Hmm, I think I will have to try your suggestion Lea Nikkaya, now to find a headset. Thanks.

Hello MechaG2, I have the exact same problem as you, I was gone for a week and of course everyone is online:). Any way I see you already got some suggestions, I tried that sound trick, too no avail.

I was out camping for a few days so I wasn't able to get back to you. My BFII CD was horribly scratched all around the edge (now i think this was my old computers doing because i could play the game before on the old comp. but one day i hit the disk tray, hard, when BFII was sliding in, after this none of my games would play on the old comp. everything would go horribly wrong with the graphics and the only prob. i could seem to find was the nV4_disp. driver, this is old news though because that PC is gone) I thought the scratches was the source of this problem, but i already had the disk resurfaced and reinstalled the game a couple of weeks ago.

As far as I know my friend has a Gateway computer, pretty sure windows 7/might be Vista, maybe a couple months under a year old, I don't remember the model so I'll give him a call later.

On the lighter side, don't you love it when things fix and solve themselves your comment on your problem reminded me of StarWars The Force Unleashed II, I was stuck on a stupid "challenge" because i wanted to Ace the game on my 360, i left it for 5 months, came back and beat it on the first try

Thanks, DarthDustino

When the the battle loads all it does is go to solid black flickers and pops to the desktop. I have not downloaded any editions except for update1.1 which was a long time ago, which i don't even remember updating, the computer just probably did it. I have tried reinstalling the game 4 times, no difference. Yes I am using a computer. Yes I am using windows 7 HP. Yes I have reinstalled. I have TONS of space on my drives, both C and Storage, 20GB + in C and 600GB+ in storage. It could have something to do with the graphic reader, i don't know it's new, newer stuff tends to fail pretty hard faster than the good old old stuff, i did have a company called Northern Computer Innovations Ltd. custom make my PC because it's a hell a lot cheaper than buying some random package at a store. I Looked thru my computer and it says that everything is fine, heh, thats what my old computer said, before it decided to die on me, 3 years ago. Although, is it possible that the disk might just be ffed, like corrupted by the old computer because when I'd go to play BFII on the older one the battle would pixelate horribly and crash my actual computer, but that had something to do with the Niv_4 disp. just thought i'd might mention that, also the disk wouldn't work at my friends PC either, exact same probs.?????????

Thanks for your time.

I changed all of the games graphics to low and fooled around with the resolution for awhile. Unfortunately, this didn't help it. As for details, what do you need?
I tried playing as administrator and it still crashed.
And what is comp. mode? it sounds familiar and I think I was checking that out last night, but that was 18 hours without sleep, it's a little fuzzy. So, I will not be home for 2-3 days after tomorrow morning. Thx for the help so far.

Oh, i just remembered how to get to compatibility mode, but I'm not sure which one to pick??
Thanks. DD

Thanks for the info, but I have already looked at the sys. check before and I surpass the requirements. I also have already installed Direct X during the installation prompt. Thanks anyways though.

Hello, I have just recently got a new computer and wanted to download a few of my older games, including the classic BFII. The game installed without a hitch and i can access the all the game menus but as soon as I try to play either Instant Action or Campaign, the game spontaneously crashes back to the desktop with no error message. WTF!!??. I was searching online and found a few people with similar problems but not quite what I had. any help would be TREMENDOUSLY appreciated as I REALLY need my BFII fix.
