[ET] Problem with playing online.

Whenever I go online to play; I get to the server select screen to
select a server and everything is fine. However, after loading the
files from the server, sometimes includes a download, I get about 2
seconds of play and then the program restarts my computer. Any ideas
about why this is happening?
So far I've uninstalled and reinstalled RtCW: ET, updated
puckbuster, and updated video and sound drivers.

Thanks,
Quirthanon

This is the old download crash bug. Go to www.splashdamage.com and download
the latest update. Much more stable.

Update your directX drivers. You may want to run a dxdiag from the "run"
command to see if some kind of problem pops up. I'm betting you have an
Nvdia?

Well, I was already at DirectX 9.0c but I downloaded and installed
it again. That seemed to fix it, at least I haven't had the problem
since I did that.

Thanks for the help.
