Install Problems - Win-64 bit

[RanDog]

I have a Win-64 bit system (AMD) and am trying to install BF 2 from the DVD.

When it gets past the initial screen it goes to the first install screen and the progress bar completes; there is a flash in the screen, and then....

nothing.

at all.

Has anyone seen this before?

WTF?

I dought its a XP64 problem because I am running BF2 of it fine. Make sure you have the correct drivers for everything thats where most of the problems are with xp64.

Well - I have tried everything. I mean *everything* - and I cannot figure it out.

Anyone else had this problem?

Just a little background:

My BF2 was working great. Special Forces would not work after I built the new 64bit system and tried to run it. So I played BF2 for a while.

Then the patch came out and I thought I would give it another go.

Same issues, so I uninstalled BF2 and SF - now BF2 refuses to install perwhat is happening above.

Frustrated is not the word for it!

Iam using xp x64 and never any problems, I really dont think your problem has to do with xp x64

actually after reading your post carefully, I think I had the same problem as you, do you have the same sort of problem if you try uninstalling bf2 from your add or remove programs?

I agree - I think it is more of something messed up. I just don't know what to check. I pretty familiar with computers - I have built 5 successfully - - and never have run in to this type of problem.

Re: Install Problems - Win-64 bit

Have you tried the manual install method as explained in the stickies in this forum?

Are you running and virtual drive software such as demon tools?
