Hey guys, I was wondering have any of you experianced UT just hangging up during game play for a few seconds? It happends a few times during the game. I am on cable and have the game set so it know's I'm on cable, and I don't have anything running at the time.

It seems to happend pretty randomly, but it's starting to bug.

Any Ideas?

Got the latest VIA 4-in-1's installed? Or how about latest video drivers?

yeah on the 4 in 1 I believe. And I've updated the drivers but I guess I'll have to look and see if there anything new. It's kinda weird that sometimes when I watch movies or play music. My computer will LOCK HARD!!! and I'll have to do a soft reset.

I don't know if it's cuz of the overclock or not. (might be time to check my pencil marks)

Hmm......I had the same problem on my dads GeForce 2 Ultra machine. The only fix was to uninstall and then re-install unreal tournament.

hummm I really really don't want to do that. I know I got cable but some servers are slow and it takes forever to download a map from a slow server.

But I might have too. Maybe I'll just try a different patch.

Thanx for the input

Does it do the same thing if you play single player? IF not its just your connection.

DUH I didn't think of that. But I haven 't played single person in a long time.

I"ll have to try that.


Thanx

Well It seems that it was the video drivers. I think I was using beta drivers.

I just installed the 21.83 driver for my video card and everything seems to be working fine.

Thanks for your help.

yes...the newest nvidia drivers had issues with Win XP and 2K and there were some Via problems too

I was getting the infinite loop error in XP till I went back to 21.83
