    Wow... that wasn't vague at all.... it could be anything from you not going to the Filter Menu and checking the box that specifies for only NS games, to you just not hitting the Update button.....

    Did you let the installer add gamespy arcade to your PC? If so, try using GSA to look for a server and tell us if it will connect.

    If you just try connecting to a server via the console and an IP address, does that work?

    Ehhh, it's not making you subscribe, it's asking if you would like to. Say no. Just click the gamespy link on your desktop, go to the half-life section, then Natural Selection, then connect to a server.

    And the reason you see the menu all garbled is because you are running NS in software video mode, which is not supported. You must change it to OpenGL (recommended) or Direct3D.
