Hey everyone,

I got a new Comp with Windows 7 and now i m not able to host a game anymore...Ports are open, all patches installed aso. (I was able to host with my old system and windows xp). Joining other games is possible...
I just tryed so much things and googled a lot but cant find any reason...

Windows firewall maybe? I had problems too hosting with windows 7, it was a problem with the firewall. But a few weeks ago I updated my desktop's drivers and now i'm not even able to play EE anymore lol.

Your new comp most likely has a new ip. You'll have to reopen your ports for this new pc/ip!

Firewall is not the Prob i think. I disabled it and tryed...no hosting!
