If the full 1.3 patch is failing everytime you install it, even with it being downloaded from different sources, then there might be something wrong with your system.

You may have something wrong with the InstallShield driver, or your DirectX driver. Also check for updated hardware drivers and BIOS updates for your motherboard.

I have installed bf2 and the full patch on over 30 systems now. Most of these were new custom built systems, though a few were customer supplied systems.

The only times I have seen any errors was because of bad hardware (HD, memory, MB), bad OS installation, corrupted DirectX, or that the hardware just needed BIOS updates or driver updates.

For some of the customer supplied systems, I have seen both McAfee and Norton cause hell with software installs when these programs are old (outdated) versions and/or not updated.

If you have antivirus installed and running with active scanning, disable the active scanning or stop the services pertaining to the AV functions. Then install BF2 and patch. Once you complete that and can run the game, then you can reactivate the antivirus active scanning.

Dude I posted this several months ago, when I was having the same problem.

1 Uninstall BF-2 and remove all BF-2 related files (BF-2 logo CACHE files) (Mydocuments/bf2/mods/ BF-2 and SF CACHE files) except the Full 1.3 patch...
2. Open your case and pull out your memory. Reinstall the memory.
3 Reload BF-2 then SF.
4. Defrag your system.
5. Attempt to patch game.
6. I hope thats all I did to get my system back running. My original reply to a topic like this should be somewhere in the archives by now if i forgot something.

Good luck getting your system working took me a couple weeks to put everyones suggestions to use and make them work.

No, not the RAM. EA FTW. Once I had reinstalled the RAM and reloaded and repatched everything has worked great with the occational weekly CTD issue, which is corrected by deleting the Logo and BF-2 cache files then reoptimizing.

I had no hardware problems.

Re: Patching Failed [ 1.3 full ]
