When attempting to log onto Valkyrienet for some MP action, I am told that the main server cannot be reached, and that I should check to see if I am connected to the Internet. When I attempt to hit the back button to back out of the Vnet screen, the game freezes up (fortunately I am able to end it with ctrl-alt-delete). I tried to following the game's advice and connecting to the net via Internet Explorer first, but that made no difference. Any help would be appreciated. Here are the vital statistics:


Version 1.05, US

Operating system: Windows 98, 2nd Edition

CPU & speed: Can't seem to be able to find this one.

Memory: 256 MB RAM

Free hard disk space on the drive EU is installed: 4.73 GB

Video Card brand and model number: 3dfx Voodoo 3

Sound Card brand and model number: VIA PCI Audio Controller - Avance AC'97 (WDM)

CD-ROM or DVD-ROM brand and model number: Matshita CD-ROM CR-585

Ethernet card (network card) brand and model number: NDC 10/100 Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter (MX-A) (MX987x5)

Mention that you read this thread before posting: Mentioned :D

It should also be noted that my machine is networked to another which has the direct connection to the cable modem by which I normally log onto the net.
 
I believe the problem is with V*net rather than your config :(

try to play IP games instead of Valkyrie net for now.

I'm moving this to MP, maybe somebody knows better than me.
 
Everyone experienced this problem... its paradox itself that is having troubles... " the main server cannot be reached "
just dont clic on any channel.. and you should be able to clic back whitout freezing...

just come back later for better luck...
