    Solution to In game Control Freeze, Mouse Freeze

    It seems many people on this forum have this problem, I had the same problem, after lots of research I have discover the problem, and decide to share with all of you.

    The freeze is usually caused because you halted the game unexpectedly (Due to Game Crash, Computer Crash, powercut etc) and when you go back in the game, and enter a server, Your mouse and keyboard freezes, you can hear a battle going in the background, only that you can't even move your mouse, the only way is to Alt+F4 to exit the game. Restarting your computer etc doesn't solve the problem.

    The problem is due to game control, When you start the game, the control file (where all your keys are defined are loaded in the memory, and the file on your harddisk is deleted, so if you exit the game unexpectedly, the control file won't be written back in to your game folder, and so all controls are lost.

    Solution:
    1. Enter the game
    2. Click on Settings
    3. Click on Controls
    *At this point you should notice all the controls are blank.
    4. Click on Reset to Default

    5. Find a server and enjoy :)

      Yup, it worked. Thanks again. Now I'm off to spend the next half hour re mapping my controls. :)

          i've got a kinda similar problem but all my controls are still mapped, all my input just stops for a split second then starts again, and happens over and over the whole time i'm playing -_-

            Here's an even BETTER idea.. All of us 1337 guys (clan -excon-) decided we're not going to stand for remapping our keys all the time. If you go into your documents/bf2 there's a folder that contains your configs.. BACK IT UP!! It's not really that hard to do. Copy the folder, paste it on another drive, floppy, USB Thumb Drive, heck, even a CD-RW. I even copied it and pasted it right in the same directory and changed the # from 001 to 002. now if something happens to my first set of settings, I can log in with 002 (same name, pass, controls, etc) and just copy/paste after I'm done playing that game. Seems just slightly FASTER and smarter then to take 20+ min to remap all your keys.
