installing battlefield on my 1 gb DDR 333 Mhz ram while using a GF TI 4200 128 megs on a AMD xp 2500 resulted in an install that had major choppyness even on the lowest settings .
My other machine an AMD 1 ghz same specs further wise would run the game just fine .
After dicking around trying to troubleshoot this. The following solution helped me out .
I installed on a different Drive that in this case my second harddrive .
keep in mind i reinstalled and patched the bugger several times on C:
After i did the install and patched it right away i went to the videocard properties and set all stuff to default .
And it drokking worked . Weirdest work around ever i seen for a game .
further digging around revealed that the coding for BF is really not that good . Even an unbalanced CD rom player can cause a corrupted install .
This might explain while ppl with the latest drivers and specs way above the recommended ones might have major preformance issues .
Hope this helps hehe
