966 crashes on join

I installed 966 today. BF2 itself works great, 957 worked before the patch, but now after the patch the game will crash after trying to join a server.
Twice it just CTD without any error message, the third time i got a Visual C++ runtime error.
Creating a local server works flawlessly.
PR also takes forever to launch; dunno if thats connected.

Any help is appreciated.

I dont' think that the load times are very long...


What server/map are you trying to load?

The load times are abnormably long, compared to before. I mention this, because it seems more like a bug than by design.

I've tried connecting to all kinds of servers and maps.

Try deleting your cache folder in your documents and possibly defrag the Battlefield 2 folder. IT's usually quite fragmented and could possibly be a reason.
