I cant get multiplayer too work...Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling but that did not work. I've also tried disabling the firewall but i still cant seem to get online. My other online games work just fine but my computer always expierences an error and whatnot and then lfs shuts down...
I have very limited knowledge of computers and i cant pick anything out when i try read the error report.. Can anyone help me?

To take a screenshot press Print screen button and nothing will come out, thats normal. Open paint and press paste. There you have it. I think you will have to download LFS again.

When you have the error message showing on screen, press 'PrtScn', it's above the numberpad on most keyboards I believe.

Open up a graphics program and paste the image into there, then save the image as a jpg.

Edit : beaten to it :)

The resolution of the image posted is too low, because it's been resized down to 160x156.
I think that's probably the forum resizing it when you've posted, but I've never posted an image, so don't know for sure.

Try uploading the full size image to somewhere like http://www.imageshack.us and then posting the link here.

oops, you've posted the link to your own computer, so that won't work.
Since you have that txt file, try attaching it here. (Under the Additional options under the Submit Reply button)
