Run a RAM test. Try memtest86 or something like that.

Do you have antivirus? Have you tried disabling that? Run Spyware scans? Done all the usual stuff?

Ok, (T)eflon(S)hadow i didnt understand what u mean in the post.......

so now i ran memtest86 for 2 completely pass and everything is ok; my game is still bugging even if i close
my antivirus and firewall.......  and i ran spyboth and spyware blaster just to see if i was infect by something but everything is ok.

Hy Qc.Q2,

I have exactly the same problem of "You lost your connection" and this since patch1.4.
My cfg is quitly the same as you :
AMD ATHLON 2800+
moBo = ASUS A7V8X-X
GF 5900 FX - 128Mb
DDR RAM 1024

I have tried a lot of things since 1 month, but one not yet :
Delete or rename your BF2 file into "your documents" and retrieve your account.
You need to put your settings back.
Try this link too :http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=22556

I think that the main problem is the configuration : graphic card and proc !
The patch 1.4 need more requirements, maybe !
1 month I don't play : sniff

Peace
Roomba

Qc.Q2:

I am having the same problem as you. I have a Asus A7N8x board, Athlon 2600 XP+ with a Radeon 9600xt 256MB, 1GB Corsair mem (2X512). Until the 1.4 patch I had great luck with my meager rig. Now, I can't even stay connected for more than 5 seconds!  I have been trying to determine my problem. I thought it was spyware, but that might not have been all. My spyware related problems occurred with an update that included some Java thing.  I'm sure that's not good but I have that under control.  I've tried uninstall/reinstall and  removing my profile. I can't figure this one out. It looks like it is my computer and something is blocking or clogging the transfer for the game. I have not updated the drivers for the board or the video card yet. I have been trying to avoid that. As an added bonus, I have been unable to uninstall other games or play them. Something is definitely wrong. I have also tried to diagnose the lag by using lagmeter. The game lag comes from the 'client' which I think is my computer.  Here's the website:

http://www.endlagnow.org/ELN/TakeAction_LagMeter.aspx

I have been toying with the idea of installing Windows on another harddrive to see if the problem is on my harddrive. I guess if that fails, it must be hardware related.

Let me know if you see anything else. Check some of the other threads with my name. There are some good tips that may help you. Best of luck!

First, thank you for the tips (T)eflon(S)hadow, but this Verizon FiOS ftw service in not available in Canada......

by the way i've already deleted my BF2 documents files and try the new profile and yes i had to set back all

my settings and controls game but it didn't change anything........  i tried  4 different graphic drivers and 

it still didn't change nothing;

Roomba , i have already reformat 1 time 4 month ago and in my case, did nothing..... i will work a bit with

lag meter and all give news about that; 


But yesterday i got nuts lollllllll   and i call my internet compagny witch is Videotron, and they came home and

checked speed and stability and also all wires and everything was perfectly ok and very fast but he changed

my modem even if it was looking ok and BELEIVE ME guys, it's been 2 days now that i play and i didn't  have

any problem......  ALL TOUCH WOOD !!!!!!!   lolll

All will give u all news anyway because maybe i just got lucky and spoke too fast !!!!!!!

Fellas,

I have been debating to call my ISP provider. Like I've said, they did some work not too long ago.  I don't know if they did something different. I have already bought a new router. I may have to get the modem as well (AAARRRGGGGHH!). There is SO much other computer stuff I would rather buy than that.

Mav, still having problems, too huh? I am getting desperate enough to try a reformat. I have heard that still may not fix it.

Hi Roomba,

as soons as I update to apcth 1.4  :CRABOOM - " you lost your connection ".

I thank you. I was wrestling with the idea of a complete reformat. You may have saved me the headache.

It seems this problems is related to the 1.4 patch or PB/1.4. It could be my ISP. Still not 100%. Sad thing is, I played last night for 30-45 minutes once it got through 1 or 2 heavy spikes. This may have something to do with the tolerance of the server towards high ping spikes.

Time for a dumb question: What is zone alarm? Is that a software firewall? I appreciate your input.

Have you seen anything official or unofficial from EA?

Good luck.

To all,

My connection problems were related to my cable modem. I had it replaced and viola! I played for an hour or so last night. Minor hiccups when the map loaded but that was there before.  It was a 44 player (?) map and it was loaded with people. It was good to be back.

So if you have tried everything else, call your ISP. I will let you know if I have any problems.
