[Son1990]

Ok, well no OC on my rig at the moment and well, I get to the startup screen to choose my army and kit and the mouse pointer just freezes nothing I can do. any ideas?

 

[Son1990]

Anyone!?!

 

[Feydd]

....have you installed all the patches?

 

[Son1990]

What is the latest path out? I played 2 nights ago with no problom.

 

[Feydd]

1.3 i think

 

[mils128]

the newest patch is 1.03 but, a new patch is going to be out tommorow, in light of the release of EA Special Forces Mod.

 

[Son1990]

ok well lets hope that works. any links to where i can DL one?

 

[SinsFeelNatural]

The new update is only for unranked servers.

 

[Son1990]

Well nothing is helping.

 

[SinsFeelNatural]

uninstall, delete registry keys restart and reinstall.

 

[Son1990]

How do i delete registry keys?

 

[Janus67]

use regedit. do a search in regedit for battlefield 2, DICE, and ea games. look through and delete any keys relevant to battlefield2.

 

[Son1990]

Thank you. Im going to go see if this works

 

[Son1990]

Reformat

You reformat weekly?

I think I reformat too much as it is, planning a new one to repartition hard drives for more functionality, feasablity. I get sick of the activation each time, although if you do it enough, you never have to activate.

Actually you only have to activate it once for each hardware configuration, just save the activation file from before and then write over the file after install.

I actually had a lot more problems with BF2 after the 1.03 patch. The server menu would lock up a lot while updating. Seemed it only happened to me compared to other friends with the game. If it didn't freeze (rarely) it was amazingly fast. Game always seemed a little glichy, even without OC.

 

[Janus67]

that and more than half of the filters don't work.

 

[mils128]

There is a new CLIENT patch out for Ranked and Unranked, 1.12,

 

[Son1990]

Ill prob DL 1.12 and yes I reformat weekly. Benchmark scores tend to be more accurate on a system with only drivers and the benchmark programs installed. I have everything on my backup HD so its easy.
