Loading - please wait...

Hi guys!

A have a little problem with Battlefield 1942 since yesterday: When one round ends (you see top 3 and final scores etc...) a message appears, saying "Loading - please wait...". I guess everyone sees that before next map is loaded. But sometimes (more or less every third map) the message just won't disappear and I could wait forever. The only way for me to continue playing is to disconnect and to join again. As you can imagine, that sucks...

As I already said, this is new to me - not like those errors that use to happen due to vista sometimes. So I'm not quite sure whether the server might be responsible for that (e.g. no response). Does anyone have an idea?

I'm not sure what type of Internet service you have.
My DSL has done the same thing until i upgraded my service.
Also check your CD and make sure it is clean and not scratched too much.

It looks like a lost connection as the server is telling your computer which game to load is sending your computer in a rout. When that happens, have you tried going in the task manager to see if it says that the application is not responding.

My BF2142 sometimes goes chasing after its tail and I have to terminate the game and launch it again.

Connection is running fine and CD is ok, I'm quite sure those are not the reasons.

This sounds pretty sensible since the game is waiting for the server to tell him which map is next. But I can still leave the session and return to the main menu, so the application is obviously responding. What annoyes me most is that this error (like the ones I had before) occurs absolutely random. At least the game doesn't crash completely, I just have to rejoin...

Thanks for the ideas anyway.
