When i connect to a server. Join in spawn, it kinda like loads it jitters a little as i look around. But as I play a round it stops. Am i the only one who gets this? Is it my computer? My computers brand new. If you want my specs.. tell me how to get them and ill show you them And maps like Operation road rage, It will freeze my computer. Also happends on oman sometimes and mashtuur. Is this an all around problem?

At the start of the round my PC lags a bit as it loads every thing but thats all unless I'm using 99% of my ram. 

To view detailed information about your PC:

Start > Run
Type dxdiag
Select no if prompted for driver signing or something similar

Or

Right click on My Computer icon on the desktop
Select Properties

how much ram do you have?  this might tell me if its your PC maxing out.

Well I had that problem too... but don't take my advice how to fix it...

1st -> uninstall BF2
2nd -> restar PC
3rd -> install BF2
4th -> install SF
5th -> install patch 1.3 "Full not Incramental"
6th -> retrieve your account
7th -> try it out A.S.A.P

But this is what I did to fix my problem.

Yeah,  I have  a 1 gig of ram and if i have winamp & other background applications open it causes my bf2 to lag a bit as it is at 99% usage, you can try lowering your graphics and shutting down other applications.  that may help.  but it will lag for 30 seconds or so at the start.

thats a weird case of lag, to me it sounds like PC lag, what are your graphics set at?

It happens to anyone who has less than 1.5gb of RAM. Computer has to swap everything else besides current Battlefield map/game data out of RAM when the map loads, 'cos you physically only just have enough RAM to put it all in. Swapping is a slow process ('cos it uses the harddrive), so you get the jerks.

With 2gb of RAM you will never see this problem, unless you have a whole lot of crap running in the background eating all your RAM.

You can minimise the problem by disabling the startup movies, the menu-background movie, and making sure any memory intensive process is properly closed before you start playing.

Thats what i was going to suggest, to do that do the following:
CTRL + ALT + DEL to open the task manager

from there if you click on the user tab it will list all the procceses

Processes with your username can be close execpt explorer.exe and taskmanager.exe

This will free up alot of RAM for bf2 which will as above stop the jerkyness of the program.  so give that a try and see if it works.

Also if you have a g15 keboard close all the LCD apps to sav 100 + RAM
