problems with Dice games - BF1942 and BF2
hi,
i pretty much can't play BF1942 or BF2. I checked tonight I was getting 2-3 fps. I have P4@3GHz, 1g of RAM, Radeon 9800PRO. Both games used to run fine. I have latest ATI drivers. Where should I look? I can play CS:S, DoD or Guild Wars fine. Thank you -maxnik |

If it was just BF2 I'd suggest lowering your texture and lighting levels to medium with 1 Gig of RAM and the 9800 Pro. Try lowering the settings of these and perhaps turn off anti-aliasing, and see if this fixes your problem. I don't actually know why you'd have trouble with BF1942 though...

Also, there are issues with the Catalyst 5.7 drivers & BF2. I had terrible graphics issues until I rolled back to 5.6 - no problems after that... |

Right here:

i found a 5.6 Omega driver - was very unstable. I went back. I reinstalled latest 5.7 from ATI. However I think Xfire causes this problem. I've been shutting it down and game BF2 great.
