    What CPU? If it's a AMDx2 939 you'll need the patch, not sure if you need it for their new ones.

            You never need to change any application to anything except normal on your client machine.

            If your running a server you might need to set TF2 and a few others affinities but never need to change their priorities unless your compressing something and want to work while it's compressing and it's taking up all of your system resources or if it's not compressing fast enough then you can increase it's priority.

            Start your computer in safe mode an launch the game, you should get an error telling you can't play it in safe mode. While this error message appears go into your task manager and attempt to change the priority back to normal.

                type into run "msconfig"

                Go to the "boot" tab

                Tick "safe boot" (minimal)

                Restart


                To turn off safe mode, load up and then untick the "safe boot" box and restart.

                  ok i done the safe mode part but when i attempt to change the game priority it's already back to normal by itself, like when i change a game's priority to low and re-open the game again, it will go back to normal by default

                          Try reinstalling the game, this should erase any settings stored for BF2142.

                              Well, that won't be running in dual channel mode. You must have matching sticks in DIMM 1 & 3 and DIMM 2 & 4
