    Reinstalling - need info

    I am reinstalling BF2 because it keeps sending me back to the desktop.
    My question is -- can I just upgrade with the 1.3 patch or do I have to
    load previous patches?

    Should I install what ever patch(s) are need before installing SF?

    Thanks in advance.

          True. Here is the actual order:

          INSTALLATION ORDER:
          BF2
          SF
          FULL 1.3 patch
          EF
          FULL 1.3 patch
          AF

          I would reboot after installing each 1.3 full patch as I have seen video errors in the game when patching and running straight up.

          AF is ready for the 1.3 patch (it was built on the 1.3 patch), so if you are patched to 1.3 as I listed above, you do not need to reapply it after installing AF.

          But, If you have any errors loading some of the game files, then reinstall the full 1.3 patch again as that sorts most problems.

          The patch files do not always install correctly the first time and may need to be reapplied.

            Thanks all - I used the BF2 - SF - 1.3 and it works just great --- Now if I could just stay alive long enough to really enjoy the game -sigh-

            Thanks for noticing my aviator John! I was 1 year old when that was taken. My mother thought I was cute! You should see me now :laugh:
