Trouble joining CE maps

Well I finally got my copy of Halo CE to join custom maps after all these months. I realized I had the server and client port set to the same one. Now my problem is I can only join a custom map once each time I boot my computer. If i try to join again, it says the game's closed. That's also what it says when the round's over and a new round is about to start. So...I usually just play one round of coldsnap and then move back to regular Halo >_>

Are you sure that you have the maps being played? If you do not have the map that the server loading after a round, you will get the error message saying that the game is closed. If you have the maps that are being played, try redownloading them from http://www.halomaps.org to make sure you don't have a corrupted file or an out of date version. If none of this helps, try reinstalling CE.

Yes I do have the map being played, and the server plays the same map a few times before switching to a new one. If I had a corrupt or outdated version of the map, I don't think I'd be able to join even one round

I've already thought about that. I'll try reinstalling CE and see what happens.

Update:
I've reinstalled CE, gotten a fresh copy of the map from halomaps.org, same problem. I can only join one round and then i have to reboot my computer if I want to rejoin. The odd thing is I can join games with the regular maps just fine.

*secondary note, I can host a custom game just fine.
