Hi guys, I've installed BF2 and now when I select the game it starts with the BF2 logo and when it loads a bit it suddenly crashes to my desktop again. Any suggestions what to do?

Are you all patched up?

Hard drive defragged,de-crapped etc?

What graphics card are you running Duvel?

Complete fresh install of XP and all it's patches.
Card: MEDION RADEON 9600 TX

Do I have to download the patches myself?

Allright, so first I have to install the patch, got it...
Edit: Thought it was: First get the game going then it'll autopatch as Steam...

9Slice had slightly similar problems at the LAN...

Tea Leaf suggested that it was his Windows Firewall causing the problem and sure enough, after adjustment, BF2 loaded properly.

I am afraid - being a Mac person - I don't know how the Windows Firewall must be adjusted to accomodate BF2, but I would guess it would mean openning some ports which BF2 uses.

Make sure your card/monitor can allow 800x600 @60Hz to run. Reason being is that BF2 must start at this res/refresh rate the first time it starts.

eg make sure you are not using any refresh force software when you start it the first time :)

There are 3 patches. I doubt not having them installed would cause the crashing, just unable to connect to servers

I reinstalled BF2,
Now downloading all the patches.
Allready set my monitor and so on 800x600.
I'm also allready downloading CounterStrike: Condition zero, will let that finish first before installing all the patches and so.
WindowsFirewall is down aswell.

I hope it'll work out... :dummy:

Make sure nothing is overclocked and that memory settings are allocated in BIOS using SPD. Additionally, if your graphics card uses a 4pin molex power connector in addition to the power from the AGP slot then make sure nothing else is using the same power rail.

Can you run 3D mark OK or any other games for that matter?

 :huh: Remember, I'm not a computertechy  ;)
I didn't overclock a thing. I've tryed a game of CS:CZ and it worked fine.
Now I'm off searching for that 3D mark thing.

I've posted this also on the |TG|forum and got a reply that it could be my drivers...
I'm allready checking This site for them
