Mine CTD's randomly during games. No freezing, just black screen then desktop. Could it also be the video.con file causing this? I run Vista 32bit.

Yes, I deleted the file but it still does this. Anyone got anything else I can do?

Also, do I delete the Video.con files in the 10000, 20000, 3000, and 4000 (or w/e they are) folders too??

The video.con only helps if the game is trying to launch with incorrect video settings and then crashes. The random CTD's happen to everyone and are, as stated, random.

And you should delete the file in all the folders, also from the 'default' folder. BF2 crashes if it tries to load incorrect video settings from the current profile's video.con file and I wouldn't know which one you are using atm.

If this doesn't help you should make sure you run BF2 as an admin and then try deleting the shaders from the same BF2 folder in your documents.

Why are the Video.con files there if they don't help or anything? Also, the intro video works fine but its just logging in.

EDIT: I just deleted all the video.con files from those folders and this still happens. Please anyone got any other ideas? Thank you so much

In those forums, they say to port forward soem stuff. Will this work for my situation? Also if it does, how do I do this as I have no experience in port forwarding

Can anyone please help? I tried reinstalling it but no use. I can play on 1.41 singleplayer fine, and before I put the patch in I could play on 1.0 multiplayer now?

What do you mean backup??? Like copying the folder and then delete the bf2 folder??? I have renamed it but not that. I don't think it'll work but ill try =/

BTW people I just installed 1.41 and it has been doing this. I can play on 1.0 multiplayer and 1.41 singlplayer though =/
