  • Blank Screen = Crash to desktop

    Hello all.

    I got my new laptop today and wanted to try BF2. I installed the game and patch (1.41) and then tried to play it....but.... after I click on it the BF2 start screen appears then the screen turns black and then crashes back to desktop. I did right click and run as admin but that did not help. And the changing refresh rate under profiles did not work either.

    Lil help pls

    Specs:
    Windows vista home basic
    3gb ram
    80gb hard
    1.6 gh dual core
    and Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 (heard it is possible to play on low settings).

    Thanks in advance.

        It apparently works "Battlefield 2: 800x600, Low Quality: 28 fps -> playable"
        Try the latest drivers.
        Also make sure you have Directx 9.0c installed.
        Something else I just read is that your refresh rate may be 59Hz which isn't supported by default. You need to use notepad to open the video.con files, if there any, in My Documents/Battlefield 2/Profiles and change the refresh rate on the relevant line from 60 to 59Hz.
