Hi... You are my last great hope!
I have a dsl mdoem and a software firewall (zonealarm), which i turn
off. My system works great for all other internet games including
nascar 3. I have done the alternate lookup for my IP address and it
shows in the connect via. I put in a KNOWN good ip for a race and i hit
start. No matter what I do NOTHING HAPPENS! I get no time out error. The
machine does not lock up it just sits there until i finaly hit exit and
leave. I heard that PAPY techs read these and I hope that I might be
able to help them solve a BIG BIG problem for their new game!
Thanks
Jim

Hi
It take some time to conect.........
SZ
You need to put in more system specifics. N4 works fine on-line with my
system and I have a DSL modem and software firewall also. No problems for
me here.

ports until you get connectivity. I say this because if I configure my
firewall in a certain way, I can't connect to VROC. So I don't think the
problem lies in the N4 demo.

Even if i exit or kill the firewall it�s still running...
What I did was downloading taskinfo2000 (Don�t know where - search)
and terminated the process tha was running (not showing in taskmanager
win98)
and things worked fine :)

Zonealarm has a couple different threads it opens up when it starts
(minilog, truevector), not all of which are killed when you exit from
the tray icon. Check with MSCONFIG|startup to see what it loads and
kill it from there, then reboot. When you want to put it up again,
recheck the items in MSCONFIG and reboot again.
