Not sure if anyone has seen this problem, but I'm getting a unique issue here.
I installed my CD copy of BF2142 and was getting memory.dll errors when maps would change, and the game would CTD with a memory.dll error.

I reinstalled my game, but I used the EA Link version and now I'm getting a BF2142Pace.exe has stopped working CTD error.

I tried all types of reinstalling and nothing has seemed to work. Any help would be great, it's starting to get annoying now having to restart when a map changes. Although with the BF2142Pace.exe error it usually only crashes on a map change, and the memory.dll error crashed whenever it wanted to.

My current computer specs are:
Windows Vista Home Premium
Asus Striker Extreme (Motherboard)
Creative X-Fi Fatality XtremeGamer
eVGA 8800GTX / eVGA 8800GTX (SLI)
Intel QuadCore Qx6700
2GB Corsair XMS
WD Raptors on Raid (300gb)

Well, I tried all of the things you said but none of them worked oddly.

1. Patch doesn't have anything for Vista.

2. I've installed the nVidia RAID drivers, BF2142 seems to be the only game which has a problem at the moment. Unfortunately when I try to download SATA drivers from Asus for my motherboard, which I forgot to mention is an Asus Striker Extreme, when I try to install the Vista 32 bit drivers, it gives me an error telling me that it's for the wrong Operating System. Also, I haven't seen any memory sanity errors, only a "BF2142Pace.exe has stopped working".

3. I'm doing that right now, and I'm going to restart after this post and the this DX10 SLI hotfix is done installing.

4. I download this hotfix but an error message stops me before it installs telling me "This update does not apply to your system".

5. I looked for this file and it wasn't on my system.

6. I have up to date drivers, and my onboard audio is set to off in the BIOS.

- Thanks for the quick response, will try to figure some more stuff out to see if I can troubleshoot this a bit more.

Hmm.. didn't see number seven, I just did that now. Also, I redownloaded the Vista-32 Hotfix from that link, and it's still telling me "Does not apply with this system".

I'm sure, I purchased the Vista 32Bit OEM System Builders disk. Also, I don't think it says anything about not being the right OS, but maybe the hotfix was already installed in a later Windows Update?

Hmm... not yet, just found a Cult of Personality video. Will be rebooting soon.

Alright, restarted the computer. A new error is occuring though. I used to have the PunkBusterA.exe communication error, but it was fixed with pbsvc.exe. Now, I have the PunkBusterB.exer communication error, and keep on getting kicked from the server, and I've tried pbsvc.exe to try and fix it, but it seems it's still happening.

I recieved this error after Compatability mode was on for Windows XP SP/2.

And I will see if I can find those beta drivers.
