Crossfire loading problem

Hi i tried searching the thread that was created but did not find it

Anyway , i have a problem each time i join a game it appears the loading then bam goes to black screen for 1-2 sec then go to my desktop for about 5-10 seconds and then switch back to loading

this happens to me each time i join game

CPU info:

Windows Xp 32 bit , SP3...

Anyone know how to solve this?

i have this problem !!!! i remve my driver graphic card(gf8600gt) and not work??
but format c: and new windows xp and work fine

it's graphic card install or update ur driver thanks me

I have integrated GFX card on my computer as well... When you go into CF, does the game load at all?

Mine used to load half way, stop and just throw me back out to the main lobby or dc me.

It ended up being my firewall.

Oh by the way... epic triple post o.o
