Try google for "BF2 vista fix"
Thats usually how I solve my problems
(also: you have to patch BF2 all the way to the latest version to have a chance at it working with vista...)

I don't have time now (bed time =3)
It's patched to 1.41

Try manually installing and updating PB, I've heard this has been a problem.

Also try turning texture detail to low in options.

Try right clicking bf2 icon > properties > compatability > run in compatability mode for xp (sp2)
Done all that.

Just reinstalled bf2 to with all expansions. I have set punkbuster to scan every 500 seconds and when it does scan, my game completely freezes and there is nothing I can do except kill it in task manager.

tried clearing cache, updating punkbuster, updating video card, nothing has worked!!

Help?

I had this problem the first time i ran bf2 on my new PC.

-Run bf2, login then alt-tab to desktop
-open task manager, processes tab, find bf2
-right click on bf2, set affinity
-this should open a new window with a shitload of little boxes, and cpu1 cpu2 cpu3 and cpu4 will all be ticked, untick them all except cpu1, apply.
-restart bf2, good to go....hopefully

Assuming this is your problem, it should work. Only problem is you have to do it before most games, as it never stays that way

I've tried 800X600 all low settings with AA on and all high at the maximum res you can set in game, whatever that is.

Everything else is fine, never had this kind of problem with any other game before.

Have you tried turning your sound off to see if it's a sound card/onboard sound problem? (disable it in device manager temporarily then run BF2)
