Alright, so I haven't had any problems playing bf2 for the past year plus. This month, this thing has started where about twice a round, I will get this clientside lag (no increase in ping) where it appears I'm getting about 5 or 10fps. Complete chugging. My computer can definitely handle BF2's requirements. This lag will last for a few minutes (it seems to go away when I minimize for a minute or two them resume gamplay). I'm pretty sure I haven't installed any new programs that are running in the background and are hogging major processor power. I've reinstalled (deleted and redownloaded on steam) several times, and have tried playing it from two different hard drives on my computer.
If you have any experience with this or any vague ideas on how to fix this, I'm all ears. I'm relatively dumb with computers and if I can't come up with any good solutions, I'm gonna reformat.
