I've had random crashes with Vista, used to have the memory.dll crash on 64bit. Now, I just crash randomly. I do get lag at the beginning of the round and intermittently during the game.
I set up my rig to run with a second monitor. On the second monitor I've run "resource monitor" and "task manager" When I run "Task Manager" and "processes" BF2 runs at about 50-60 under CPU. "Memory (Private Working Set) starts at about 150 MB, then steadily increases until it hits just over 850 MB then the crash.
My question is, should BF2.exe be taking up 850 MB of memory? Am I looking at the right one? I don't know what the normal is and I know that Vista is a MEMORY user (everything in memory) but I'm thinking if I can work around this (assuming this is an issue) I should be able to play fine.
From time to time, when the crash occurs, I can still hear TS conversations, but it locks up. At other times, it CTD. Also, I'm not doing anything like flying, or running around a lot of people, this has happened while commanding.
Thanks in advance for your support.
