Pretty simple problem, on my old computer (Windows XP) I used to be able to host games on Warcraft 3.

Now on my new computer (Vista) I can't, even after I forwarded the warcraft ports.

Any help? Need more info?

Thanks!

Welcome to Geeks to Go.

Have you triend right clicking the game and selecting "run as admin" when you play it?

If that doesn't work, it's also possible that a firewall could be present on your new system that restricts the game's internet access. Have you tried setting Windows Firewall to allow all connections made by the game? Do you have any other firewall software installed?
