I run a 700 Athlon w/ 765Mb Ram, a stealth III video card and a 30Gb hd.
I keep getting booted repeatedly, sometimes from the tower, sometimes in flight. Last Saturday, I got booted 25 times in 15 minutes. That makes for a frustrating weekend. Any ideas that may help me?

Defind "booted".  Is the program crashing to desktop, or are you getting "host connection lost" or something?

What version of Direct X are you using?  If you don't have version 8, get it.  Before you install DX8, you should ensure you have the latest drivers for your video and sound cards, drivers that support DX8.

Are you running Roger Wilco?  If you are, remove it until your problems are gone.  You can also try setting RW to use wav recording instead of direct sound, sometimes that helps.
