A little google'ing won't hurt you. This is a common problem in BF2.


Go into My Documents/Battlefield 2/Profile/Default/ and open Video.con (open with notepad)
Change the resolution to 800x600@60Hz
Start up the game.

No need for any images, the lastest patch removes the need to use a DVD to play the game.

And mention such things earlier :p

What exactly did you do, in chronological order? Since when do you have BF2, has it worked without patch? Have you installed any mods before patching? You are running bf2.exe as admin, right? You have not installed PR already, correct?

No need to call me Sir :p

Here's the current patch: AusGamers Files - Battlefield 2 Patch v1.50 Final

But you need 1.41 (which you already downloaded if I understood that correctly) before you can use that one.

By the way, are you sure your BF2 is 1.0? If you bought it recently, chances are it might already be 1.41 or 1.5.

Yep, get 1.41 from any site, and after you've used that patch, use the 1.5 one.

That's right...

If you're still having problems try deleting the \my documents\battlefield 2\ folder. That should reset all your settings.

Just to clear up... Are you having trouble installing the 1.5 patch or haven't you tried installing that patch yet?

You should try to patch all the way up to 1.5 don't even bother trying to play just yet. But the short answer is yes you should.

Once you have 1.5 working, you don't need the image anymore. If you can't get 1.5 to work, you'll need the image/CD/whatever. Where did you download BF2 if I may ask, by the way?
