Re: Weird freeze problem

I can't see how installing Lost Coast would affect BF2...

Re: Weird freeze problem

I installed and played Lost Coast yesterday !!!!!!

But i did a system restore earlier today 3 days back and that didn't help.

Have you launched steam at all since the system restore? Just wonder if there was an update. I didn't play Lost Coast yesterday, but I may have launched steam at some point yesterday, and it may have updated.

Note: I'm running out of ideas.

Re: Weird freeze problem

If it ****s with directx or other system files ?.

I dont believe it's punkbuster. That should make thousands of players with the same problem as ours.

Re: Weird freeze problem

It's not PB, unless they issued a fix today. The first thing I did after having the problem was a manual update of PB.

Re: Weird freeze problem

I'm not so sure it's Lost Coast that's the problem, I played it Friday and BF2 ran fine; but, maybe there was a steam update yesterday????

Re: Weird freeze problem

Well got rid of Lost coast and all steam half life stuff css etc played Bf2 for a bit then map change WHAM reboot. Didnt really think it would work but I am wondering weather it has anything to do with the HDR used in lost coast changing anything in my system: I dont really know enough about computers maybe someone could say if this is possible. Are the most with this problem ATI card owners in particular the X800 series coz noone in the clan is having any problems after Lost Coast Instal??

Re: Weird freeze problem

I have an X800 pro, but I haven't updated any drivers lately.

Were you able to play for more than 15 seconds then? And were you having rebott problems before or just the game freezing?

Re: Weird freeze problem

Thanks for trying ...

The danish, norwegian ...... forum threads i've been reading shows no evidence that ATI is the sinner here. Several people with 6600/6800 has the same problem.
