Greetings,

Well, the 1.4 patch seems to be a little more stable for me as far as I don't get the crash to desktop anymore, but I do still get the occasional server disconnect, however it only seems to happen when I'm playing long games.

I might play on a server where I have a lot of short games, and no hassles. If I get on a server where the game goes for, say 40minutes or so, it will always have a disconnect problem towards the end of the game.

The server is still running as other guys in my clan are still playing, and I can reconnect and continue without losing my place/score.

To me it seems like a memory leak type problem. Short games effectively "reset" after each round before the problem becomes an issue, but longer games seem to suffer more.

If this an observation anyone else has noticed? I might run a sysmon in the background next time watching my resources and see what happens.

I have the same problem and it usually happens when I am commanding and winning.  Go figure.

I get these all the freakin time since 1.4

Usually when i'm top of the server in points by a large margin towards the end of the game.  Then when i get back i'm 4th-5th and the game ends...

I don't know what the problem with my machine is.  All i can say is that 1.3 this was not an issue, and i haven't changed any hardware or network equiptment since i installed 1.4.

Never happened to me as far as I'm aware and I've been playing longish rounds a fair bit recently (working on 100+ rounds to get that last bit to 60k faster). I've only had a few CTDs and maybe two server crashes since patching up but no crashes mid-game without an apparent reason.

I had crashes all the time with the 1.3 patch, but those have pretty well gone now.

This happens to me EVERY time now. The games I'm talking about tend to be 120+ point rounds, and I haven't had a CTD since the 1.4 patch, but these disconnects are starting to really annoy me.

If I play hours of short games it never happens, if I play a couple of long games, it will happen each round usually after around 40 minutes or so.

I ran a perfmon monitor last night recording various memory variables but nothing obvious. I'll just have to try adding more counters and see if anything shows at all...

I use to lose connection after a few rounds and only a system reboot cured the problem.

I finally resolved the problem by applying the AMD dual core patch.

I know it does not work for everyone but is you have a dual core CPU its worth a try...

Intel C2D doesn't need a patch, YES!

No, I don't have dual cores

But it simply discoinnects from the game. I can just reconnect to the server and keep playing again no problems. It's not based on how long I've been playing for, or how many rounds, it is always just from the length of a single round...

this happens in 9/10 rounds I play WTF?! I hate this. If this happens in BF2142 I'm gonna have to slap a bitch.
