I was playing bf2 last night no problem with my old CRT monitor and I updated to a Samsung Syncmaster 244t. I am hooked to the DVI connection on my ATI Radeon 9600 pro. At first I thought maybe the resolution and that didnt change anything, Then I tried installing the monitor drivers and that didnt do it. I also installed the updated video card drivers but it still crashes. This is a sick monitor and I paid next to nothing for because someone wrote broken on the box. Please help me fix this. Thanks

I dont remember exactly how to fix that but something about deleting your bf2 folder in My Docs and reinstalling bf2 I think. Anyone remember the exact solution?

it shows the entry screen, the one that first shows up and then after that the screen goes black like it is loading and then it shuts down at that point

Try resetting all of your bf2 settings in BFHQ

hmm, well, inside the bf2 folder in MY Docs, there are some files that store your video settings for the game. That's what needs to be deleted so that next time you load the game, it recreates those files with the default settings. I can't remember which files though,. Sorry

and delete the video.con files

Video.con.

Just delete all but General and Controls.

>> ALSO DELETE IN DEFAULT <<

Yes, delete all of those profiles and it will create a new one for you. Leave the folder called Profile though. Evrytime you click "save" after changing a setting, it creates a new file so they are safe to delete.
