Vista vs Vista gaming problems

Hi,

I have been trying and trying, but something is missing ...
I have two Vista PCs connected via wall-plugged ethernet bridges (this way I can usen them anywhere in the house via the electricity network).
Both PCs are connected to the internet ... no problem there
Both PCs share various files (music, pictures, docs ... etc) ... no problem there

The problem starts when I want to play LAN games ... they don't find eachother ...

MAYDAY !!!

Hi AirCommando

No being a gamer I can't directly comment on the game concerned .

However quite often games, and other software will use a non standard port for communications and it could be that you need to adjust your firewall to accept whatever port the game requires
