Re: Radeon BF2 problem?

Okay, i turned VPU off and it didnt do anything. My screen still turns black. The only way i can fix the problem is to reset my computer.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Re: Radeon BF2 problem?

Jus adding in my card.

Its a Radeon 9800 pro 128mb and is running fine on the 6.2 drivers.

I heartily recommend using the Ati 5.6 drivers as they were very stable indeed for me, fixed alot of problems. Also make sure 'Fastwrite' is turned OFF in the BIOS as alot of people report problems with this on, its not important.
Also if your AGP setting is on 8x turn it down to 4x as theres no noticable difference at all and your game should run great. Another tip most people know is to turn your AGP aperture size down to 64mb and you should deffo see a nice up in FPS.

If you try these things then I'm sure you'll only see good things as I had problems for months and it was in doing all of these things that my problems had ended.

Good luck! :)

No I dont think it will run. PCI slots dont have enough bandwidth.

Is there a date set for 1.21?

Re: Radeon BF2 problem?

Got a 9200, same problems as reported above. And before I hear some crap about not upgrading, YOU try balancing money for an upgrade with college and groceries as well.

Thank goodness for tax refund checks, my new card is due to arrive Tuesday.

I heard 1.21 was going to be out on the 10th March with the 1st booster Euro Force out on the 15th. As reported in News on this forum, hope it fixes alot of stuff

What is VPU?

Visual Processing Unit

VPU recover resets your graphics card if its ****ing up like it stops responding to game/driver commands etc it resets it but it can also just reset your graphics card for no reason like when its under heavy stress the screen goes black and like 10 minutes later will come up saying

"VPU Recover has reset your graphics card!"

yeh thanks it was running fine before you did that!

ooh yeeeeeeh! so my graphics card 256mb ram is now redundant! wooo!

that only works if you have a graphics card with a low aperture size so it doesn't spill over in the ram.

I have an 9800XT card with all settings on high, 6AA, i still get an FPS (measured with fraps and renderer.drawFPS) of 60/70 fraps and 40-50 renderer

That data comes from the unofficial, sensational, unpredictable, unprecize 1up.com site, don't believe anything till it's on the big EA site :p
