Is your hard drive making a noise and is the light flashing every one of the little frames you see the other charatcers move? happened to me before.

Does this happen in single player?

Memory = RAM. RAM + ~2 years = FAIL. RAM + FAIL = NEW RAM.
That's my semi-foolproof RAM equation. Use at your own risk.

Bungie doesn't see gamers any more. They see walking credit cards.

That's lag buddy.

Urg what I meant was whether you had dual core.

Well anyway, assuming you do:
1.start up game
2.ctrl-alt-del to task manager
3.right click on halo, set affinity
4.Turn off core 1, so it only uses core 0

The problem you're describing sounds 100% like what I get occasionally, and the above always fixes it.

well if you're sure you don't have a dual core CPU then your BIOS might be set to split your processor into 2 logical processors. that's what i have mine set to do but it works fine with me. having it split into 2 logical processors makes some things run a lot faster and other things get really sluggish and laggy.

It resets each time you restart your comp, so if the problem appears again, just turn off one core again.
