additional stuff you want to try..after your reinstallation of RA2 and YR..try copying the Multi(md).mix files from their respective CD's.. 'coz the Multi(md).mix contains the multiplayer maps..this will reduce the seek time of the CPU to your CD-ROM drive..by default the setup in RA2 just copies 2 .mix files namely: ra2.mix and language.mix ..

the same goes with YR too..langmd.mix and ra2md.mix..just copy the multimd.mix from the YR CD to the default RA2YR directory..C:\Westwood\RA2..

sometimes..patching it or updating it..would be helpful..but sometimes it is the cause of the crashes..when the game is not patched up or updated properly..one of the common symptoms is KABOOM!! You've Lost..and you see your base have been reduced to debris..
