i keep getting this after about 1 min play. really annoying. ive tried getting all punkbuster updates, doesnt seem to help any ideas ?

Get on the teamspeak then we are were. mutch more easier to explain...Dont now in witch order you instaled and uptaded punkbuster???????

Usual suspects for this are bad internet connection (ISP related), punkbuster causing problems (try manually updating punkbuster from the evenbalance website) or problems with CPU affinity on dual/quad core systems, in which case you could try:

CTRL + ALT + DEL
click on processes
right click on bf2.exe
select 'Set Affinity'
deselect whichever core you don't want to use (it doesn't really matter which)

hi monkey , i use an AM2 6000+ dual core m8, would i benefit from just using one core on BF2 and let the other just run all the guff??

update , i guess so tried it earlier and couldnt seem to miss

hmm sounds like the AMD aimbot edition

Have to say, good work on the AM2 6000+ - that would be the same one as my current setup (on a crosshair mobo)

There's a timing problem on some dual cores, have a look here http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=983781
(coincidentally bioshock/crysis shipped with this patch)

Loading everything onto one core would also sort the problem - since a 3ghz single core is more than enough for battlefield.

I've tried running it on one core and for me it doesn't make any difference, bah :s

seems to have worked for me, not in the last game tho lmao( very frantic )

but for some reason untill
i put it on one core i couldnt hit shit with the G36E... which seemed wierd

but hey im a happy bunny once more

cheers
