Okay, I have the game updated and stuff. But when I try the master server, like only 5 games appear. I cannot get into any of them. It's definatly not a cd crack, its the real thing, real cd key, etc. Anyone know whats wrong?

Check your filter settings. You may be screening out most games. Maybe you have it set to only show full servers? If they're full you can't join.

What happens when you try to join? Do you get a message that says you can't join, or does the game just sort of hang and nothing happens?

Do you have the correct port settings? I'm not sure what they are and I can't check– no Halo on this comp.

Ports are 2302 and 2303. Forward them to your router and make exceptions in your firewall for Halo (don't forget Windows firewall).

What message are you getting when you try to join the games?

The game used to work, I have no idea why its not working now.

Any server I try joining will get to the point where it says "Loading map (insert map name)" Then will say game has closed down.

All filters were default(can show the most amount of servers).
I reinstalled the game today to make sure it wasn't a cd crack or anything, its not.

The bottom message is telling me to manually update the game, but I already manually did after reinstallation.(I should probably completly unintstall it then reinstall it back on??)

This is all I got:
