This is only my second post so please dont get on at me if its already somewhere else.  I know there are many threads about problems with the new patch but they dont seem to be having the same problems as me.

Anyway -  to explain.  Downloaded patch no probs at all which is unusual as i usually get quite a few.  All battlefield games and expansion packs working.  Here's the problem - i'll get on servers and play away but not for long.  9/10 times during a round the game comes up 'problem with connection' and freezes before throwing me off the server.  Especially happening in Special Forces.  No msg comes up to say you've been kicked or banned or any thing like that.  Usually when mine crashes it comes up connection lost but it doesnt do this either.  Only been happening since download new patch yesterday - but is ruining my games and i dont want to play anymore incase it crashes. 

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling patch, didnt work.  Tried uninstalling all games and patches and put back on in correct order, still isnt fixed.  The latter has usually fixed my problems before.  I have tried many different servers both on Battlefield 2 and Special Forces and having the same problem.

HELP!
PLEASE!
Thanks in advance to anyone who might reply to this post.

Mine did the same thing twice, but ill experiment more with it later tonight when i get home from work.  The only problem ive noticed so far is that when i click on a server to join it.....the server i clicked on moves around and i have to chase the thing down, i saw someone else with the same problem in another thread.  Kinda aggrivating......

Boris - I dont know how to update either of those.

DecJW - Incremental patch

{BMF}*Frank_The_Tank  - I know what you mean.  It did the jumping around thing the night.  But have managed to get onto bf2 and have a couple of rounds.  Will try Special Forces the morro and see whats happening.

Thanks Again guys

badhq means do you have any dodgy programs or RAM stealing programs on in the background before you start up BF2?

And to update PB goto http://www.punkbuster.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php

-scroll down til you reach pbsetup.exe in the yellow, open it
-click run/open
-click run again
-the once its opened click on add a game
-add BF2 to the list
-click on it in the window and goto check for updates
-then you sohuld be able to figure it out from there
