Drivers
by Guest RET.CW4.ThievingSix=US=- 3 replies

Ok so i have an Nvidia EVGA GT 240, and i have been using it to play bad company 2 for a while now, i know its not the best card and everything and when i got it it had old drivers that couldn't update. I was running BC2 on the lowest settings and i was still struggling to play the game in the height of action. So anyway recently i decided to retry updating to the latest drivers, and it worked, so i got in game and decided to see if the drivers made any difference(they used to be something like 168.80 or something) and there was a massive performance improvement, so i thought what the heck ill try this on medium, and i dident take any real performance hit, so i tried it …

Please help! Black screen when multiplayer.
by Guest RET.SSgt.Haterade=US=- 6 replies

Hello everyone. For some reason, when playing BC2, the screen will flicker between the textures and a black screen for a few seconds. When it is a black screen, however, I can still see the spotting triangles (but nothing else). It will happen maybe once out of every 10 games I play. I've never had this problem with any other program or setting; it's just when I play BC2 on multiplayer. It doesn't even happen when I'm playing single player. This is my computer: [URL='http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01701249&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN#N886']http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01701249&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R…

I don't know what is going on here. I tried setting up my new Motherboard in a new case with all my good stuff but realized that my ram wasn't compatible. So I put my computer back together it was before. Not I am having an issue where my game is figiting. I don't know what it is called so I couldn't look up the problem on google. When I am in game I am running my regular 40-60 FPS but it does not feel like it because like every 10 frames it freezes for 2. It is very annoying and I just cannot play like that. I have already ripped out half my hair. If someone know what the hell this is or what causing it...please help. Also there are new drivers out for my video card but…

Overclocking 101
by Guest RET.CW4.ThievingSix=US=- 10 replies
- 3.4k views
A member requested an explanation of overclocking so here it is. [QUOTE=Wikipedia]Overclocking is the process of running a computer component at a higher clock rate (more clock cycles per second) than it was designed for or was running at[/QUOTE] So basically over-clocking is running a computer component such as the CPU at a higher speed than the manufacturer recommendation, so that more work is done in the same amount of time, e.g. 200MHz to 220MHz, would make the CPU 20MHz faster. This extra speed can come at a price, as with anything that is pushed beyond its limits. When computer hardware is pushed beyond its limits, you may experience lock-ups and crashes, and eve…

BC2 Start Up Problems
by Guest Ret.Maj.Xander=US=- 5 replies
- 2k views
Sometimes when I try and start up BC2 the updater comes up, goes away, I can see in my processes that BC2GAME.exe is running with about 23k of memory. My xfire even says i'm running it. But nothing comes up. No splash screen, no intro video, not even sound. I've tried ending the process and starting over, only starting the game not the updater. The only thing that works is after a reboot of my whole computer I can pull it up and run it. Any ideas?
