I'm having the same problem as the guy above... I've Windows ME and I get that cannot initialize network error when I hit IPX button in the muliplayer menu. I tried it on my friend computer(on the same network) who has Windows 98 and it worked fine. I know I'm still on the network when I'm in the game 'cause when I which tasks(Ctrl+Enter) I can still browse, search the internet and download. Is this another problem with Window ME, or a problem with the StarCraft game itself?

Try verifying first that the IPX protocol is configured properly across the network. If TCP/IP is set properly, all the internet and networking stuff will still work.

Try disabling TCP/IP and just using IPX. If the network works with just IPX, then you know all the computers are setup properly using the IPX protocol.

You might try browsing in our Starcraft FAQ under the resources section here. There's some info there on configuring IPX.

Post back if you're still having trouble.
