its just the luck of the trade... mine use to do it... dont anymore :) i heard around it has something todo with graphic card settings... so try these and see if it still happens (need nVidia card though)

U know, funnily enough, i used to get this wen i vid_restart'd. Until last night, wen i vid_restarted i didnt get kicked! I went to the et.exe properties, disabled visual styles, and ran in compatibilty mode for windows server 2003. Im NOT saying that this IS the solution, but it IS all i changed.

Vista, right?

im guessing you mean visual themes?

Gabt 22 Jul 2008, 16:26
No, styles. If i meant themes, i woulda said themes. A theme is an overall style, sounds, cursors, and msc's. Areo is a STYLE.

But thanks anyway.

Usually it works if you vid_restart once before joining a game. Then after that it should work normal. I have no need to vid_restart , so I haven't used this in a while.

under vista DONT minimize. only with q3minimizer.
And turn OFF UAC @ user acounts

deinstall vista
or just /exec autoexec and /vid_restart before you connect to the server

you cant vid_restart ingame :)
