I got this game a month ago, and it worked perfectly fine. Loading times were < 2-3 minutes. As of three days ago, however, those load times have nearly quintipled. Now they take 10-15 minutes. It's mostly the Verifying Client Data part (the actual loading takes about two mintues, the verifying part takes like 10 minutes). I know this is where Punkbuster scans all my files. Well, I haven't altered ANY of my files (with the exception of renaming my .exe file, as I heard that that helps load issues...but I did that in response to my problem). When I actually get into the server (sometimes I get conenction lost), I ping normally ( <50 in US servers) and I still get teh same, constant FPS. I run the game on all medium settings, @ 1024 x 768. I've tried reducing the graphics all to low, but that didn't help.
I have an AMD Athlon 64 3200+, ATi Radeon x700 AGP, and a gig of RAM. I've rebooted, reinstalled (twice), repatched, defragged, run anti-spyware/virus software, I've tried fixes laid out in a topic here and on Totalbf2.com, but NOTHING has worked. My load times are still the same. Anything else I should try? Help is greatly appreciated and thanks.
