Mumble doesn't link. PR won't start if mumble run as admin

Post by TheH4mm3r »

When running Mumble normally it just doesn't link to BF2.exe.
When trying to run as admin, PR just doesn't start. It shows the splash picture, screen flashes black a bit and then it crashes.

Windows XP Professional 32bit SP3
E5200 2.5Ghz
GeForce 550TI GTX
2GB ram

EDIT:
This problem was driving me nuts, and I was about to install windows 7 in hopes that I could play PR normally, but one last random google search fixed it for me.
I removed the files in C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\movies for the game to load faster, and mumble actually needs them in there in order to link. As soon as I copied them back it magically linked again.

Please add this to the mumble FAQ or something. Thanks.
