Re: Batlle feild 2 video problems
Hmm...It seems that the computer may not have enough ram, the processor might not be strong enough, and the videocard could be insufficient. WHen you installed BF2, did you check to see if your computer meets the minimum requirements? Check here:
C:\Program Files\EA Games\Support
THis will tell you exactly where your computer is lacking in a specific are, be it ram or cpu, it's called "Easy Info" and it is in your EA Games folder. Hope this helps.Comment
