    KB940105 Vista x86/x64 Hotfix for memory management

    I posted this in the "Hardware and Software Discussion" sub forum, but I'm reposting it here too because I know how many people are having severe crashing issues in vista with 2142 and bf2.

    __________________

    Microsoft has released a hotfix which addresses memory management for vista x86 and x64. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940105

    Currently it's available by request only and can be requested by using this on line form, https://support.microsoft.com/contac...1410&WS=hotfix

    Anand tech has a brief article discussing the hotfix, http://www.anandtech.com/systems/showdoc.aspx?i=3060.

    It's supposed to fix issues such as the BF2 and 2142 memory crashes. I requested them last night and installed on my notebook/desktop today, but haven't had time to test yet.

    I have installed this update on my Vista 32 bit, but with no effect, my BF2 games still crashes.
