<div class="IPBDescription">:- E</div>I've tried joining directly from the server browser and loading up NS and then trying to join a server. In the former case the screen goes black and NS is unresponsive. I have to alt-tab out and end hl.exe. With loading up first I see the normal server info box pop up for a second, but once it goes away the screen doesn't change and everything is unresponsive. Again I have to kill NS. Happened for the first time today, which is weird because I played NS this weekend.
