I have searched the forum and have not found anyone with the same problem so here goes.
I bought BF2 last year and from the begining had issues with not loading. I sorted this out and played all the patches and bought SF. I installed Euro and all ok. I get Armoured Fury and patch 1.3 and everything goes wrong.
After the logon screen i always freeze at the options / server/ bfhq /singleplayer screen. On rare occassions i got in a game for a few seconds and the game would either freeze or have a sound loop and freeeze. I also had freezes on server map loading screens.
After re-installing the game and patch no joy so wait for 1.4. In the meantime i buy a new graphic card, mobo, ram and do a fresh xp install. I then try out BF2 again with the same results. Fed up I do a fresh install and try 1.22 but its the same ! Even after unning successfully before ! At this point i lost the will to live and waited for 1.4.
Today fresh install and patch 1.4. Try singleplayer and dont alter any options and get on a map. Yeeha! Go to multiplayer online and start locking up at options and configuration screen. Its still the bloody same!
Sorry for the length of post but my spec:
win xp sp2
maxtor 120gb ide
3700 san diego (stock)
xfx 7600 gt pci-e (stock) (latest driver)
2gb corsair vs ddr400 (stock)
abit an8 sli
on board audio
500w psu
I had thought it might be my new graphics or maybe the psu but I can play HL2 Lost Coast and Episode1 no problem. I can run Aquamark3 and 3D Mark 06. I have alterd a file after reading a post video default.con. I have stopped a process in windows called wireless something after reading another post. I disable all anti virus and any other rubbish. If it crashed all the time on all games then I could understand, but one game after so many permutations is just annoying.
Thanks for reading this and I hope someone has advice beyond re-install and re-patch.
