Posted July 1, 200718 yr I have two computers that connect to the internet though a router and cable modem. I have 5M service which seems to be fast enough for both my cousin and I to play at the same time with different legal copies of BF2142 and NS. We were playing okay when both our systems locked up in 2142. When we rebooted only one system seems to be able to play on line. The other can log in and start to load a map but stops responding after 3/4 loaded. The sound is okay. I can access the internet and the bandwidth seems to be normal. I released and renewed the ip but no go. Any ideas?
July 1, 200718 yr You might have a issue with windows, i did the same thing with mine, but i had had the same copy if windows had to buy another copy.
July 2, 200718 yr Author You might have a issue with windows, i did the same thing with mine, but i had had the same copy if windows had to buy another copy. I finally got it though my mind that the problem was my installed copy of BF2142. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, the patch and NS. Then I had problems with PB which I uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled and updated. After all that it seems to work now. I have no clue what caused the original corruption but it didn't seem that bad as I just restarted Windows. It didn't even check the hard drive for errors. Oh well, several hours wasted troubleshooting and reinstalling. Thanks for the answer......
July 2, 200718 yr ive heard of other people having problems with it loading part way and stopping not sure why though
July 2, 200718 yr Author At least I could kill it with task manager. The first time the computers both locked solid and had to be reset. My cousin's computer worked after rebooting but mine would lock ever time I loaded a map. Something got scrambled......
