Happens in any game I play, although it seems to happen with more frequency in BF2. Drivers for the Graphics card are up to date. Relatively new mobo and memory, brand new P4 3 prescott.The two things that has changed within the last month are proc and windows updates. Just got current with updates and the problems seemed to have started since then. Anyone hear of problems caused by latest patches? It acts like a memory problem but I've been affraid to test it.. I JUST replaced mobo and ram in this thing about 9mos ago. Anyway... any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

system
P4 3 gig prescott
ABIT mobo (post model when I get home if needed)
Saphire ATI 9600XT
1 gig corsair XMS
WD Caviar sata HDD 120 gb
WD Caviar IDE HDD 120 gb (sata converter)
RAID 0
Plextor 708A DVD burner
Sony DVD rom drive (model?)

Take your hard drives out of raid format and reformat. Reinstall the OS on the SATA drive.

Giving you the best advice I can. Running a drive through a ide / sata adaptor will not be stable when running 2 drives in Raid 0.
