What? Play a game? FOR FUN???
This concept of fun confuses and infuriates me!

Do you mean when the game is loading the map? Or ingame Halo will just randomly freeze up on you?
I have the problem of Halo freezing on me when I play online alot. But I've come down to 2 choices of whats causing it.
A. I need more RAM
or
B. Halo and XFire are competing for bandwith, and Halo doesnt like competition. Espically when it loses.

Don't bypass the profanity filter.

Try reinstalling Halo. That's all I can think of.

* Make sure that, if applicable, your video and sound cards are seated in their slots correctly.

* Use teh leaf blower and clean out any dust in your PC. It's new, so you probably don't have a lot of dust, but you never know. Dust adds insulation to the PC components which raises the temperature, which can cause crashes.

* Make sure you have the latest DirectX (9.0c) and the latest drivers for your video card.

* Thou hast spelt "-blam!-" wrong, alas, thou computer shall crash.

Yes, that graphics card sucks. Upgrade to a 6600 GT at the very least. Your CPU is also a bit slow.

It is spam.

Majinalchemy, did you see what happened to the last guy who spammed The Maw, named djjkxbox360?

He was blacklisted. Don't let it happen to you. That edit button on all of your posts is there for a reason.
