God damnit. 6 times. [B]SIX TIMES[/b] I've been trying to install this piece of shit and it keeps freezing my PC, making it so I have to use the [highlight]Dreaded 5-second countdown shutdown sequence of computer-breaking dooooooom[/highlight]. But anyway, I keep trying to start it. Any mirrors, hell I'm even using a torrent to download it ([b]Mods: It's a legit version that's put on the torrents for faster downloading. D: do not ban :h:[/b]). Example. *install a BF2 1.5 patch, is sent to the desktop ready to install it* *Double-click the .exe to start 1.5 patch for BF2* *waits* Well it's delaying again. Time to goto facepu-wait...hang on...*click*... :geno: *click click click furiously* afjnfakJMFNWF My computer freezes and never unfreezes. It just...crashes. Help, emergancy :gonk:
I might have had this problem, there are fixes somewhere if you google it
Just try waiting? My friend was updating BF2 on his laptop and since the patch is 2GB it took a bit for it to pop up so I suggest just let it do it's thing. Now his computer never did freeze. Random questions: Specs? (if using vista/win7) have you tried right clicking -> run as admin? have you patched to version 1.4(or 1.41 can't remember the #)
Make sure you're patching from 1.41 to 1.5. Try reinstalling the game and the patches, see if that helps.
