Hello there, everyone. So, I recently updated to version .917, but now, whenever I start the game, it simply crashes. It shows the little title thing that says "project reality" on some dogtags, the screen goes black as if it's going to start, then it just goes back to the desktop without any kind of error message. I tried running as an administrator to no avail. I'm on windows 7 x32. Please help! I wish I could give more information; just tell me what might be helpful to know. Thanks!
EDIT: One important thing to note is that it also crashes when I try to launch just plain Battlefield 2, so it's not a problem with PR.

Moved to technical support as this is not a bug.

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end... "

"C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" +fullscreen 0
Then when you run that shortcut, it should still crash but an error will come up.
My best suggestion is to go to your "\My Documents" folder, and delete the whole Battlefield 2 directory in there. Then load up BF2, and once you log into your account in BF2 you can exit and start PR properly

Sorry about that, Jigsaw, didn't mean to put it in the wrong place; I fixed it by going into my documents, battlefield, profiles, default, then changing the resolution to 800x600@60Hz. My best guess is that I changed monitors since the last time I played, and this new monitor had an "unrecognizable" resolution. Thanks anyways!
