I don't know what the problem is, but i have a pretty decent computer and good internet (dsl, lol)
If you do know, can you tell me what ports to forward? if there are any?
are the games in the pictures the ones u cant join?
they are all servers, hmmmmmmm...
I have no idea : )
Someone else will
Do you have a bought copy of the game? Legitimate copy?

Don't own a copy of H2v nor do I have vista, so thanks for pointing that out.
Uh what does it say when you try to join...if you did try.
yes, its a legit copy.
and when i try to join it says i cant join the party at the moment, probably because i dont have a good connection to the server (the white bars by the server name)
and those aren't all the games available, i just didn't feel like taking a big screen-shot
i get that sometimes when i try to join a friends game whie another is loading. Idk if that helps. Im pretty sure it has something to do with ur firewall. Make sure u give Halo 2 full permissions everywhere (in the 'subscription company firewall' and in 'windows defender').
You didn't edit any files did you?
no, the only files i modify are the maps (i delete them)
and how would i go about giving it full permissions?
idk, depends on your anti virus software. In norton you go to your personal firewall settings and find halo2 then right click on it and set it to "allow". You can figure it out.
Could it be that your account has been banned which is preventing you from joining any of the servers? Other than that the only thing I can really see the problem being is that your firewall is blocking it.
how long happened? it might just be temporary networkk problems or problems with live. sometimes i cant join gmames either, but the problem never lasts for more than a day
if i was banned, i wouldnt be able to get to the LIVE games menu, let alone view my achievements, friends, etc and my anti virus software is Trend Micro PC Cilin.. loland its always been like that, the adambomb42x server.. i live downstate from the guy so i should have a 3 bar connection.... so im not sure if its the live serive or my firewall
Poor connection has to be the issue. I get that with some servers also.
