    Ok, the game runs fine in single player, and it used to run fine in multiplayer, but now, when i connect to a game, i go to my desktop like normal, the console pops up like normal, then the game goes back up, its at the lowest Res, and just a black screen (the only reason i know its low res, is because i have FRAPS running). Anyways, today i thought, it might just be a little hump, that my computer has to overcome. I LEFT THE GAME ON FOR 4 and a half HOURS!!! AND NOTHING CHANGED!!!

    Any solutions.

    I tried to take a video, but it didnt work, ill try again later though, and ill post the YouTube link

    I remember having a lowest res bug on my desktop Crossfire X1900 system that I built last year, and that was resolved by uninstalling and reinstalling the driver. Dunno if that would help you here, but it certainly wouldn't hurt.
