cykio Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 can't find any drivers? you prob have most up to date drivers from ur manufacturers website? best place to start. you could try search for some older drivers that are sure to work with bf2 check on some bf2 fourms You on vista , xp or 7? try a compatibility mode?

WhollyMindless Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Just get each of the latest drivers from the manufacturer sites. There are no drivers specific to certain games (if you're doing this right - of course there ARE cheating drivers but you would really have to look hard for those). It could be that the OS is messed up (I was going to say "broken" but I think I'd be misunderstood) and you might need to consider "refreshing" your system. If it's windows and you haven't been keeping things up and installed / uninstalled a lot, a clean install can make things nice again.

VaKo Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Try older or newer GPU drivers, or give W7 a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maj_Jedi Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I just finished building my new Gaming computer and was trying to play Bf2 but every time i clicked the "play BF2 now", the image came , a black screen came but then comes back to my desktop. my friend told me i could find drivers for that game but i can't seem to find any. check the refresh rate on the lcd. if it's locked at 59 BF2 WILL NOT run no matter what you do. I had the issue in Win7 on my laptop. in XP the refresh rate gave me the choice of 59 or 60. i picked 60 and it worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foo Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 you updated to latest 1.5 patch too, right? also, don't use those play online NOW shorcuts the game makes. there's a bug, at least in the Play Online Now, shortcut that causes game to freeze/crash when opening. dunno if they addressed that in 1.5 patch or not. i just noticed it was out the other day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoofinator Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 What OS are you running? Do you have any programs running in the background, such as Folding@home, sidebar gadgets, or other distributed computing tasks? if you do, kill those apps before playing. then make sure you have the latest BF2 patch: v1.5 & highway Tampa. Also do the usual suspects like: update your motherboard bios & chipset drivers, latest video & sound card drivers. then poke around punkbuster's web site and update your punkbuster software, if none of that works, try a full reinstall of the game, and repatch? good luck I just finished building my new Gaming computer and was trying to play Bf2 but every time i clicked the "play BF2 now", the image came , a black screen came but then comes back to my desktop. my friend told me i could find drivers for that game but i can't seem to find any.
