Make sure F@H (F@H) is off.
Retry then.

just a guess ... but does bf2142 have the same resolution/frequency setting problem that bf1942 and bf2 had? videocon.con file setting or something? Though that usually just blackscreens and jumps back to windows.

Ive just re-installed BF2 today, and had exactly the same problem as Spiritus. Turning off fixed F@H it right up, thanks allot Duvel! :thumbsup2: Played for a while with GM, twas great fun. So if you guys are ever interested, I don't mind being shot at. BTW, how/why did F@H keep minimizing the game and then completely ruin the textures in the game menu?

Sorry dude, I don't know why it minimizes.
I only know F@H (F@H) is the problem.
It probably has something to do with F@H (F@H) using the memory that you don't use or such.
 
BTW, type your name in the other thread about BF2142 names and the rest.
