Well to start off im a C&C addict. Anyways here is my problem. I have a lan consisting of 5 computers Hooked up to a 10/100 Switch. My network works fine as far as Internet sharing and file transfers between computers. But during game play after say about 5 hrs of gaming i get a Network connection error. Ive tried to solve the problem by testing out my rj45 cables with a network cable tester, ive disabled the internet sharing Utilities since it has known to give network connection errors.. Ive also replaced some of the network cards thinking that they might be faulty. As far as resources go.. Every machine has atleast 128 mb of ram.. and the slowest processor is a celerron 566, which i think is more than adaquet for the game. So if anyone can give me some insight to this issue i would greatly appriciate any help i can use.

I was also wondering? since most Games on LAN use IPX/SPX protols.. is there anyway you can by pass it to use TCP IP with some sort of utility program? Im guessing but Westwood uses tcp ip for there Internet Game play? why would they design Lan games to be on IPX? well.. please help me if ya can.

Thanx
