make sure there's nothing extra in your levels folder.

an extra folder, or weird files in there will cause it not to even load.

The crashing to the desktop can be caused by a number on things:

First check your mods Init.con folder so for instance in:

Battlefield 1942/Mods/bf1942

Look for the Init.con file and make sure no text like this:

game.addModPath

is in the file except for

game.addModPath Mods/bf1942

This adds a new Mod path and while attempting to play on servers it can cause crashing and or "Data Differs From Server"

If you've used Battlecraft lately, make sure that in the same Init.con file that the lines added for Battlecrafts Lightmapping get deleted I forgot exactly what they were but it will say "Lines were added by Battlecraft for Lightmapping" or something like that, Believe they are at the bottom of the file.

Make sure there is no files that are not supposed to be there in the Archives folder. ONLY RFAS should be in this folder, if an RFA got corrupted and is in there, Delete it, if you accidently overwrote an original file I suggest reinstalling. OVERWRITING IS BAD. Check each RFA to make sure its format is correct, Incorrect folder format of the rfas will cause crashing.

IE:

Objects/Handweapons <---Good

Handweapons/Objects <----Bad


Check your levels folder, No extra folders, no extra maps, no extras RFAs like Objects Texture Standardmesh in the levels folder of your mod, will cause crashing.

Make sure you go to settings and look for VideoDefault.con and make sure "renderer.allowallrefreshrates" is checked to 1 so your graphics card works with the game, as well as your monitor.

Thats all i can think of at the moment, hiped up on medication.

As far as installing goes and stopping, either means Full Harddrive, dirty or scratched disks, or that your disks are corrupted and are totally useless. I suggest uninstalling some other programs first, testing, if doesnt work then, buy a new set of expansion packs. If you can find them.

ARCHY!!! welcome back!!!
