chuling

Hi, I am trying to host a LAN game of OFP using XP Pro, and i cant do it. I installed it, patched it to 1.46, and it took forever to create the server, I could see other players join, but had nowhere to add them, and couldn't see myself at the screen where you place people on teams. Since then I reinstalled, and fresh off the CD I still cant host, now it kicks me to the desktop. Please Help me figure this out!!! Thank you!!!! CH
