I returned from vacation and found my brand new Viewsonic VX2025WM waiting for me. I plugged it in, went to fire my PC and... nothing.

So, I figured it was my power supply. (Antec True Power 450W) I bought a OCZ Powerstream 600W from Tigerdirect for $89.99 after MIR. Put that in and everything works fine. EXCEPT - Battlefield 2.

Anyways, I've been having trouble getting in and playing. One of three things happens.

a) It lags hardcore when entering a server, however 5 mins later it seems fine.
b) It goes to the map splash screen but doesn't show the gun selection but goes back to the server list with a popup - "Connection to Server Lost"
c) It seems okay, little lag then all of a suden it crashes to my desktop.

Anyways, here's my stats if this helps.
AMD 64 3800+
OCZ EL Gold 2x512
eVGA 6800GS
60GB HD for Windows
250 GB Hd for games, music, videos
Audigy 2

My desktop resolution is 1680x1050, only background programs i had running were AIM and Xfire.
BF2 settings are 800x600 medium high or 1024x768 medium


I'm going to try a reformat / reinstall because I'm having issues with my digital camera as well. We'll see if that helps. No video drivers or anything were changed. This was on BF2 1.3 and I've tried multiple servers.

Thanks for any help.

Mine does the same thing except it neverlags when joining. I'll either get the ''connection lost'' thing after loading or i'll be playing fine and it will out of nowhere crash to desktop.

Puter:
Asus A8n-sli premium
AMD 3500+
XFX 7900GT
Corsair XMS twinx 2x1gb
160gb for windows, games, etc
160gb for music, backup files, setup files, etc
onboard sound :-x (audigy died)

Desktop is 1280x1024

All settings in BF2 are max, with resolution at 1600x1280 or w/e it is

Not running any background programs

I'm thinking about reformatting so I can RAID 0 my 2 sata 3.0 160gb hdds, but I dont think that will help the problem. I'm sick of doing good then crashing
