Critical failure
OK here my prob. I resently installed windos xp on my cpu and formated the hard drive in the process. After reinstalling xp I intalled back varius progem and BF 2142. Now when I enter BF everything is fine but when I join a server after the load the instant I click on join game my cpu gets a critical failure and restart. I searched the net on where I could find the error log for the critical failure but this was in vain (maybe I just didnt saw it).
I have run out the ns possibility (had ns before but not anymore)
I test my ram memory
I verified my directx version (up to date)
I verified my video card driver (up to date)
I tested the game in single player and the same thing happens just not as fast (it's not instantaneous but it takes like 3-4 sec)
I reinstalled the game and repatched it
So if anyone as any idea on what could be the source of the prob hardware/software plz bring light to my lost soul. Can't play bf and this is pissing me off pretty badly.

Re: Critical failure
Odd. Is it too much of a hassle to reinstall the OS again?

Re: Critical failure
Right click My Computer, go to properties, go to advanced, click on the hardware tab, and click on device manager. Are there any devices showing that have a little caution sign beside them?

Re: Critical failure
When you formatted the hard drive, did you do a quick format, or a full format? Did you format in NTFS or FAT32? Originally Posted by HellHarry

Re: Critical failure
formated to NTFS (since it was what i had before and worked fine) and it was a quick format (like I always do)
