We were hacked. Several times over the past two weeks, in fact.

I get that same "lag" on Daqing: I'll be flying around normally when, for no obvious reason, the game will simply freeze up for three seconds and, naturally, greet me back with a smoking chopper on the ground. It doesn't do it on any other map so I know it's something related to the actual file... but meh, I've been too lazy to copy over it.
I have been taking more the pilots seat in attack choppers for practice... It sure is not as fun and rewarding as gunner (especially when you have a mentally handicapped gunner), but still enjoyable.
Some problems I am facing though, include sudden lag (connection problems) for 1-2 seconds or more, causing me to crash, what is very annoying as the gunner will call me a noob (and I don't even know what happened!).
The other is a mysterious minimize to desktop thing, what is worse since it takes more time to restore... I am playing, and all of a sudden BF2 minimizes itself, for no reason. It is probably not spyware or virus as I scan often and it doesn't pop anything up...
Any fixes / ideas?
Thanks
Try this buddy, Start the game, go to Option , Audio, and switch from Software to Hardware.Join a server and check the difference, let me know if it worked. That actually solved my lag issues ... and connection problems...
And for the minimizing issues, it`s not spyware nor a virus, but it`s probably a program running in the background, antivurus or something like that. I used to use BitDefender PRO and whenever it was upgrading itself, couple of times a day, it would minimize the game, got something else since and no more problems ...
I've had minimizing problems just recently too... And no it's not because of other programs running in the background (I shut them all down before playing).

There`s no reason the game would minimize itself unless you pushed the Windows key on your keyboard, which happens to me too from time to time...
P.S.: So you turn off the antivirus and firewall too when you play games?!? WOW, Talk about wondering where the viruses came from ....:shock: :shock:
I used to lag really bad only on OCS but I upgraded to 2 gigs and it runs really smooth now, i do get some lag on some maps from time to time, never had the minimize to desktop problem
