Steam "BF2.exe has stopped working"
Posted: 2010-06-08 00:08
Hi guys, I've tried trawling the internet for this one before posting here, but nothing works, or problems aren't the same as mine..
The problem:
I recently brought BF2 on Steam as I had just moved over to Win7 and couldn't find my game disc so thought it would be easier to get a digital version.
Initial install went fine and I played for one evening, however when I went to play the game again, the game will not start. The screen goes black, goes back and forth to desktop a few times and then I get told that BF2 has stopped working.
Before doing anything I just did a complete reinstall as I thought perhaps it was an issue with that, but after doing so the problem still remains.
I've just tried deleting the Battlefield 2 folder in my docs, which briefly solved the problem but as soon as I retrieve my account or even make a new one, the game crashes about 30 seconds later.
I also tried updating my drivers, but that made no difference either.
Any ideas or solutions greatly appreciated. It's really annoying me that it DID work but now isn't
System specs;
Windows 7 x64 Ultimate
4GB ram
Intel Pentium E2200 Dual @ 3.2GHz
ATI Radeon HD 4600
