Mysterious Game Crash

Post by Fiodis »

I have a friend, Omega, who recently contacted me about issues with his BF2 game. Whether he runs it from the disc or in Safe Mode, it always gets to the first loading screen, then crashes to his desktop without any apparent error message. He's tried a reinstall, with no luck and the same problem. Any ideas as to what could be wrong? If you need more info, please ask. I wasn't sure how much to put in, so I tossed in all he told me.

Thanks for your help.

Did it work before? If so has he updated his drivers recently? If so roll them back. If it never worked try updating drivers.

Can you send him a BF2_modtools.exe or BF2_modtools_noDVD.exe and see if it works? What are his hardware specs (and OS)?

Ah, he's off Xfire atm. I'll edit this post when I've got the specs.
