Problem: BF2 crashes on startup. I've read the troubleshooting threads but nothing has worked. I got BF2 to run once, I was in game for a bit then it crashed my system (sound loop and all) I restarted and tired to reinstall. WHen I would load to 47% it would crash out to desktop. I reinstalled and now it CTDs as soon as I click on it. :cry:
My system is a Core 2 duo 6300. DS-3 mobo, 2 gigs OCZ platinum XTC and a 530w enermax power supply.
At first my mobo wouldn't run dual channel. I found it was a common problem and fixed it(updates BIOS to f6). I had some stability issues when ram was in 4-5-4-15. I set it to 4-4-4-12 and it worked ok. I have recently set it back to 4-5-4-15 and it seems to be working fine.
I don't have an A drive so I haven't been able to run a mem test. I ran one that would test it in windows and it came back ok. I still haven't figured out if my RAM is bad. When I was having trouble running in dual channel, I tried starting up with a single stick, then swapped sticks to see if it would run. Both sticks gave me no problems when they were alone on the mobo. I still don't know if my RAM is bad. I've tried setting the affinity and onjly running it on one core, but it doesn't help either.
What should I do?

I can run BF2 right after I install it, but if I patch, I get this problem.
