When I try to load a map nothing happens. It doesn't crash or take me back to the desktop, it just doesn't load. The progress bar doesn't move an inch. I have Geforce 2 MX 440, Athlon XP 1800+, 512 MB Ram.
I have updated my Geforce 2 MX440 to 44.71. The latest version is 45.23 but when I update to that version my Warcraft 3, NFS: Hot Pursuit 2, and Madden NFL 2004 all have some kind of missing artwork problem. So I'm sticking to version 44.71.
I fixed the problem. I just had to turn the resolution down to the lowest. But now there's another problem. The mouse pointer won't move when I start the game. This problem started while I was playing and I got a blue screen telling me the problem. It wasn't my RAM's problem so it must have been a program problem. I have Windows XP Professional Edition.
Wow -- really? I haven't heard of that fix before.
Your system can handle a higher resolution than 640*480, so I would suggest turning it up one or two notches to see if that corrects your new problem. This can be done by doing the following:
Browse to EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\Settings\Profiles\<your profile>, open Video.con, find "game.setGameDisplayMode," and change "640 480" to "800 600" to start with.
If your mouse is USB, are you by any chance using a PS/2 adapter with it? Those can be known to cause some problems.
I don't think there was a log file. I only got a link a Microsoft support site which led me to http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp. I used it to check for problems in my RAM but there wasn't any. Now there is no way for me to play Battlefield 1942, I even reinstalled the game. Just forget about this.
I think we need to add something to the bottom of the front page that shows the Headline News forum that has a link to go to the News Forum Index so people can see there is more news. Do you guys see what I am saying, lets say you read all the articles on the front page and you get to the end and it just ends, no kind of link for MOAR!
Finally finding about some of the bots that are flooding the users online - bytespider apparently is a huge offender here - ignores robots.txt and comes in from a ton of different IPs
Ghan has said he has fixed this. Monovertex please confirm this fix. This was only a problem with people that had signatures in the upper levels like not the special members but the respected members.
