you mean you go into NS, click console, type this:

connect IPHERE

It says "Connection Accepted" ... goes to load ... then just hangs?

Make sure you have the latest Half Life patch 1.1.1.0 .... <a href='http://www.softwarepatch.com/games/halflifedownload.html' target='_blank'>http://www.softwarepatch.com/games/halflif...fedownload.html</a>

Its 71meg.

Then try again.... If this doesnt work or you already have that patch then I would suggest you reinstalled Half Life.... install the patch... install NS.... and try connecting again.

Before that though, try a server i know is fine: 212.42.1.246:40010

No, what he means is that sometimes when you try to go to console, the black loading screen stays.

It freezes after a couple seconds every time. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

aha! Thats your graphics card then.... open Ns, go to config, go to video, go to video modes and have a fiddle with that, using Open GL, Direct X, Software mode, until you get it working.

I personally use Open GL along with about 90% of everyone else I think.

I hope this helps.
