Windows XP Multiplayer
Have any of you running FS2 on WindowsXP run into problems with Multiplayer games?  If I try to start a multiplayer game it complains that TCP/IP is not available.

Did you actually go into the setup window from the launcher and set your connection type?  FS2 plays just fine on WinXP.
Gargoyles, Season 1.  Buy it, or DIE! :)

Thank you for replying.

I'm not that bad, I actually checked the manual just to be on the safe side!

If your speaking from experience of it working are you playing via a modem or a LAN - could it be the Network I wonder :confused:

It was a driver issue with the network card which I've now resolved using a nice 3COM number.

Thanks for your help.
