Panzer830x 0 Posted July 10, 2009 When I join a server it plays for a few seconds and then the whole screen just messes up...The best way I can describe what it looks like is when TV goes off the air...All of those colors except thinner bars..And I have to manually shut off me computer because it freezes everything.
