Can't find servers.

Hi everybody!
I've just installed tha game, And I can't find any servers.
First I installed BF2 with Special Forces game from retail disk, then I tried to install patch 1.5 and it says that I already have the newest patch 1.5 installed. (strange but ok...).
Then I installed CORE and then LEVELS.
After that, I tried to play the game, works great but when I'm searching for server it's not finding my any servers.
What is the problem and what should I do?
I'm using WIN7(Also, I had this problem in the previous operation[XP]).
Thanks

Welcome to the forums. Is the game allowed by your anitivirus program?

Did you install the 1.41 patch before the 1.5? And what version of PR did you install?

No I did'nt install the 1.41 patch, because the installation already installed the game with the patch 1.41.
But when I tried to install patch 1.5 It's said that I already have it.

Don't think this is a Bug or more of a technical issue?
Try connecting via IP to a server, i think Join Via IP is an option below Update list.
Try putting the Address as : 81.19.212.37
Port: 16667 or 16567
No password

Hi !
I'm sorry for the delay, Had no time for games this week.
Ok, so this is it.
I've tried to do that, and it says that I have an older game version(something like that, don't remmember exactly the words)
Maybe I need to download a new patch 1.5 from another link?

Hmm,
Might be a worth a full in game re-install, Bf2 First-Patch (Might need 1.41+1.5) then PR Straight up to 0.87 (Core+Level's.)

Do I need patch 1.4 if I already have 1.5?

If you installed straight to 1.5 with no problems then no you won't need 1.41. When i installed I was already on 1.41 so went up to 1.5, however I'm not sure if its possible to go straight from a fresh install right up to 1.5. In that area I'd be ignorant, i do imagine however that its possible.

When I reformatted my comp the other week, I had to install both patches 1.41 and 1.5

1. Install BF2 on your computer.
2. Download & Install BF2 1.41 Patch.
3. Download & Install BF2 1.5 Patch.
4. Download & Install PR 0.87 Core.
5. Download & Install PR 0.87 Levels.
6. Update Punkbuster -
Even Balance Technical Support - Download
7. Have fun on the battlefield!
Good luck

had the same problems... Firstly I was unable to log in, deleted profiles, then I had to deal with this... this... W**k.
Really annoyed by it, I know its not a PR thing, but a W7 thing, it's caused a lot of trouble since I updated.
Reinstalling everything, pretty raging!

Everyone is having this problem.
Any idea what's going on? It's pretty serious, since it seems nobody can play PR right now.
