LAN problems

[westausgirl]

Hi,

We have just put new motherboards and processors in our computers and now when we try to play Land Warrior or Task Force Dagger we have problems connecting over the LAN. Both computers see the games on each other. The host computer goes into the game straight away but the computer joining either takes up to 10 minutes or more to join or doesnt join at all. Yet previous to our upgrades we had no problem at all. Both computers have been set up to how they were before the upgrade.
If someone could please tell me what to look for as being the problem it would be greatly appreciated.

Gratefully Yours

Tricia

sounds about normal for lw/tfd, i think lan was an after thought by nova. sry i know this doesnt really help. you were lucky that things were ok before.

Have a firewall? That can mess this kinda stuff up. You installed IPX/SPX network protocol right?
