Ok, i downloaded paintball 2, then when i finished, i closed out and went to the paintball 2 icon on the desktop, i clicked it, and all it was was a grey screen when the window came up, and never loaded, just sat there, then i had to close out, and hit end now. I'm using a windows xp. when i first did it, it said firewall- unblock, keepblocking, tell me later. i Hit unblock and it still doesnt work.... I have multiple firewalls also, just dont kno where the other ones are.
-plz help-
thanks

I would think if it's just staying grey, you might want to make sure your video drivers are all up to date and go from there.
Also, if in any of your firewall settings, you can unblock by program, you should do that as well.

I did unblock one of my firewalls, i dont kno where to find the others though, but ill try to update my drivers
-
how do i update them lol? i can't find any updates on the microsoft site.

Find out what model your computer is (if it's a laptop it says underneath) then go to your manufacturer's website (eg. Toshiba) and find 'drivers' somewhere on the site and navigate to your computer and get the latest drivers. If that doesn't work, then downgrade your drivers until it works. If that doesn't work, get a new computer

Sent you back a PM. Hope this helps to get you on the right track.

Ok i got this to work, and the game actually loads now, then when i try to join a game it says:
Bad Password
Connection Failed
plz help
-
Ok When it says that its because you tried to join a PRIVATE SERVER which requires a password to get in.
If you dont know it, Change server but if you know it, here's how to get in it
When it says: Bad password you have to type
Password (enter password)
For example: i got password for X match server. It is forfun, then when u go in the ''Xserver'' type: Password forfun.
Hope it helps

alt+tab yourself to the game window?
Do you have the latest version? The mouse shouldn't get stuck anymore with the latest game version
