Well i cant play Bf2 at my BIG PC i dont know why it starts and Crashed after 1 second i use win 7 Ultimate, Patches and all at normal order installed but i cant start it :(

kompality mode on XP service pack 3
start at a admin
all recent tips at forums at moment used.

Video edit yes, delete the B2 Ordner at Documents yes and many tips more :(
 
This can be down to a load of different things if Admin doesn't work next try deleting your Video.con (or make sure it has the correct res and refresh rate) file

yeah done too but allways not works
 
affinity to 1 for cpu at bf2 in task manager?
 
Change it to use only one core of your CPU (seeing as it doesn't start you won't be able to do it with task manager I'm guessing) so create a shortcut to bf2.exe, right click the shortcut, go properties and add to the front of the text in the target box: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /affinity 1

So it should look something like: Target: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /affinity 1 C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe

well it allways say: invalid path
 
I might not of typed it correctly try C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start "" /affinity 1 "C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe"

This is assuming you installed it in C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\

yeah i know but he dont accept the first part: "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe \C start \affinity 1" "E:\Programme\EA Games\Battelfield 2"
 
Ah you're putting quotes around it that's why C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start "" /affinity 1 "E:\Programme\EA Games\Battelfield 2" is how it should be

That's indicates to me something is wrong with the resolution line of you video.con (does BF2 support 1360x768?? Not sure) have you tried changing that line to 800x600@60Hz (in profile 001 folder)

From what I can see it doesn't (that might be pre 1.5 patch though)


So even with the default Video.con file:

VideoSettings.setTerrainQuality 2
VideoSettings.setGeometryQuality 2
VideoSettings.setLightingQuality 2
VideoSettings.setDynamicLightingQuality 2
VideoSettings.setDynamicShadowsQuality 2
VideoSettings.setEffectsQuality 2
VideoSettings.setTextureQuality 2
VideoSettings.setTextureFilteringQuality 2
VideoSettings.setResolution 800x600@60Hz
VideoSettings.setAntialiasing Off
VideoSettings.setViewDistanceScale 1
VideoSettings.setVideoOptionScheme 1
Click to expand...


It still crashed? (Also can you say what res and refresh rate you are at when you right click your desktop and go screen resolution, just wanna make sure it's not at like 59Hz instead of 60Hz as that would be a problem)
 
AW: Re: WIN 7 and BF2 wanna not start

its at 60Hz


VideoSettings.setTerrainQuality 3
VideoSettings.setGeometryQuality 3
VideoSettings.setLightingQuality 3
VideoSettings.setDynamicLightingQuality 3
VideoSettings.setDynamicShadowsQuality 3
VideoSettings.setEffectsQuality 3
VideoSettings.setTextureQuality 3
VideoSettings.setTextureFilteringQuality 3
VideoSettings.setResolution 800x600@60Hz
VideoSettings.setAntialiasing 8
VideoSettings.setViewDistanceScale 1
VideoSettings.setVideoOptionScheme 3

This is weird the error is saying that it doesn't support that resolution so changing it to default should work, maybe you have to change it in both the Default video.con and the 001 Video.con etc
