problems with battlefield 2

[MetalMilitia]

The game is incredibly buggy right now and dispite claiming to only require a GPU with pixel shader 1.4 support (DX 8.1) many people are having problems running the game on anything but DX9 hardware.

You should try completley removing your video drivers (use driver cleaner in safemode after uninstalling) and installing a different version from the last one you tried. Even a slightly older version; im on 5.4 cats and all is well.
