hmm this never happens to me but anyway i think that maybe ur comp isint
fast enough to play it. i mean intel integreated graphics arent that great
at all.. even some people with great comps have trouble playin it. i play
the game fine (case i have an area 51m wiht ati mobility radion 9600 128mb-
1 gb ram...and so on and it sometimes get slower when i play 8 players. but
some people with good comps have trouble on 3 players. I have heard that
this game has a bad net code. no idea what that is but basicly this means
that even with good comps this will still lag at some poits.- Some of the
mods that i make lag a whole bunch too cause of different things- but those
are mods
Maybe if u install direct x 9.0 again it might work.
