    Cant Play BF2

    Alright heres the story last time we played BF2 and was fine was we had a 128mb 6600gt nvidia and 1gb ram, everything else was stock as i will show you except for the video and Ram.

    a couple weeks ago my bro bought a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 512MB DDR2
    and we upgraded to get a 1.5G Ram and we can install the game fine but as for getting up to the menu or changing settings shortly after itll freeze automatically or so slow it takes like 10 minutes just to open the task manager. now the game isnt causing any CPU usage or anything its running fine, but the game is slow like almost feezes. and somewhere down the road were lucky enough to just jump into a single player (no internet) and walk 5 steps and freeze, we have to shut the computer off and restart it. whats happening?

    just curious whats up ive talked to the BFG guys and he has no clue. ive downloaded the latest drivers and ive turned off my firewalls ive manually and automatically uninstalled the game and reinstalled, nothing is working.

    my bro thinks it might be the game messed up or the patch (1.41) (latest)

    heres the specs:

    Processor - Intel Pentium 4 2.53 Ghz / 533
    Chipset - 845G
    Memory - 1,500 DDR |
    Hard Drive - 120G
    CD-Rom Drive - 48x
    DVD+RW/+R drive
    - CD - 32x/12x/10x
    - DVD - 8x/24x/24x
    Diskette Drive - 1.44MB (3.5")
    Fax and Data Modem - Cheetah 2 Modem
    PCI I/O Card - Audigy With 1394
    Video Graphics - GeForce 7300 GT 512MB DDR2
    Sound/Audio - AC97 Audio
    Network Interface - 10/100BT Integrated on Motherboard
    USB Specifications - USB 2.0

    Please Help ive got nothing left. i put in 1942 and works great and added on the Desert Combat mod lol but that works fine. just BF2????

    did you run driver cleaner before installing the 7300? also freezing means the card can be faulty or even the memory cud be bad...run memtest and driver cleaner and post back

      yeah when u put in a new video card (which idk if it is better than ur old 6600gt) u need to uninstall drivers, run drivercleaner pro, and install new drivers. then dont forget to clear ur shaders cache located in

      C:\Documents and Settings\name\My Documents\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\cache

      also, wat settings ru playing at? idk about the 7300, but i kno that for lower-end cards, if u have dynamic lighting on (even set at low) and someone near u fires their gun, ur game will freeze for like 20 seconds
