Topic: Crash when joining server with Battle of Yavin map

Hi guys,

I don't know why, but when I try to join any server with the Battle of Yavin map, all I had is a crash. The map is loading as usual, I join the game and when I have to choose my faction, the faction menu screen disapear and the game just crash.

I try Reloth map and it works pretty well. For further infos, I had First Strike 1.1 with the patch 1.2 for BF2142. I install your First Strike 1.2 then the latest patch 1.4 for BF2142. My comp is as following:

- Intel Core 2 Duo E6600
- Asus P5W DH Deluxe
- 4*1 GB DDR2 RAM
- 8800 GTX 768 MB with the Forceware 175.16 Drivers
- Vista Business 32 bit

So, is it a known bug (Vista compatibility) ? Or is it just me (wrong installation procedure) ?
If it's the second case, I will reattempt to reinstall the mod. But since I can load and play with other maps, it's pretty strange.

This is a known bug for Vista users with NVidia cards.  We're posting up a fix you can use for it, but ultimately, NVidia needs to better their driver support for Vista.

Then you need more RAM, sorry,  You shouldn't be running vista if you have a low amount of RAM
