Re: FS frustration

Re: FS frustration

If its Vista, then make sure that BF2142 is running with Administrative rights.

Right click on whatever executable you use to play 2142/First Strike

Click "Run as Administrator"

This solves about 75% of Vista PB issues.

Re: FS frustration

this is how i did it...


Install 2142 deluxe ed.

Start d-loading patch 1.4
start d-loading FS v 1.1

1 hr later, decided to check if 2142 installed ok, and to my chagrin found out that the disc i bought WAS version 1.4.

Stopped d-loading patch 1.4, installed FS.

FS told me i didn't have patch 1.25 so i ingnored it, and everything works fine.
