You need to installed the add on BF2142: Northern strike. (90% online servers require this as an up date) You can pick it up for £6 or download it from the BF2142 website. that will give you all the updates but there are updates for Northern strike. when you install it you will also install a program called EA Link this will automatically download the new updates for you. hope this helps.

wycherley are you 100% sure that you need northern strike expansion to play on non- NS servers? i dont believe that!
Amd gt player what id recommend you to do is download "EA link" ( just google it and read what it is to save me typing an essay) but basically it makes getting updates(and any future updates) much easier because you dont have to search the net for them.
The newest patch that you will need to play on all servers is the 1.25 patch, you DO NOT need any other patches, just the lastest one should get you up to date and playing hastle free.
I really dont think you need the northern strike expansion myself but if you install the newest patch and find that theres not many servers then maybe you will need it but id be surprised if you do need it to play on non NS servers.
Let us know how you get on, any other questions feel free to ask as i have both 2142 and the expansion pack

my friend has a MSI 7900GT and he said he uses forceware version 93.71, he hasnt had any problems with those, also there was some new forceware released a few days ago which is 94.24, im using those currantly and ive got no problems with my 7950GT, however my friend with the 7900GT has a few glitches in games, so might be worth you trying 93.71, which are slightly older but havent got any issues.
Sorry if you have already tried them.
