Re: Vista issue

Yes it is, my other games run fine. I mean I can get into the BF2 or 2142, it's only when I click join server that it crashes.

Re: Vista issue

I suspect it's some hardware/driver incompatibility. I can't really suggest anything else to do bar reinstall the OS and update drivers.

Re: Vista issue

I recently added 2GB of RAM but I don't see how that would affect it.

BF works in mysterious ways. It crashes for the most bizarre reasons. Try turning on memory remapping in your BIOS.

Re: Vista issue

Ok, I'll check that when I get home thanks Alex. I am running an ASUS P5B board with the 2100 version BIOS.

I think that worked. Also I noticed in the BIOS that after I upgraded it yesterday that my on board sound was turned back on. I disabled that and turned memory mapping on. I can get in to 2142 fine, and about to test BF2.

Re: Vista issue

I am assuming you have 4gb of memory and a 32bit operating system. Without memory remapping, the system memory and PCI-E memory overlaps (i think that's the term). It's all a mess really.
