Yesterday I had multiple disconnects, crashes, lockups entering the game and etc. While I was going to blame it on the heat, its still happened this morning when all was cold.
Anyways I went thru and installed the latest drivers for everything. Blasted all the dust out of the case, checked fans were spinning. Still an issue. Then I headed over to evenbalance.com and see that the day before my problems, a new version of PB was released.
Just a heads up incase others are having connecting to server issues that started yesterday. I've submitting a trouble ticket as I have no problem connecting to non-PB servers.
Next time I'll start troubleshooting with connecting to a non-PB server and see if that helps.

I had probs on Tuesday. Played the first hour or so no problem, then my system kept locking up and freezing, after multi-ple reboots and retries I gave up. Tried another server same issue, however single player and other games worked fine

I'll have to try again and see what happens.

I had downloaded their latest pb update software and it download something for BF2 PB. Life seems better but still not perfect.

Maybe this is the same problem im having. I tried playing on Tuesday but BF2 would freeze up for a second then crawl to like 2 fps. Single players works fine as long as the issue hasn't happened yet after a restart. It seems to slow my whole computer down though. I went to play Counter-Strike after BF2 crapped out on me and CS had the same problem, and my ping was over 100ms then it should be. At the time of the first problem i had changed nothing on my computer. I reinstalled BF2 during the NABO and still had the same problem. Since then i've got new video card and BIOS drivers. Played a short game and seemed to work fine but not long enough to confirm nothing was wrong.

download, install, run, and choose BF2.
It downloaded some new file (not sure what), which helped me.
I traced a power off problem to a failed UPS (hopefully just a bad battery).
Now hopefully my problems will be just normal EA/Dice QC.

I updated every driver i was behind on and downloaded the punkbuster stuff and everything seems to be fine now.

I would have guessed PB issues right off. It always seems to be high on the list when dealing with logon problems.
