Help!!!!

Post by CoolerKing »

It's one of those annoying things but everytime I log onto COD4 my I am allowed to play about 10 seconds and my connection times out. Then I try to go back and I can't connect at all.

Does anyone have any ideas on what is causing this?

I have disabled the firewall, updated punkbuster and my Nvidia driver. No effect.

Suggestion would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Cooler

Are you getting any error messages in the console? You can always check to see if you have any corrupted files. http://www.fpsadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13507

That sucks, is this all of a sudden? For the heck of it, try rebooting your cable modem/DSL/router.

Try creating a multiplayer game and see if it does the same thing.

Thanks all. I tried winsockfix and it seemed to work. But I only tried it twice. I will let you know how it worked.

Cheers

My cheese now sucker! Muwahahaha.

Seriously, I had some awesome white cheddar on crackers yesterday.

I actually played last night for the first time in a while. I'll have to look for you guys. I never see anyone when I play. Of course, I don't know where to look.

First of all. I'm sorry I couldn't play last night. It seemed like the perfect time to play with so many on. It would have been fun. I am nearing the completion of a renovation project in my lower level of the house. Now is crunch time becaue the tenants are moving in Sept. 7. After that I will have much more time on my hands as I descend into the life of a University Student!

Homework of course but more time none the less! Heck even Den was lurking in the background there. Hi Den!

Ayyla have to say that whenever you are on vent I picture that anime caption with the angry blonde girl. Strange that is how I picture someone.... Just thought I would share. I didn't get the chance to ask either how is Thowarr?

Cheers,

Cooler

Hope to see you in game soon Cooler!

You didnt need any help. You picked me off a few times but it was good to hear from Thowarr. The more PHX players on the better.

Arch: Eh, with the military you never know. He's going to be there for 6 months this time, unless they change their mind. I won't have to move while he's gone this time. I'm also closer to some kind of family. The holidays will suck though (Christmas, Anniversary).

I always have some freakish medical issue while he's gone. I wonder what it will be this time?

Zero: Muwahaha! If I didn't let myself get so rusty by not playing all that often I might not be half bad.
