Hi all.
Im new on the forum here, and im sorry if i dont speak English correctly.
Im 13 years old, and i live in The Netherlands.
I was looking on youtube and suddenly i saw a video of PR 0.97.
It was a long time ago that i played PR, and thats the moment that i decided to install it again. Now i have installed everything, i run the PR Shortcut, but it shows the dogtags, goes black, and gets back to the desktop.
I tryed to run bf2 normally and run it from there, but my bf2 does exactly the same.
Can someone help me please?
Greetz,
Joey

do you know what graphic card you have?
did you try to start it as administrator?

I dont know that sorry..
But the only thing i know from the graphics card is that he can handle Battlefield 3 and other same graphics games like that pretty well.
So it could handle Battlefield 2 aswell, i guess.

if it can handel BF3 it should be able to handel BF2
I think you have to wait for a reality DEV to answer they can probably help you.

I get it, i think. But there is a problem. The language from my computer is Dutch. So, do you mean with 'Window Mode', starting in minimized?
And the shortcut change, is that supposed for 'Goal' or 'Start in'?
