    Random Crashes

    Lately (last couple days) Battlefield 2142 has been crashing on me randomly. Generally it is about 5 minutes after I join a game, but sometimes as few as 5 or so seconds after joining. I get a ctd and no error report. I have no idea what is causing this, anyone got advice?

    I used to have this problem, with great frequency, but it has somehow resolved itself possibly due to the numerous times I've reinstalled the game and/or patches.

    Maybe it's the new patch, who knows? It doesn't matter for me right now cause my whole computer's down. I'll search the web for solutions to the crashing issue, as I now have little to do with my normally bf2142 time

    I used to crash like every minute I was in the game and it stopped, then started up again, but I did this and it never occured again!

    It's due to the dual proccessor! What you need to do is load the game up 'til your in the options start up page then alt tab out, ctrl alt del to bring up your task manager, then goto processes and right click on the bf2142.exe. Once there goto "set affinty" and when this come's up make sure that the only thing checked is cpu0 make sure all others are unchecked, then play with out getting kicked for some reason.
    To set the processor affinity to only a single processor on a more permanent basis;
    You use a program called imagecfg.exe It should be in your Windows install. If it isn't, you can download it from several places (eg http://www.reality-xp.com/support/kn...ebase/1006.htm ).
    You then enter these commands (Start Run CMD). The first undoes any previous affinity Windows has set. This step isn't necessarily needed, it's just good practice. The next assigns the process to one CPU or the other. file.exe is the program you wish to change the affinity for e.g. BF2142.exe.
    Code:
    imagecfg -u file.exe
    imagecfg -a 0x1 file.exe
    0x1 is CPU 0
    0x2 is CPU 1
    Imagecfg does not seem to recognize folders with spaces in it like "C:\Program Files". To get by this copy the Imagecfg.exe file to that directory and exclude the directory /path.

    Resolves Random CTD.
    Hope it works
