Screen Freezing at Beginning of MP Turns

What is happening? I am trying to play an MP battle with my friend and every time I log in I can't see his turns. He can't see mine, either.

The screen was freezing at the start of our turns and now it just sticks on the grey log-in screen and I hear all the noises of battle but can't see anything. Once his turn is over it goes to the start of turn screen and everything is smooth and fine.

without logs and system reports, it's hard to say tbh

would need build number, a report, game logs and what game your trying to play on MP

Well, firstly, this is my first mp battle so does this happen a lot? It looks like a bug to me. Game was Hylan Valley.

here is the link to the tech support pages, and as you can see, anything bug wise in a game of this age is normally all driver or pc side, not software game wise

Try not to move the mouse and keyboard when you look at the turn of a friend!

Driver and PC side seems a no go when we both had exactly the same problem.

Again, once the opponent's turn was over everything was smooth and worked fine. If my driver wasn't working properly then I wouldn't be able to bomb and attack as normal. It only happened while I was watching my opponent's attacks before my turn...
