Connection problems
Hi this is Helix....summat fishy wiv me account so Saitn has lemme use his.
I seem to be on the receiving end of a really annoying problem in Joint Ops. It happens on a regular basis in the 150/100 player servers, and
sometimes on the 64 player servers.
My character freezes and can only turn 360 degrees and shoot but all the other actions in the game freeze (ie cannot run newhere), however i still see
the messages: "sos and so killed joe bloggs" etc etc. However from that poitn on i cannot continue the game whatsoever and have to leave.
I notice a T and R appear at the top of my screen (left) and the R flashes red green.
I know this is to do with my connection but im not sure how to solve it  .
(my ISP is Wanadoo and i use an inventel wireless router for those interested)
If anyoen else has this prob, or has a solution or even just a tiny idea what the problem cud be plz plz PLZ!!!!!! e-mail me....

Thanks for your time all!

My 1st reaction is to say wireless is not a good gaming enviroment, nut the symtoms piont more to a driver/hardware/software problem.
Something or many things u dont need running in the background.
Hardware running hot but not hot enough to lock up.
Mb and/or video/sound drivers need reloading or updating...I assume DX is the latest version?
