Can't enter the game anymore

Is your game set to use DirectX? It might be using OpenGL as accelerator and that won't run smooth on every Windows installation.

Did you configure Firewall like Kailer posted?
Do you have in your Firewall option "Gaming mode"? If so, try it.

it has been configured like this and still is like this^^ and no, no "Gaming Mode" available...

Did you try upgrading your videocard drivers? Otherwise, just remove Regnum from your computer(completely, the resource files too, especially the resource files) and install it again.

Nothing new(er) to be found... Neither I do nor some automated driver searching tools do.
Driver version: 8.16.11.8186 (nVidia)

one of the first things I've tried But I think I'll give it another shot...

Didn't think of this yet, will try it

won't do that... reinstalling windows would need many updates to be downloaded and installed, which can take days with my internet connection's speed. But thank you for the idea

Ok guys! Thanks to all of you who helped me out with this one!

NOW, as it seems, I can play normally again - means the problem is solved.

Here's how I did it:
I downloaded the game again and reinstalled it with the newly downloaded installer.
I, TOO, downloaded the graphic card's driver again (the same as I had before) and reinstalled it. (there was a message telling me that the drivers were broken or something like that, but I didn't see it. According to the date it's been broken for quite a while though, so it may or may not be the problem which caused me the trouble with Regnum)

I can't tell which one of it really was the problem, but it now works so that I can play again (if I want to). In the time I wasn't able to play Regnum I tried another game (NFS World) which I probably will keep playing for a while now, though I hope the update makes me that curios of Regnum that I want to at least test the update when it goes life (or rather I will of course test the update [and prob keep playing again, then])

I hope I can give the other users - who have the same problem as I had - a solution or at least an idea with this thread / solution

Okay, just forget my last post...

Problem re-appeared after the update, so it's got to do something with it...

Any new ideas?
