Start PRLauncher
Click Options
Click Reset Profiles Blue Button on bottom left.
Click Yes to confirm.
Instead of importing your vanilla BF2 profile, retrieve your profile using the GameSpy profile retrieval option.

Did you upgrade from windows 8 to windows 8.1 ?
Are you running on a notebook with switchable graphics?

'[R-COM wrote:LITOralis.nMd;1960469']You need to use
nvidia control panel _>program settings-> add
to add the PRBF2.exe file to be forced to use the discrete GPU,

Here is an example of forcing the InterVideo WinDVD program to use the discrete GPU... follow the same steps but add PRBF2.exe

Procedure to add an application to NVIDIA Optimus Technology?s dedicated video 3D settings - ThinkPad.

PRBF2.exe is located in same directory as BF2.exe

1. Launch the NVIDIA Control panel by right clicking the desktop and selectingNVIDIA Control Panel
   
   
   
   
   Select Manage 3D Settings from top left pane.Select Program Settings from right pane.
   
   
2. use the menu pull down in option 1 to locate the PR applications.
   Click Add to add the application to the pull down menu list.
   
   NOTE: If the application is NOT listed, then remove the check mark by Show only Programs found on this computer and then use the browse function to locate the application?s installation folder and executable. Click Add to add the application to the pull down menu list.
   

   Code: Select all

   [b]Default location in Windows Vista/7/8/2008/2012 X64 for Origin installations:[/b]
   
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 2 Complete Collection\mods\pr\bin\PRLauncher.exe
   
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 2 Complete Collection\mods\pr\bin\PRMumble\PRMumble.exe
   
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 2 Complete Collection\PRBF2.exe
   
   [b]Default location in Windows XP/Vista/7/8 32 Bit X86 for Origin installations:[/b]
   
   C:\Program Files\Origin Games\Battlefield 2 Complete Collection\mods\pr\bin\PRLauncher.exe
   
   C:\Program Files\Origin Games\Battlefield 2 Complete Collection\mods\pr\bin\PRMumble\PRMumble.exe
   
   C:\Program Files\Origin Games\Battlefield 2 Complete Collection\PRBF2.exe
   
   [b]Default location in Windows Vista/7/8/2008/2012 X64 for Steam installations:[/b]
   
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\battlefield 2\mods\pr\bin\PRLauncher.exe
   
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\battlefield 2\mods\pr\bin\PRMumble\PRMumble.exe
   
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\battlefield 2\PRBF2.exe
   
   [b]Default location in Windows XP/Vista/7/8/2008/2012 for Steam installations:[/b]
   
   C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\battlefield 2\mods\pr\bin\PRLauncher.exe
   
   C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\battlefield 2\mods\pr\bin\PRMumble\PRMumble.exe
   
   C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\battlefield 2\PRBF2.exe
   

3. Once the application or executable has been located and added, then use option 2 to select the specific video subsystem that you want assigned to the application. Integrated video is Intel Video Mode and Discrete video is NVIDIA Video mode.
   PRLauncher.exe, PRBF2.exe, PRMumble.exe and BF2.exe ALL MUST USE THE DISCRETE GPU.
   DO NOT SELECT INTEGRATED!!
   
   USE THE DISCRETE GPU FOR PR.
   
   SELECT DISCRETE!!
4. At this point the launch PRLauncher and see if PRLauncher and PRBF2.exe application launches correctly and performs as expected.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   Notes:Within the NVIDIA control panel there is an option to add a menu item to the Desktop Context Menu which will allow for any application to be run in Integrated or Discrete mode via the right click Contest menu. Add this functionality via the NVIDIA Control Panel. The second item in the list enables this function,while the last item in the list allows for a system tray notification balloon.This notification allows for quick visual clue as to which graphics adapter is enabled.
   
   
   
   This action will results in the following menu choices for applications located via Start->All Programs Start Button.
