I've spent some time looking, and cannot find help. Halo stopped showing the text telling who's been killed, and what not. Text doesn't even appear when I try to type something. Any clues?

its a bug in halo known as "text bug" lol, not sure what gearbox or bungie call it, but its just a simple bug in halo, that happens randomly basicly i cant see a pattern in why it appears in games

if you close halo and re-open it, it normally fixes it, but you may need to do this twice, if your so unlucky you get the bug appear again lol, happened to me more than once that has

Go into your halo folder and run and install msxmlenu.msi. 9 times out of 10 it will permanently fix it.

Restarting the game always fixes it for me. Unless you get it a lot...
