Hello INF people. this might not be the place to post problems with inf but im doing this quick cuz i have to leave in a few. Im NOT sure if this is an error, but INF doesnt seem to work well with windows XP. When I am playing (and a few of my other friends do) we get general connection faults an sometimes the keys (mouse keyboard and all) freeze up on us and inf doesnt respond. please email at dj_majyc@yahoo.com and notify me if that is a real error with 286 or i need to fix something in my files

This happens to me too. INF just freezes. I would be playing online, and I can't move. I can be killed, I can see everyone else moving around, and I can read the messages, but INF just doesn't respond. I have to hit alt-tab, then ctrl-alt-delete to quit. I want help too.

Yes it really bothers me and i hope it can be fixed. maybe its becuz inf 286 was made for lower windows versions cuz it came otu before xp, i wouldnt know im still learning this computer stuff. mainly use it for games and 3D rendering. and Drkbls what you mean by *moved*? like i said before im still a little newbish to the forums but im not newbish to the game itself :D :cool:

This isn't an INF problem, it's an XP problem with the drivers you're using. Make sure you get the latest drivers for ALL your hardware. Like my soundblaster live's sound in UT was messed up with the default drivers but an update cured that.

When DarkBls puts *moved* that means you started a thread in the wrong section (i.e. this belongs to troubleshooting, where it is now :) ). Ah, BTW, I have XP and INFIL runs perfectly here... do as Grunt_X said you, get the latest drivers and all should be good...

Good luck!

Same problems used to happen to me. Check your memory, as it turns out the pricks who sold us our computer put bad memory inside it. Some new memory cured all our problems. I run XP, and it is flawless.

hehe... well, I know that all Windows OS's have their glitches, but sometimes what appears to be a fu*ked up Windows is some hardware conflict in reality... as I said before, since I have XP no problems have arised... but that doesn't mean it is perfect :)

VERY true midwinter. i've noticed something with windows. me and my friend have the SAME stuff for xp his runs fine he gets the same glitches as i do with the shutting down and stuff but in the past we had similar windows os and i had different glitches than him. For example windows ME my mouse would freeze on me but my keyboard wouldnt and could move around liek a crackhead lol. but my friend never had that problem. in conclusion there are numerous random glitches "tossed" into windows :D
