Thank you in advance for your replies and opinions :) !

And exactly THAT is the problem. I played enough MMOs to know that any transition of this kind requires hours of maintenance, but I also know that every single time they do something like this, they have literally months to plan everything in advance and do whatever it takes to offer the best service and game experience. STILL, again, every single time a software house gets into it, they screw it up like this. I'm ok with waiting, seriously, it's not like I can't live without swtor, but what really bugs me it's that "no ETA" thing, which is just ridicolous.
Agreed, but still they can't just say "extended with no ETA". A lie on that would have been funnier
The Old Republic @SWTOR
Today’s server maintenance has been extended with no ETA. We will update as soon as we have more info. Thank you for your patience.
Seriously, no ETA ? Come on... I mean, ok, me too I'm not going to whine about 12/16/24 hours of unspent game hours, but you can't seriously tell people you have absolutely no idea when the servers are coming back up. That's almost like an insult.
