I know this may sound stupid, but I have to ask. The servers you are joining, do they have custom maps? If they do and you don't have the maps installed, that's why you can't connect.

It's normal for your monitor to go blank during start-up (of the game). That's while your computer is going through the configs and beginning the processes it needs to run the game (like OpenGL, etc.).

I would first try connecting to one of the EA servers (MOHEast, MOHWest, etc.) as these servers only run stock maps (and stock options). If you can't connect to those, then here's some other things you might want to ask yourself:

Did you install any mods, maps, skins, etc.? If so, removed them all and install them one at a time, all the while connecting after each install.

If you can't connect without mods, maps, skins, etc., then the problem may be something else. Do you have the latest patch (1.11)? Do you have broadband or dial-up? Consider the location of the servers you're trying to connect to. Also consider downloading the latest drivers for your video card, modem, nic cards, etc. And finally make sure nothing else is running while you're playing MOH.

Just a thought. angel:
