| Guest | Battlefield 2 Special Forces I installed Battlefield 2 Special Forces, and first found out I needed the upgrade before it would run on Vista RTM. Now, I can play regular BF2 quite nicely, but BF2 Special Forces is so choppy, that game play is impossible. I have a 3.0ghz CPU, 2 gigs or ram, and a BFG Geforce 6800GTOC video card. Now this should more than handle the game play, but BF2 Special forces is literally unplayable. Anyone else have this problem, and maybe find a way to solve it?? -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

I tried using a set of 96.85 drivers, but they do not give me a 1440x900 resolution as an option. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

| Guest | Re: Battlefield 2 Special Forces You could try the recently leaked nVidia drivers from guru3d/laptopvideo2go. Other than that there's not much else to say as it's probably a driver issue and that won't be officially solved until Vista launches (in my opinion, anyway). Regards, Mark |

| Guest | Re: Battlefield 2 Special Forces But I'm not playing on a laptop, I am playing on a desktop. Will these drivers work on a desktop as well??

| Guest | Re: Battlefield 2 Special Forces Yes. They will work. You may need to use a modded .inf file. Instructions can be found on the laptopvideo2go forums. Mark |

| Guest | Re: Battlefield 2 Special Forces I discovered it is only the night missions that are causing problems. Also, The drivers you suggested did nothing. As a matter of fact, they wouldn't even allow me to run my 19" widescreen at its native resolution of 1440x900. I ditched them, and guess I'm stuck with only the day missions.
