    Locking up during map change

    Could be a coincidence, but since I installed Project Reality Mod, whenever it changes maps in that game and POE, the program hands on me. I can't alt-tab out, can't ctrl alt delete, and can't do anything. Teamspeak still works though, so it's not the computer locking up. Anyone have any advice?

    Thanks

    Try running the game in windowed mode. Most of the time you will see the error message. To do this, right click on the icon you use to launch BF2 and edit the properties. In the shortcut, change +fullscreen 1 to +fullscreen 0

    I think that only works when the game CTDs...?

    I know for a fact that when it's done that to me on PR it's just the server crashing. But I can still ctrl alt delete and close the program down that way.
