Hi, I've had BF2 for about a year and it has worked fine (for the most part) until now all of a sudden, without any hardware or software changes at all, the game semi-freezes whenever a map is finished loading and i see the menu. The mouse just refuses to move (being stuck in the center of the screen), but *behind* the screen the battle rages and i see and hear people playing just fine. I tried restarting, but it didn't help, anyone have any ideas to help??

Re: weird freezing whenever a map starts
Defrag and do a general check for newer drivers on your vid and sound cards. If you haven't defragged in all that time, it will do you a world of good. At the same time, you may want to purge your video cache and let it re-optimize all of that.

Re: weird freezing whenever a map starts
a complete uninstall first and then reinstall to insure any corrupted files are gone.

Re: weird freezing whenever a map starts
Ok, I went to the help page at ea.com for battlefield 2 and it turns out that when I deleted the battlefield 2 file in My Documents it fixed my problem (just had to set all the video options again). Thanks everyone for your help though, cheers.
