Okay so here's the deal, Do you have the following patches on your computer:
1.2 (full)
1.21 (full)
1.22 (full)
If not, then I suggest getting them.
Now, install the 1.2 patch over your 1.3 followed by the 1.21, and then 1.22. Don't reinstall 1.3.
I tried this by recommendation of a friend who had multiple testimonials (12 I think) saying it worked fine.
I'm not sure why it works but it does.
try it.

Your hardware, by the way, is just fine.

This is what I had to do:

- completely uninstall BF2 and BF2:SF.  Backup General.con and Control.con somewhere else.  Remove any trace of BF2 on My Documents.   Reboot.
- Uninstall your graphics "display" driver.  Reboot.
- Install the latest Beta Nvidia display drivers.  Reboot.
- Install BF2.  Reboot.
- Install BF2:SF  Reboot.
- Install 1.3 Full Install.  Restore your .con files if you want.  Reboot.

Have fun...

- Start
- Settings
- Control Panel
- Add/Remove Programs
- Look for the "Nvidia Display Driver" or "Nvidia Drivers".  When prompted to delete from a selection, only delete the "display" drivers.

NVIDIA Beta drivers are here: http://www.nzone.com/object/nzone_downl … river.html

Or get official drivers here: http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp

Forgot.  You can also backup/restore your video.con file.

And then maybe this link: http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=28392.  But I didn't have to do this.  Could be because I'm running XP64 though.

ROTFL

Sorry, dude, but that was the funniest post I have seen in Months!!! Whenever I see people telling someone to uninstall, and reinstall,  I think a minimum of an hour or more... Win XP? book the day off...

Is the crash in the middle of a round, or is it at the start of a new round? I haven't had a single crash mid-round, but I have when I started a new round.

Reinstall and patch took about 25 mins, but then i got the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH so i had to install windows again, so i gotta do it all again.

I hope the reinstall of window will help the game.

I guess we'll know in a day or more... sorry dude! I have to say I called it though!

Rent the Lord of the Rings trilogy, setup a macro disk to install all of your critical software automatically, and just be there to change CD's, and click "ok" once in a while.

My good friend you've answered your own question!

I think your RAM is on the shitters whether it's crashing bf2 or not.

Go download MemTest86 and test your ram.
