multiplayer connection

Hi. I'm trying to play multiplayer but I get the same error every time. I click on the internet server (my own sometimes) and it says loading, then taking longer than usual and then it says my account name or password aren't valid on the server. It does this every time. Anybody know if there is something I'm doing wrong or something I need to change to fix this? Thanks.

Yep, I'm getting the same thing. I'm not sure why it's doing this either. I had the beta installed on my machine, but I uninstalled before installing the retail.

Yes, that's the exact problem I am having. Apparently a lot of people have this problem. Someone needs to figure out how to fix this. )=

I un-installed and re-installed DirectX 9 and it fixed the problem. It also fixed the problem with waiting 30-40 minutes for the server list to load.

Yep, that worked for me too! I downloaded and re-installed DX9 from the Microsoft site and did the trick. Thanks for the suggestions guys.
