This happened to me before…
Option 1. Use a program like The All-Seeing Eye.
Option 2. Reinstall ET.

All Seeing Eye isnt for seeing who is playing but it is instead, an alternative game browser. This means instead of needing to USE ET’s ingame menus and such to join a game the program will infact find all games, which you can highly filter in any way you want tbh as well as find players… add buddys etc, and its a simple double clickt to join it.

This stops you having to load up ET and experience this crash. Hence it is a solution to the problem… or at least, a suggestive solution.

you could also try pathfinder for enemy territory, wich i find easier to use then ASE. Yet ase supports ALOT of games, pathfinder ET is specificly for ET.

Hmm, can you post your system specs? Might have too do something with that. Also, try to disable any virus scanner or firewall, wich made my game crash sometimes.
Edit: Also remove spy ware, wich could help also

What driver version for the graphics card? If it’s 50.xx series go back to 45.23, there’s a known issue with the latest nVidia drivers and Punkbuster enabled games (of which ET is one obviously).
