Sounds to me you haven't updated at all. What method you used for updating? Downloaded archive and extracted or you used Updater?

Perhaps Windows doesn't let him extract stuff in the program-files directory?

I extracted to

Program Files (x86)/ EA Games/ Battle Field 2



I think maybe something is wrong with 7 zip. Can i just copy and paste the files and get the desired results?

If you go to the PR directory, there's a file called "prv.version". Open that with notepad. Make sure it says "Beta 1". Then run the updater again, let's hope it works.

It says Beta 1.

I tried the updater and it says server is down.

I updated and checked the file version. It now says Beta 2. I havent tried it yet in game.

Im still not sure what went wrong with the manual installation.

Now i got finals to study for. Ill let you know if it works in game when i try it.
