Oh hai,

I'm having a problem currently. After loading a map, I have no framedrop but after 3 minutes it starts lagging every ~5 seconds. After that 10 minutes it goes back to normal, and it works great. I've been having this problem since I installed it on Vista. Usualy, on XP, I was able to play directly. Also on previous Vista instalations, it was working fine.

So, how can I solve this? When I change my BF2's exe to BF21.exe, I get an error with 'please update your Direct X so you have above version 9' But my Direct X version is just fine. Also, I have tried it without virusscanner, but I still get it. Spyware is also gone.

Reinstalling didn't work, so what should I do? Should I make BF2 a high performance task? Also, I don't have any intro movies or something and my memory doesn't reach its limit when BF2 is running.

My pc: AMD X2 4400+ with 2GB and an Ati X1900. With a load of 160GB sata harddisks.

I have similar specs to you and get a noticable drop in framerate when the PB scan is running (I know because the hard drive is chugging)...if you have a few HDDs hooked up maybe that would explain it?

Don't shoot me just a suggestion

Instead of every 10 seconds, make punk buster scan your computer every 5 minutes... theres a post on here somewhere that explains how to do it.

Step 1: Ok, the first step is very simple, join any BF2 online server which is running punkbuster, preferably a ranked one.

Step 2: Once you are in, and respawned somewhere, press the ` key. This key is located on most keyboards above the tab key and to the left of the 1 key

Step 3: Once you have pressed this, a large white box should drop down with a load of text in it. Type "pb_sleep 500" (without the quotation marks) and hit the enter key

Step 4: Once you have done this, make sure the box is still up and type pb_writecfg to save your settings

Already did that one, that's a basic tweak I do after every install.

This is about the only thing I have never tweaked... Does this save the profile, like permanently, so you only need to do this once? Or every time you load BF2? Thanks in advance.

I have the exact same problem as you and I'm running a C2D E6600, 2GBs DDR2 and a 8800GT.
