    NEw Build - Now BF2 won't load

    DFI Ultra-D
    AMD Opty 170
    XFX 7900GTX
    WD Raptor 74GB
    OCZ Powerstream 520w

    I just built my new system last night, and finished it up today. I installed BF2, SF, Patches, and EF. I got into the game, set everything up, exited, and went on my merry way.

    I then attempt to play it tonight and when I double click the BF2 icon, the screen goes balck - and stays black, until the point where the game isn't responding. If I Alt+Ctrl+Delete then I get the error (Send/Do Not Send Error), talking about the bf2.exe and szModPath: hungapp - or something like that.

    I uninstalled EVERYTHING. Cleaned the registry using CCleaner AND manually. I then install it again. Same thing happens, except there is no getting in once as I did before. Now I can't get in the game at all.

    I uninstall it, go through the process again, but this time after every step I run the game. After initial install - everything was fine. I installed SF and tried to run it - It takes a LONG time to load up the EA Logo. It basically goes into a not responding stage, then pulls itself out of it.

    From this point I haven't gone any further in installing patches etc.

    So far I have:

    Changed video cards
    Changed SATA ports
    Tried different CD-Rom drives

    Nothing above worked.

    I have NO problems running other programs at all.

    Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

    What about your ram and video cards you tried?

      I don't quite understand you question?

      I switched out my video card for another 7900GTX - same issue.

      My memory is memtest stable . . .

      Hmmm. . .

      My other PC, which is a tad different than the new build is taking the EXACT amount of time to load the game, doing the EXACT same thing - yet it NEVER took this long . . . I'm wondering if a new windows update screwed me over . . .

      If you guys have some way of using a stopwatch, and timing your load sequence ( from the BF2 splash screen, to the log in screen (NOT clicking log in), and posting your specs, I'd EXTREMELY appreciate it.

      Thanks!

        About 13 seconds from clicking the shortcut to the first ingame image (with the round EA logo), my CRT monitor seem to do a few mode changes, which may account for that time. about 27 secs from click to movie sequence. Then I type escape and see the login screen after 2-3 seconds.
        specs: 2GB DDR, AMD64 4200 x2. 2 Seagates 7200 in raid 0.

        Did you also remove you're profiles (not sure if that gets removed when you reinstall), there is some cache folder in there that tracks you settings, etc.
