Think it started after the 1.10 patch, I played for a few weeks with no problems after the patch install. I also downloaded 1.41 for BF2 around the same time.
What I am experiencing is this. I can join game and play , BUT i can only play for like HMMM three minutes before my computer LOCKS RIGHT THE HELL UP.
I DO NOT HAVE SOUND in a loop. I have no sound at all. Can not alt tab alt f4.
I have to hold my button in to shut the pc down.
I don't understand what has changed, I have been playing fine since the release of 1.10 but now all of a sudden i have problems.
SO FAR :
1. I have deleted my VC Driver and updated it with 73.91 from Nvidia.com
2. Unistalled BF2142, Went to Registry and cleaned. Via Regedit.
3. Installed Bf2142, and reinstalled the most recent patch.
Question can i just install 1.10? from stock program or do ihave to go through all of them?
4. i was thinking about loading windows again but my damm disk is cracked.
Running XP Home Edition. Can i borrow a friends Disk and use my product key? I heard that for some reason you can't do this but i don't know that's why im asking.
5. Tried changing my resolution , from 60Hz to 70 HZ 800x 600.
contacted ea but still waiting for a response.
COuld heat be an issue?
PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME. I am going through withdrawl!! ( Shakes in chair holding arms).
THe weirest thing is IF i wanna play BF2 instead i can not go longer than ten minutes before the same issue happens.
DO ineed a Better video card. Like a AGP x8 Nvidia 6800 with 512 onboard?
Thanks guys for your assistance...
