Delta Force 2 multiplayer: every computer joins current game fine except for systems running XP, which sometimes join but normally don't get anywhere for more than 5 minutes.
Problem was easy to dodge the first time: host it on the XP system. Well, now there are 2 XP systems. I tried removing QoS packet, enabling NetBIOS over TCP/IP, there's no firewall, and I deleted that key as well (the D6377... one). System does other multiplayer games (using IPX or TCP/IP) fine, including Delta Force 1. Oh, and this is using the latest game version and DX 8.1 with host computers using 2000 or XP with or without QFixApp.
