  There has been an update of the PS client yesterday. Since then the HUD is 1 hand behind for zoom, both 6 max and full ring. Normal tables are fine.
  
  There has also been a HM2 update available, so I installed it, no change. OS is Windows 8, running as administrator. Everything was perfect until the update of the PS client yesterday.
  
  Am I the only one having this problem?

  So not everybody gets updated at the same time? Didn't know that was possible. Anyway, hope the guys at HM can sort this out soon.

  Until we release a fix you can start the old Stars client from c:\program files\pokerstars.eu\backup\pokerstars.exe (as administrator)

  Tried running the backup version. It says "Client Program failed to initialize" "Contact Pokerstars Support"

  If the backup file is to old it will fail to start.
  Some people report that it helps to copy the backup\pokerstars.exe file to the pokerstars.eu program folder and start it from there.
  
  And i have seen reports that older HM2 releases work again with this Zoom version so a HM2 downgrade may help too.

  Haven't played zoom for 3 days because of this . It feels so naked without HUD.

  .com got updated as well and we have the same problem.
  
  However, copy/pasting all files in from the backup folder into the PokerStars folder seems to do the trick.

  It's not working for me on HM1. Is there a solution for that?
  
  I am looking through the PT4 thread and they don't seem to have any issues over there.

  Yes. Copy/paste all files from backup folder into the PokerStars folder and then start pokerstars.exe (run as administrator) from that folder. That way it will skip update.
