yeah sorry seems the stickies are out of date, I've PMed the relevant team members to see if we can get them updated

iirc you right click, set PR to xp compatibility mode and run the program as the administrator.

If you did a clean install, make sure to run the actual BF2 and load into any map first, then do what Rudd says

Don't run BF2.exe or pr.exe in compatibility mode, however run the shortcut as admin. right click-properties-compatibility-check the box that says something about run as administrator. Then you don't have to right click and hit run as admin every time.

Your answer was on page 14 (last page) of the red sticky:Read This If You Have Pr.exe problems
If you would have bothered to read it ( it was the 3rd from the top):

I'm not sure if this will solve your problem, but I was having the same issues (Win 7 64 bit) and it solved mine.

Right click on the desktop shortcut, click properties, then 'Compatibility' and check the box next to "Run this program as an administrator'

Fixed my problems right away. Good luck!
Remember the last page is newest. ;-)

When looking for answers please follow these simple steps.

#1 : Read the red stickys First.
New PR problems are rare so most answers can be found here. :thumbsup:
