The arenas have been rather flakey of late,espicially LW Blue.I have had a freeze up where I lose my joystick and sound just stays the same.I have to punch out to get out of freeze.My question is this,am I getting disco'd or is it a problem I have?I think I've had five disco's,and I have only had one or two where I get the message...lost host connection.I get the message when I first log into arenas et al LW Blue.I'm beggining to believe that it isn't me,just disco's,but beings I just got two evga's going in SLI config,and the fps in AH is way weird..as in high,I thought it could be me.I hate things like this.

I get a fair number of Host Connection Lost trying to go into blue. After a while when the numbers start dropping (I can only assume others are having trouble) I can get in.

Not sure what's up with that, other than a Rook/Bish conspiracy to keep Knights out, but that's fine. Excellent perk multipliers to be had in LW Blue.

Well I guess it's me the game don't like.Just came back from arena,got froze up in LW Orange,sitting in hanger.Tried to enter LW Blue,got froze up with a non spinning version of the clip board thingy.Finally got into LW Blue,checked my disco's on the roster board.It had remained at five,so it's my problem.O.K. the last thing I changed was adding another vid card for SLI,so I would guess thats where to start looking.Thanks for help Puck:)

Irondog- I think I am experiencing the same problem as you. Randomly the game will just freeze, and whatever sound is around me will just keep repeating itself. It locks up my entire computer, and I end up having to restart to get er going again. Please let me know if you come up with any solutions

I will let you know how I make out Cav.So far I have reran the AMD dual core patch and another patch from AMD for the drivers.I changed my vid card settings to my personal settings,and that is for quality.In AH vid settings,I use 1072 and I force vsync on,and run 60 fps.I read a thread where one fella swears that running on 60 fps is the absolute cause of his crashes!I was able to fly a couple of hops last night in LW Orange and had no probs.
