So i've had and played bf2142 for a very long time and absolutely love it. I took a break from playing it for a while and now when i try to start it up i get the bf2142.exe has encountered and has to close. I get this error right after i start up the game. it goes to a black screen and then flashes and back to desktop. I can't think of anything that would have made this game unplayable now.

oh by the way im running xp if that helps?
It's because we can't think of anything.
Do check your drivers.
go to my documents and find the folder "Battlefield 2142" and delete it. Once you delete that relaunch the game and don't forget to reset your audio/video/control settings as this resets that.
If that doesn't work I guess you may have to reinstall. I've had many issues with this game in the past.
But you are sure you havn't changed anything? New monitor video card driver anything?
i did switch monitors. but how could that change anything?
if you were running at say 1680x1050 and you switched to a 1080p monitor, if the 1080p monitor doesn't support 1680x1050 then the game won't open and you can't change the res. It may go to a black screen and go back to desktop. Deleting the 2142 folder in my documents should reset all the settings so you can open the game to change them.
