Re: ~ BF2 Constant Crashing ~ Help Please ~

Yes but like what GFX?? so it doesnt crash!!??

Hey,

I recently started playing BF2, i installed it worked fine for about 2 months, then all of a sudden it has problems!

Basically i click the "play online now" it loads, this is were the problems start!

Somtimes i can log in, this takes about 5 mins it will then go into the main BFHQ Stuff, i click Multiplayer, select a map, and as soon as i click "Join" it shuts the whole window down, and closes the whole BF2, so i have to start again.

Also, sometimes i click log in, it will take around, 5 minutes then it will close as before to the desktop and completely close BF2,

Resulting in reloading BF2 & Crashing (Once Again)

I deleted the cache folder, and no change,
Also i have re-installed the game 2 - 3 times, working for a day or so, then problems returns..!

Please note this is not my Pc it has got differnt specs to my Sig,
Here Are The System Specs of the problem pc: ~

OS - Microsoft Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600
CPU - Intel Core 2 CPU 6400 @ 2.1GHz (2 CPUs)
Memory - 2GB Ram (2046MB RAM)
Graphics - 256MB ATI Radeon X1300PRO
HDD - 290GB

I seriously like BF2 and want to resolve this strange problem, please give me suggestions i can try out!

Thanks In Advance!

Go to My Documents and delete the BF2 folder there, or rename it.

it worked good then it started this? thats odd, have u done a good cleanup of junk on your pewter? have u checked the registry for errors (im guessing that could be your problem) have u updted your punkbuster?
speakin of punkbuster, check out this i paste in here make sure non of these belong too you>>>

My computer locks up or "chugs" sometimes while I'm playing with PunkBuster Enabled, what can cause this?

PunkBuster "pushes" hardware and the Windows Operating System more than most software and uses functions in the Windows API (low level functions) that aren't used by most other programs. As such, there are a few cases where using PB can actually expose flaky hardware or other situations that don't cause problems for other software. Here are a few things that have helped other users make these problems get better or go away completely:

Make sure you are using the latest version of PunkBuster (the latest version is always on our Download page) - also this link may help manually update your PB to the latest version when necessary
From the game's main screen, press the tilde key (the ~ key) to bring down the console and enter the following line (without the quotes): "/pb_system 1".
Never close other programs from your Windows Task Manager before playing the game, either leave them running or close them through the proper interface - killing a process doesn't always work completely even if it stops showing in the Task Manager and renegade threads seem to conflict with PB more than other programs that may be running in memory. There is a free utility that some players use called EndItAll to close all extra programs before they play to avoid software conflicts, crashes and lockups. You can get it from here.
Check the add/remove programs list in your Control Panel and uninstall any programs that you don't use or that you don't know what they are.
One program that seems to conflict with PB more than others is Norton Anti-Virus. If you have it installed, try uninstalling it to see if the lockups go away. Some players have reported that when this is the culprit, they can reinstall Norton Anti-Virus and the lockups don't come back.
Other background programs that seem to conflict with PB for some users are Sound Blaster Live software and helper programs that come with video cards (especially ATI keyboard shortcut programs).
Some players discovered that they had a computer virus and that the lockups vanished after it was fully removed.
Experiment with the pb_sleep setting ... try setting it to 20, 250, or 500 to see if that affects your game performance. A few players have reported that all the problems go away when they "tweak" this setting.
In extreme cases, a few users have reported that replacing their RAM (memory) or video/sound cards fixed the problem.

<Scratching head> Dang, something has to be conflicting, have u updated drivers like soundcard & video drivers?

u probably allready said & i forgot, but have u tried reinstalling, & have u downloaded the 1.41 patch & installed?

oh i just thought of something, if ur display settings dont match it wont open i found that out the hard way, i changed my refresh rate on my comptuer from 60hz to 75 & it wouldnt do nothing but crash. just a though.

worse comes to worse how about a system restore?

besta luck

**XavierOwn™** · 08-10-2007, 12:24 PM

Re: ~ BF2 Constant Crashing ~ Help Please ~
