Hey there. I just Downloaded XLink and I'm having a problem that I was hoping someone could help me with. I'm trying to play Halo 2, I get into a room that is hosting a game, than I go to sytem link to join the game, but than I get a windows error and Xlink stops responding. I was getting the same windows error when I started XLink, but thats not happening as much anymore. Also.. a really big problem I'm having...when I have Xlink running..and I turn my xbox on or off..it causes my computer to have a memory dump crash. Locks up and I have to reboot. It also does this when i have xlink running..and I loose my connection from PC to Xbox...(like when I load my dashboard than close the dashboard, i loose connection, than I get blue screen on PC.) I am XLink Kai: Evolution VII (most up to date) If someone could help me with this, that would be great. Thanks!

Open up kaiconfig and select the NIC your console is connected to.

I chose the connection, it got rid of the windows errors. But if I have xlink running and I turn my xbox on or off..it still crashes my computer.

Do you have your connections bridged?
If so kill that bridge and use ICS.

Bridge SUCKS and i really wish MS didn't even give the option!

Yea, its bridged. I have no idea what ICS is though, I'll have to ask a friend about that. Thanks.
