Fix for crash to desktop

Post by LT Harrison=ORA= »

If you are crashing to desktop, with no warning, and are using Vista and DuelCore or QuadCore processor follow these instructions:

For this to work, your UAC has to be turned off. For instructions on this, go HERE.

Each time you load PR, you will have to do this:

1. Start PR.

2. At server selection screen, press Ctrl+Alt+Del.

3. Go to Start Task Manager, Processes tab, find BF2.exe and PR.

4. Right click, look for Affinity and leave CPU 0 checked, uncheck the rest.

5. Go back to play PR.

*Note* This has to be done each time you play PR if you have this problem, with exception of disabling UAC, that remains disabled until you re-enable it.


**Warning** This is not for map load crash, for that, set in-game resolution to 1024x768, and set in-game Textures to Medium, no matter what your computer's specs are.

When I set affinity in my Task Manager the two options are CPU 0 and CPU 1, which one should I uncheck?

CPU 0 should be the only one checked.
