CS1.6 issues with VIsta

[darkcrunk]

When I join any server or host my own, the game freezes in the MOTD screen.

I ran 16 before. I don't remember how it worked then.

Any idea ?

This MIGHT help, I didn't read it completely, so sorry if it doesn't.

That thread has nothing to do with Vista ;/

Still Googling and trying out solutions by people. Nothing has worked so far.

[SenSeiFAR]

LOL! Like I said, I didn't bother reading it. =P

[darkcrunk]

Its an issue that happens with Vista SP1. So far, there is no fix.

End of discussion i guess.


p.s - how to solve ? get XP

[SenSeiFAR]

Dc, and other Vista users. Here's the solution.

im one of the vista user......i didnt have the chance to play cs after my upgrade from XP only on my server


BUT today

................................i found the solution for people who had this problem like me(the screen freezes at the welcome box, u cant choose the team even)

so this problem is caused by IDM (only ppl that installed the idm have this problem in fact)

esp. by the process IEmonitor.exe

what u ve got to do ..is to kill the process than delete it(IEmonitor.exe) from this location (C:\Program Files\Internet Download Manager)

no way to doubt it i ve tried that by myself and it works

From some guy in a CS forum.

Without IEMonitor.exe u will have prob running IDM...
I don't think so IDM can create any prob for CS or any soft.....

[SenSeiFAR]

That's the point, you need to shut IDM down. -_-.

Lol.

FDM > IDM.

and FDM is freeware. 'nuf said.

Thanks sesnsei... amaro ai problem hoichhilo. akon ar hoi na idm remove korar por.

Extract and put the attached file in the cstrike folder. You can keep IDM running, but you'll be disabling that screen, all you'll see is the OK button
