Do you mean nothing shows up in the DOS box at all?
Or does all the text pop up and then nothing happens? If this is the case then it might actually be working.

im pretty sure he means it comes up real quick then just kills itself, I've seen that excrement numerous times, good, cuss it wont lag you up, but don't give you enough time to see wtf is going on 8^(

If you have just "+set dedicated 1" in the target field it will start a dedicated server, and just sit there. You have to tell it to load a map in order to actually start up. You would do that by having "+set dedicated 1 +map shattered" in the target field. And no, the map does not matter.
