BF 1942 forum
For those that can't even load the game ...

I am one of those that have lost hours of sleep & suffered frustration beyond belief at not being able
to even get BF1942 to load beyond the title screen.
After a couple of os re-installs & re-formats, every driver update & backdate possible, the
uninstallation & reinstallation of every component in my system and of course I have tried every EA recommended config & video adjustment - I have finally got it working!
What I did was to simply right mouse click on the BF1942 icon, select the compatability tab & select
"Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows 98 / ME". I am using WinXP of course - so it wont help those using Win98 or ME.
My system is:
Athlon 2000 XP
Asus A7V8X (KT400)- using on-board sound (latest VIA 4 in 1 drivers)
512 mb Kingmax PC2400 DDR
Winfast Ti4200 GF4 w/latest beta drivers
WinXP Pro.
Not sure why this is happening with XP - but I hope this may help some of you.
