Damage it happens to me everyday, i am running win7 64 bit, it usually happens when maps change over but unlike Jimmy i am able to get straight back in the game i just have to reset my graphics, that's why you might see me disappear at the end of some maps for a couple of minutes before reconnecting (no no it's not to set my hacks up) why i suggested a reinstall after sound driver update is because i have had the same problem Jimmy had ie not being able to play cod at all and that solution always works for me, the current problem i am getting now never seems to happen in ftag2 though, maybe it has something to do with the server having all stock maps.
