Hey, thanks for the help in advance!

I am having issues with the patches not taking effect. The patches have downloaded fully, and appear to install/patch fully.

Upon entering game i am still at version 1.1.29.

Has anyone heard of or had this issue? If so, i would greatly appreciate hints/tips on how to resolve this.

I was pleasantly supprised to not have any other installing issues, as i tried on vista 64 bit and had nightmares for a month.

New computer,

Gateway fx
duo core p8700
geforce 260 1 gig ddr3
4gig ram
Windows 7 premium

Again, thank you for your your info!

*everything (patches and game) is ran compatable with win xp SP3 and perm admin*

There's a specific order you have to install shit in.

Install BF2
Install 1.41
Install 1.5 (Make sure it's not the Beta).

If you're trying to do Special Forces too there's even more steps, but I've forgotten them.

he didnt cuss at you.  he was referring to the game.  can you join servers?  do you accumulate stats?  if so, then you have the proper patch.  don't worry about anything else.

You might just need to completely uninstall and re-install at this point. Be sure to delete your folder in My Documents when/if you do.

I'd suggest re-patching from the beginning, that is installing 1.41 completely and then 1.5. And maybe a full install if that doesnt work. Also, what CD of BF2 do you have? The Complete Collection?

The last digits should be .802 once the patching is completed. 1.41's code is .709

Lastly, never, EVER use the play now option. It takes aaaaaaaaageeeeeeees to get into a game, and most of the time will toss you in an empty server.
