o_0 no offense but while reading your..paragraphs. I imagine you sitting in a chair, baseball cap turned to the side, spliff in mouth and loads of gold...anyway back to the problem at hand.

I would be inclined to say that running a game such as BF2 on a laptop will be quite a task, especially as that one doesnt have a dedicated graphics card (?)


Have you played BF2 on this laptop before?
Does the laptop play any other games without problems?
Have you checked your temperatures?
Updated all the drivers you can?
Turned Graphics settings down?
Sometimes changing the sound output can help.

When it crashes to desktop do you get any error message's?
Is it at a certain point?
What operating system? - If you are on Vista, try using compatibility mode. Not sure how to do this on Vista, if it's still the same right click the icon, compatibility mode then select another OS such as XP.

that's the specs and yes i ran alot of games tf2 warrock, combat arms, arma 1 , half life series, loads of games and it runs bf2 nice intill i get kicked to desktop so :O

[Disturbedguy]

Ok we know its kicking you to desktop, but is it at a certain point? Map loading? Selecting something? Anything?

[Jasp]

Also have you just installed the game? do you get any errors on crash?

[soccerpro18]

ok so sorry, ok well i have been playing thre weeks it happened about a week ago, now i get into the game play for a bit play in karkand and then like between10-40 mins kicked to desktop no loading maps works all that works just when in game it does that soo sorry forgot to say that.

[danroyle]

cant see operating system on your specs are you using vista if yes run it in compatibility mode if not dunno, but mine always used to desktop on vista home until i ran compatibility mode

[Jasp]

As above + update your punkbuster http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=dl-bf2.php download the pbsetup file and run it, click check for updates and it should automatically download any updates if needed.

if his punkbuster is out of date it kicks you when you join servers.

[Jasp]

Depends on the server, iv'e been booted anywere from instant to 20mins down the line of playing.

[soccerpro18]

k guys i dont think its my punkbusters. i updated it way before it ran great like two weeks ago and since then its been crashing i really hope i can find the problem.

[Disturbedguy]

Well what did you do two weeks ago?
Install?
Update?
Remove?

[mycarsavw]

Are you patched to the latest release (1.41 IIRC)

What errors are you seeing, if any?

Run it in windowed mode to see if that helps - add "+menu 1 +fullscreen 0 +szx 1152 +szy 864" to your desktop shortcut and change the 1152 & 864 to suit your screen size.
