That explains it!I tried installing Adobe Flash 10 and made it a little further, but then the game just greyed out again. :-(I'll give it a try on my virtual machine. I shouldn't have any problems here.Anyway, thanks! Thanks, Rich. :-)

However, you can run Flash Player in a 32-bit browser running on a 64-bit operating system."..and with that said:http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.htmlFlash Player 10 *might* solve the problem when used in Mozilla Firefox as FF is a 32-bit browser (Mozilla has no native 64-bit offerings at present). That in combination with Flash Player 10 should get some progress so you can actually, y'know, play the game. :) The answer was in your last sentence. :)

I wanted to give a little report on my experience…

When I read your post last week; “Want To Shoot Rich In The Face”, I immediately went and signed up for Quake Live.

I installed everything as prompted, but when trying to connect to a game or practice session, the screen is greyed out and I can’t see anything. I can hear gun fire and everything, there is just nothing to see.

I tried disabling all my security applications, including anti-virus and firewall. Secondly, I uninstalled the Quake Live plugins then reinstalled everything. Still no luck.

This happens in both IE and FF. I’m running Win7 64-bit.
