  • Vista 64 crashing under many many games , bf2, bf2142,stalker,cnc3 and more FIXED!!!!

    Found this by slavemaker on Planet Battlefield


    do this at your own risk, but i must tell you that i have done this to 5 computers, 3 with vista 64 and 2 with vista 32 from 2gb to 4gb system memory
    and it rocks, no more crashing, no more low performance. NO MORE MEMORY.DLL ISSUES

    for those with 2gb do this first
    click on start, then right click in computer, select properties, once the window is open click on advenced system settings, system properties is now open, click on the advance tab, under performance click on settings, then in visual effects press adjust for best performance, press apply,u should see a big change in your UI now, before closing tht we are going to set some visual effects that does not use many memory and make more comfortable the use of windows, in the boxes select this visual effects only
    show thumbails instead of icons
    show translucent selection rectangle
    smooth edges of screen fonts
    use dropshadows for icon labels on the desktop
    use visual style on windows and buttons

    hit apply.
    then go to advanced in tht same window, and you are going to change ur pagefile from system managed to custom set initial value to 3500, max size 3500
    OK NOW THE FIX, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!!!

    (You'll need to be an Administrator)
    First, you'll need to grab and install Visual Studio C++ Express from Microsoft.

    It's free so don't worry.

    Once installed, you'll need to update it. also the game make sure u have lastest

    patch installed

    Backup the bf2.exe file. Just in case.
    Start ->Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition ->Visual Studio Tools ->Visual Studio

    2005 Command Prompt
    Navigate to your battlefield 2 directory.
    If you don't know how to navigate in DOS, follow this:
    "cd c:\Program Files\" ENTER ***c:\Program Files (x86)\ ENTER in vista 64***
    then usually it's "cd EA GAMES" ENTER
    "cd Battlefield 2" ENTER

    NOW WRITE THIS

    editbin.exe /LARGEADDRESSAWARE BF2.exe hit ENTER. Should come up with a

    Microsoft copyright or trademark thingy. This means success.
    write exit and hit ENTER
    RDY TO ROCK!!

    now this fix works for most of the games, i have use it in BF2, BF2142, STALKER,

    CNC3, COH

    to know what file u have to modify u need to see wich one is using the memory

    since sometimes it's not the (gamename.exe) for example in cnc3 its a file

    called cnc3game.dat not cnc3.exe, and in stalker its one called XR_3da.exe
