[DDsO.Freakadunse]

Hey Guys!
My Clanmate has Vista and a big problem.
When the server loads the next map after the round, he sometimes get kicked.
So he has to restart the Game and join again.
But sometimes hes still not able to join the server or to load the map.
When PR finished loading the Map, he get kicked.
Do you know, how to fix it ?

Sorry, cause my english isnt very well.

PS sounds like your friend is running out of ram?

Running out of memory

AncientMan;913997']The most common cause of this is that you are running out of memory.
BF2 was a memory intensive game, and PR only increases on that.

First, you can try lowering your video settings, in particular, Textures. If that doesn't help or fix your issue,
you can try increasing your virtual memory. Information on how to do this is located in the red stickys
See Help Guide for Lag / Stuttering caused by memory

The largeaddressaware fix is not needed any more,1.5 patch allows BF2/PR to use more than 2 gigs of ram

So for Vista he can:
Increase virtual memory
defrag HD + keep at least 15% free on system drive
Add ram
Add fast flash USB thumb drive ( for Vistas 'ready boost')
Add video card with more video ram(1gig+)


Good luck
