mIRC CHAT: proplems

I had mIRC downloaded, but the trail was running out, so I deleted it, and downloaded it Exactly the same way as when I first did it.
But now it wont allow me into MatrixMania or MatrixHardline
It comes up in the room, but I am the only user in there, There are no "bots" or other "users" on the side panel.

And i know it doesnt register the room, because i logged onto the builtin chat room in here as a guest, and it didnt come up in my mIRC as a guest being logged in.
I am a registered user, but it doesnt register me when i come in anymore (eg: type in password does not appear)
also when i type: /server irc.chat-solutions.org to join a room, it comes up with "you are not in a channel"

So I am wondering if anyone knows what I am doing wrong??

(Please do not reply, If you dont know what I am talking about, or are not able to help me out, saves me checking it, and reading "Oh, I dont have a clue what that means" Which can get extremly annoying)

thanks--

are you sure you are connected to the right server?

if you are, then i have no idea

Yeah, in your status window, make sure you log onto the right server. You should type this:

/server irc.chat-solutions.org

then try logging into a room. ;)

yes i type in that, it comes up with: "you are not on a channel"
but when i go to "file" to connect, i already am, and the only option is to disconnect.

Okay, does it say what server you're connected to?

I would just type /server irc.chat-solutions.org
and then /join #MatrixMania

That's all I know. Perhaps AgentIns will have more to say about it at MH. I mean I'm not good at troubleshooting this program too much yet.

Thanks for all the help guys. I went into the inbuilt java room in MH and agentIns guided me through it (god bless his sole :p)
I was connect to a "quake" server, which was some kind of interactive game, I dont have a clue how I got there...
Anyway all is well now :D
