it always says that i believe
does it kick you off the loading screen or does a message pop up saying that?
if it doesnt then just wait. It might just be loading the game

One thread was enough... As far as I know, not being able to get the IPX socket name isn't a 'fatal error' and you can still play esf with that error and that doesn't stop anything.

If it stops (crashes), it 'might' be because of something else. When a game pauses/crashes/hangs in the connecting... screen, it can be due to a number of things.

Do you have the latest gfx drivers for your card installed? Are you using OpenGL with a stable resolution?

Here's what you do. Right click your ESF shortcut, click properties, and in the TARGET: line, add -noipx

FULL Command Line Example~ C:\SIERRA\Half-Life\hl.exe -game ESF -console -nojoy -noipx -numericpings
