I FOUND OUT THE PROBLEM =)
Author
okay some of you may know i''ve been having trouble with console win32 apps cause they freeze at startup! well i found out the problem was with winsock 2.0. I can live with 1.0 for now but i really think i should use 2.0 later. i know it''s easily upgradeable but any ideas how to fix my problem with 2.0?
Post your code.
Assuming you''re using Visual Studio, where does the app hang when debugging it?

Well i'm not using my code (lol my code just plain isn't working but i didn't make it from scratch so....). I got one game server to work with downgrading to 1.1 but this other server program jsut doesn't want to work (it keeps hanging at startup like before). I think it's a problem with either the way i'm initializing or (knowing microsoft) the commands for winsock are using functions for winsock 2 and it's causing problems right away. What's a good way in your opionion to initialize winsock for 1.1?
*update*
well i checked the code and the recieving functions and winsock calls are all winsock 1.1 compatible so....

{
switch(nRet)

};
return 1;
}
//MAIN GAME LOOP
WSACleanup();
return 0;
