This might have been beat to death already, but.. after I score or after the first half, the game and in fact my whole computer locks up. This happens right after I click on the "OK" button to acknowlegde the TD or the end of the half. Now I have read elsewhere in the forums here that people have changed out there network card. What card did they HAVE and what card did the REPLACE. I have a LINKSYS LNE100TX(v5). I wanted to know if anyone else has this card and if it works or doesn't work. I have downloaded java multiple times JRE 1.3.1, Ive downloaded the game 5.8 twice and all the extra files required from FUMBBL.com. I even did the turn off the hardware acceleration thingy that I saw mentioned. I guess all that is left is the network card. I am at a loss here. Which card should I get? If indeed I need a new one. Thx in advance....

I had the same problems with freezing, but i solved it by clearing off the bloodbowl client, downloading it again, and reinstalling. I had to do it 3 times i think, but now i have no problems |

Hehe, just to mention it... try another OS. For a quick try knoppix would be fine. You can try that on a boot CD. |

Haven't heard anyone mention drivers for the network card, have those been sought out? |

You could also try a newer version of java. 1.4.02 is out there.
Also, Mr. Klipp has reported that a reinstall of win xp solved his problem.
Less drastic approach would be to pull out your network card and remove the drivers for it. Reboot once so win xp knows the card is gone. Then plug the nic card back in and boot letting xp find and reinstall the drivers for the nic. Dunno it is would work but it might be worth a try if you don't have access to another nic card (or don't want to buy another one). Or don't want to do a full reinstall. |
