Cant talk or see buffer, help -1 reply

Whenever I try to talk in Halo multiplayer, the original halo, it doesnt show up on screen, also i dont see messages such as, welcome someperson or, Gen Senza killed whoever. Its highly annoying, is theres some key I have to press or something?

Have you downloaded gamespy arcade when you installed halo? I think you need it to chat and see who joins games etc.

You need to run the program: msxmlenu.msi. This can be found in the directory: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\redist". Simply run the installer and you should be able to see ingame text as per usual.

Thx sunray, and no, i didnt download gamespy, but I was able to see text until recently which is why I asked.
