Troubleshooting

[stubs101]

No idea what it means lol. But i got BF2Deluxe and when i installed it it wouldn't work. So I learned it was a video card problem, mine was well below the requirements. So my brother got a new one and let me have his old one, which allowed BF to run. I got really excited, and started it up. I got right to the tutorial, because I forgot how to play, and it was really laggy. I didn't mind. But when I started it up again, it loaded and boom, just quit, and i had to reboot my computer. I'm at the log in screen, and it has the sign saying Problem, with no description. So i click troubleshooting, which doesn't help. And because I don't know what it does, I need any advice with what's wrong... please.

Troubleshooting -> Locating (and possibly solving) problems, usually with some extensive testing.
That's all I can help you with though, but a rough guess is that the card is still too weak or it has an old driver. I'd suggest going to the manufacturer's site and downloading the newest before anything else.

Oh crap...
I just realized this should go to gaming tech...
Oh well.
Thanks for that, though i figured. It's just when i read the thing it doesn't help, it's full of words I don't understand, but really, I'm not surprised because I'm not a computer geek, far from it. I barely know what drivers mean lol.
Thanks for that, I would rep you if I could lol, which is why I think that the rep system should be changed. Just because people are newbs doesn't mean they're n00bs.
Once again thanks.

Really sorry for the double post...

When I play a game in BF2, I play ranked to get stuff. I just started a few days ago. But I got Basic Spec Ops medal, Purple Heart medal, and Airborne Ribbon, and when I go to BFHQ I don't see any medals, ribbons, exp for next rank promo, or any lone wolf time, squad member, squad leader, commander... It's really annoying. If you know how you fix this I swear when I get rep points I'll rep you five times...when I get it...

Problem 1: Your video card is too weak.
Problem 2: You Quit the game before disconnecting frm the server. Disconnect first.
