      I had no problems with my initial DL and install. I played for a few days and then I got kicked from a server, along with everyone else and a message from EA popped up saying I can't play EF maps cause I have to install it. I have it installed and EA DL'er just says ready to play. I can't ininstall it cause it doesn't show up in control panel, therefore I can't reinstall it??? Thanks EA, there was no problems taking my money from my bank account!!!

            Iconix, don't worry about the name you chose for the EA registration.
            The gamespy ID you will have to enter at a later point during the registration process for EF. Your gamespy ID is the name you use in BF2 to login.
            If it is not the same name you are using in gamespy and BF2, you can login to your gamespy account, and change the name to match your BF2 player name.
            That's normal that a lot of names are already chosen. Don't worry about that. Just use a number instead of a letter e.g. replace the I in your name with a 1, a T with a 7 etc. I'm sure you'll be able to create a name for your EA account.

            Hope you get it to work soon :)

                  I bought euro forces the first day it came out and had no problems paying with credit card and having my card being debited the next day. I have yet to get it working. Ea downloader errors in the middle of install. I sent a message to ea and got a response a day later telling me to reinstall which i had already done numerous times exactly as they said. I basically tried everything in their troubleshooter and nothing works. I have a very good pc.... amd fx-55, dual sli nvidia 7800 gtx's etc. It really torques me off that this won't work.. i get no support...I guess they're happy they have their money and an honest paying customer is screwed over a week.

                    Theres 14 pages on the downloader thread on EA's website.

                    I don't think its the positive response they were talking about though.

                    Mostly lots of ***** and ***** and somemore ***** LOL

                      I finally got downloader to work after finding a contact number. The first contact gave me the generic answers i already new. He gave me another number for support and he told me to start in safe mode. it worked. apparently a turned off nvidia firewall that comes with my motherboard was screwing things up. asus a8n -sli deluxe.

                        I didn't have any problems, but I found the downloader to be clunky and over complicated.

                            EA, poor code.....How dare you mister. EA puts nothing but the finest coded programs out today. Highly tested with months and months of QA.

                              I first installed the EAD just to get EF. It took about 15 mins total time to download EAD, install it, run it, login, purchase EF, download EF, install EF, play EF.

                              I have installed EAD and purchased games with it on four computers now...no problems here.

                              A friend could not get it to work correctly, he was getting errors during the EF download. It turned out to be his Norton firewall. Shut off Norton (he has a hardware firewall - Linksys router) and the EAD worked as it should.

                                i think it is overly complicated it took me for over to fiqure out the gamespy nickname was supposed to be my bf2 playername.
