Hello. I have a problem with Halo PC and Custom Edition. The topic states the issue. Basically my computer crashes anytime someone joins a server I made in Halo/Halo Custom Edition. This only started, I believe, after I upgraded to 1.07. Are there any suggestions on how I might fix this? Thanks in advanced.

My advice is to check all of your network settings. When you join other servers how laggy is it and what ping do you usually have? Also check your graphics card, because it may not be able to handle many players on a server, but if it works on other servers than I don't know. Just uninstall than reinstall Halo.

Thanks for the reply. Where would I check my network settings? My ping is usually anywhere from 60 to 150 on other servers (sometimes higher on client servers). I guess I should have posted my computer specs before. Here they are:

- Dell 4550 running on Windows XP Pro
- Pentium 4 proccessor at 2.0 Ghz
- 756 MB RAM (soon to be 1 gig)
- ATI Radeon 9200; 128 MB; 8X AGP (running the latest 5.6 Catalyst driver)
- Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Value (5.1 speaker setup with EAX)

I'll try reinstalling halo completely if no one else finds a solution.
