Kruiz 136 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Posted November 29, 2007 I have a friend who is wanting to start ukdirt, but he can't access any servers. He gets 'waiting for reply' message. I have hosted servers before so I know its not a problem at my end, so I think its a firewall or something but I have no idea how to work Windows ME or Norton firewall. I know its a bit outdated, but it should be capable of running nascar heat surely? Thanks for any help, Kruiz
Guest Scrapman53 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Posted November 29, 2007 Not sure what the problem is Kruiz, but I used ME up until a couple of years ago, no probs. No experience with Norton here, but try and switch it off and see if that works.
F2-Fan Posted December 5, 2007 Report Posted December 5, 2007 He will probably need to make sure he has the correct ports open on his firewall to access.
Kruiz 136 Posted December 5, 2007 Author Report Posted December 5, 2007 (edited) Thats what I told him to do, but hes not the most computer literate of people. When I was speaking to him on msn, I said go to the control panel, windows firewall, and tick the box next to nascarheat.exe which should allow it, but he couldn't find the control panel..... apparently its not in the windows start pane, which led me to believe Windows ME is different in some way? Although I wouldn't rule out, it actually being there.. Edited December 5, 2007 by Kruiz 136
