After the recent update my SE is not loading anymore, I'm running in windows 8.1 Pro 64 was playing normally before the update
Now when I click on PLAY there's the message: Contacting Server...
FOREVER! The game just don't start, no matter if windowed or full screen

Yes I've ran as admnistrator and I've tried the repair and downloaded / reinstalled the game about 10 times alredy.
I have to close the game (since nothing happens) and there's an error message, as following:

"The instruction at 0x01a62958 referenced memory at 0x039f3740. The memory could not be read.

Click on OK to terminate the program"

Please help me I don't know what to do, and why this is happening since the recent update (11/15).
