<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Yunus.</div><div> </div><div>Thanks for your answer. I have installed Grads 2 using Windows 8 and it works perfectly.</div><div> </div><div>I have not tried yet to run it without internet connection. However, concerning what you mentioned about your problem, I had the same problem using Windows 7. I could fix it following the instructions that come below, taken from another Grads user's comment</div>
<div> </div><div> <<<I just got the problem solved. Asking a friend of mine, it turns out I<br>didn't have a loopback adapter installed, so whenever I wasn't on a<br>network, GrADS wouldn't work (no local IP address available, and thus no<br>
possibility to communicate with the X server). Installing a loopback<br>adapter solved the problem. That can be done from the Device Manager in the<br>Control Panel. Just choose "Add legacy hardware" from the "Action" menu<br>
there, click on Next, then choose "Install the hardware that I manually<br>select from the list (Advanced)" and click Next, choose "Network adapters",<br>then proceed to the next step and wait for the lists to be populated.<br>
Choose "Microsoft" as the manufacturer, and finally "Microsoft Loopback<br>Adapter". Let the newly created adapter initialize and that should do the<br>trick. >>></div><div> </div><div>Good luck.</div>
