If you have 2 monitors, try disabling one and see what happens.

my AVG was blocking it, the game started normally but in the background AVG prompted a "allow or deny'' screen.
Saw it for the first time now though.
allowed and it worked!

Please tell me exactly which version of AVG you are using.
I think others are having this problem too.

I'm having the exact same problem.
I was able to play vanilla bf2 and project reality before 1.0 and now I'm stuck on the black screen with spinning pr cursor after the intro. I uninstalled pr and started bf2 vanilla and now I can't login either. Just sits their trying to login forever. I uninstalled and reinstalled avg with no success. I'm sure it's avg being a *****.
edit: it wasn't my anti-virus afterall. I had to delete my account and retrieve it and it worked. Hope this helps people

I think this is the simpel solution, after i got prompted to allow the game
after turning my AVG anti virus OFF it was in my firewall list as well, so i started the game WITH avg anti-virus ON and i just got to menu etc etc etc.
Problem with this bug or whatever u want to call it.
Anti-Virus is blocking the game,
- AVG
people with the same problem but a different Anti-Virus should help the DEVS with this.
I suggest to make this a sticky or something like that so people can update u with this!
