VOX transmission lockups

Also, when trying to exit from a vehicle, or a plane on the runway, and someone is transmitting on range, the game will hang and the last few words will loop repeatedly. This also happens when I try to exit the game in the same situation.

This is the type of hang ups that we are talking about.  The one that gets caught in the repeating vox transmission.

The other pauses and studders that you mention sound like connection/performance issues with your connection/comp.

Today was lock-up hell.  This is the first time in my year's worth of AH2 that it's been this bad.  Twice today I was in buffs.  The first time it happened, I was landing my last remaining KI-67 with three kills when my comp completely froze 50 yd. short of the runway.  The second time, I had B17's leveled off at 20k, and I went afk for a bit.  Came back to find it locked up.  Both times I had to completely reboot the system.  I have also found, vox or no vox, that I get massive skips and freezes whenever I approach a heavily populated field, much worse than ever before since this version/patch was installed.
As far as game peripherals are concerned, I use a Thrustmaster Fox2 Pro stick, and keyboard for everything else.
My video card is an ATI 9800.  I will have to ask my brother on the specs of my machine since he built it.

PLEASE forgive the double posting of this info, but i think it is very relevant here

its a new bug that used to happen with earlier 2.x builds but totally disappeared in 2.04x Now its back with a vengeance!

stutters and freezes horribly... before anyone jumps in and says it is my system, here are my specs:

My system smokes on every other game!

athlon64 3700+ socket 939
2 GB DDR 3200 Dual channel
256 MB Geforce 6800 Ultra
on a 74GB SATA 10,000 RPM Western Digital Raptor HDD

For Internet connectivity I am with Comcast on an 8 megabit down/ 1 megabit up plan!!!

I cleared my AH cache and skins, changed from 1024 to 512 textures, even deleted my WINDOWS pagefile.

I even went as far as wiping out my HD and reinstalling windows xp SP2 and AH 2.05.1 from scratch! No way in hell it is my system!

I will say ONE positive thing about this build, my frame rates are astronomical, even down low in the thickest furball (as they should be with this system)

I am running 1280 x 1024 res full eye candy. My DX diag turned out great and I am getting around 90,000 sometimes more on aquamark

The stutters caused me to lose a 262 (doesnt everyone say that???) but in this case it was true... long stutter, i come back no wings! shirtly thereafter, doom, in his own 262 also collided with me but continued flying!

Need more info, just ask

Using CH HOTAS F-16 fighterstick, Pro Throttle, Pro Pedals

*** I have this problem even if no-one is on vox and when viewing straight ahead too ***
