Hello all. Hopefully someone out there can help me...When I join a multiplayer game set up for teams, I have a small problem. When it is launch for the first game it is fine. After game, back to ready room, but, when the second is launched I appear for a split second and then back to the ready room in the ready mode. I am running XP home and have CFO loaded. I have all 3 CFS's installed, Directx 9.0a and have 512Mb of memory. If anyone has a solution it would be greatly appreciated.....Thanks

Sounds like a firewall problem to me, I had similar problems with Norton Internet security a while back.
Ultimately, I could'nt join a multiplayer game at all unless I disabled the firewall. (Norton)
Hope this helps.

Wolfhawk,
I believe there was a number of bugs with DirectX 9.0a.
There is new a 9.0b. It might be worth trying that.
I have the same set up as you XP, CFO, 512mb and have had no probs with either a or b version of DirectX.
Scania,
You need to open a series of ports to allow the game through your firewall. The required ports are listed on the MS site and number of other places.

the trick is, Un-install CFS2, then Manually delete the folders left behind in the un-install, re-install CFS2, thats 1 of the conflictions of CFS2/CFS3, always make sure CFS2 is installed last
