I has the same problem, and I wasted money adding funds to paypal and to a credit card, they all failed! The most funny thing was this reply I got at one point:
“Your PaySafe is still good for use elsewhere. It’s just not going to work for Guild Wars 2.

I felt like he basically told me to take my money and leave.
I tried choosing Austria too, to see if it works… but it did not work, I still got the same error …
Dont get ur hopes up with just upgrading the vid card.
GW2 is heavily influenced by CPU.
To be blunt ..ur rig is not capable of playing GW2 with ‘playable’ fps. You will need a new one.
Dont go cheap on the CPU with GW2 ..u need a intel 2nd or 3rd gen i5/i7 ..preferably a K version for overclocks.GL
I bought this PC a year and a half ago, spent about 1500$, without buying a new monitor or accessories. I have no issues with the processor, and i think it will run fine if i get native rendering and medium quality on pretty much everything in WvW.
The processor has more cache memory(around 6mb) than anything in its price range, and i can safely say it’s paid it’s price.
“I don’t think I’d even pay $150 for a video card for this machine; since I doubt you’re using a 1080p monitor with such a system and its probably got whatever garbage power supply it shipped with, recommending anything more than a ~$100 Radeon HD 7750 would be irresponsible.”
I play it at 1440×900 resolution, anything less looks weird on the wide screen. The power supply is 600W.
A 100$-150$ video card seems indeed a sensible solution, but i’ll need to read more up on it before i buy one.
That’s all i needed to know. I’ll look at the options for video cards later. Thanks for the tip on overclocking vs unlocking for Guild Wars 2, and in fact the game does actually run super stable in questing in all zones at 22 fps with lowest rendering and High Quality on character and environment.
I run the game at sub-par rendering to get steady fps. The processor can become a pretty stable quad core trough core unlocking. The graphics card is integrated. Can i play the game at native rendering quality with this PC or do i need to upgrade the video card?
