I assume all the Asus nForce2 users in this thread are using the onboard nVidia NIC? Has anyone tried installing an el-cheapo network card?
/me rushes off to try...
Edit:
Well that didn't help at all, still it was worth a try...

Just a note, I installed the new 5.1 nforce drivers from nvidia and I haven't had the problem all day.

Hope it gets sorted, sounds awful. 
I myself have 3 comps capable of running Eve, the primary one being on an ASUS mobo (not a nForce2) with a GeforceFX6900.
None experience what you're describing.

From what people are saying it does seem to be something to do with client compatability with the nForce2 chipset. Network issues seem unlikely since a lot off information still seems to be getting through to the server as normal. Tracking down the cause is probably going to be a nightmare since nobody seems to have noticed any correlation in events in game leading up to the problem occuring so far. Neither has anybody suggested a link between either how long the client has been running or how long their macine has been running. For my part neither seems related.

I've just been reminded by Lallante's post http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=111942 that deployed drones appear to scatter when the "lag" hits. I don't recall that being mentioned anywhere else here so far. They jump out what would appear to be several km and then slowly move back into normal orbit around your ship. I've never seen this happen while I've had drones away from my ship that I can remember.

I dont have this problem and I have a similar comp :
- Windows XP pro but I havent installed sp2 yet
- Motherboard: Asus A7N8X-X
- BIOS: Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG
- Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2800+, ~2.1GHz
- Memory: 512MB RAM
- DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)
- Card name: NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4200 128.0 MB
- Current Mode: 1024 x 768 (32 bit) (60Hz)
- Driver Name: nv4_disp.dll
Driver Version: 6.14.0010.6177 (English)
- Sound Devices: SB Live! Audio [D000]
- Driver Version: 5.12.0001.0252 (English)
I also use the MB NIC. I can't remember if I ever installed the CD that came with the board though, I might of skiped that. I play the game in window mode and alt tab often to other stuff. I play from a SNC router, the other comp on it doesn't have EVE. I can't think of anything else I can add that might help for now but Ill let you know if i do.
I hope you guys find your answers.
EDIT: I might add that my Asus board was bought recently ( 1-2 month ?)

Seeing that DC installed 5.1 nforce drivers and havent had a problem after that, there might be the answer. Apparently that certain type of ASUS mobo with older nforce drivers doesnt match together with Eve?
oh btw, there's 1.08(bios) for A7N8X available, if any1 is interested.

From my personal experience:
I did get 'the shivers'with:
-geforce 2 gts - about every second day at least
-radeon 9700 pro - like 2 times a year - only following a special patch
-radeon x800pro - not yet, performs like a charm
Hope this helps a bit, but as I have always changed my complete rig with every grafixboard, this proves exactly nothing. But I know this bug to be very annoying, as I had always the fear of loosing my ship. This bug would always hit me in a belt, with loads of drones, often with spawns nearby...

I haven't read every single post in this thread, but suffice to say, I do have the same problem. And I also run an Asus A7N8X motherboard (although I'm not entirely convinced its due to that).
What I do notice is that when I experience this issue, the system clock is usually way out of whack with reality... and Eve does not seem to take too kindly to a system clock that varies more than a minute or so from the server clock. This, however, is just speculation.

Another issue I have is being AFK. If I am AFK either docked or in space for longer than about 20 minutes I come back to the exact same bug. It's very frustrating.
I'm currently installing a different motherboard into my second machine and will post the results.

Someone mentioned that changing the time on your computer could cause problems. Something with your pc and the serv's getting out of sync.
So if your computer is auto adjusting your clock via windowstime (service on at least XP) that could be the problem.
I run w2k and use a small program called d4time, that updates the clock at login and not any other time. And the only time I experince this kind of lag is when there is a hardware problem on the dsl line.

No way they use a real time clock for synchronising with server , much to unreliable:)
There is atechinque called logic clocks in informatics , they prolly use something like this.
Anyway i got to nforce 2 mobo, asus a7n8x deluxe , athlon xp 2000+ and GF4 ti 4200 128 mb, Adsl 640/128.
I get this bug really seldom now like once every 2 month or even less.Used to have it sometimes before, after problem patches.
