    BF2 can only support 17" monitors and below. It also doesn't support LCD screens.












    jk, we need more details, like does anything happen, ie splash screen? did you try the old monitor? I can't imagine this is all because of a monitor.

        When you install new hardware you have to reinstall bf2. You probly installed new drivers, so try reinstalling.

            wow when i load up Call of Duty it says this and loads fine....

            "it appears you have changed hardware since the last time you ran Call of Duty. Should we change the settings for you then you wont have a hard time and have to reinstall the damn game?"

                Well it's something to do with your My Documents/Battlefield 2/ Folder, try deleting it, then try again. If not, then reinstall.

                  hah! i knew it was all a settings conflict. I looked thru my video.con file and changed the refresh rate. It was set as 85 herts becaue my CRT could handl that. So then i knew my new LCD i only capable of 75 hertz so i changed it to 75hertz and it booted up. I'm a genius!

                              Manually delete the game - use a reg cleaner and get the reg entries (or do it manually)

                              Reboot

                              Reinstall that beyotch. Stupid game
