Post subject: | Windows 2000 strangeness |
As you mighht know, i have win2k and win 98 both installed on my pc. I also have an install of Half-Life+Counterstrike on my second HD. Now, if i try to connect to a mp game in counterstrike IN WIN2K, i always get "could not complete connection attempt". But, if i try exactly the same thing under windows 98, i don't get that crap in any way and it smoothly connects. (problem is that the sound in win 98 isn't fixedyet, i'll screw open my case tomorrow to get the motherboard's developper in order to find drivers) So; why doesn't win2k "allow" me to connect to a counterstrike server if it's no sweat under 98? Does it have something to do with its implemented network-things? Btw, i should also mention that i can CREATE a mp counterstrike game without any probs under win2k, it's just the join-connecting that screws up. And no, i don't got firewalls or even a virus scanner. Any ideas would be appreciated. |

no clue. If you need me to be less technical, let me know. I really have no idea. Are they separate installations? You can connect to the internet ok in win2k? Assuming yes to both, I have no clue why it doesn't work under win2k. More than likely you didn't install it under win2k, though, just win98 and then made a shortcut in the win2k portion. You may wanna try installing it on win2k as well just to see what happens...maybe it installs some weird network component or something. |
