+ | Try and run your fully patched/updated BF1942 in Windows Vista/Windows 7 and see if you are able to play a few rounds in PunkBuster Multiplayer servers without any crashes, PunkBuster kicks, or absurdly high pings.

+ | BF42 Player Grabbi (server admin/creator of Forgotten Hope Mod fan community [http://pixel-fighter.com/ Pixel-Fighter]) has developed a patch which changes some game files and registry entries to fix crashing and eliminate the need for compatibility mode in Windows Vista/Windows 7 (thus fixing PunkBuster kicks because of it). It also adds some Widescreen resolutions (up to 1600x1200) and lowers abnormally high pings on Windows Vista/7 that some have reported. This should be a last resort since it permanently changes Windows registry entries and game files. | ||

+ | =====Attempt 3: Delete Custom Profiles===== | ||
+ | If nothing worked for you and you still get the Blackscreen, just delete all your Custom Profiles. | ||
+ | They are located in X:\X\BF1942\Mods\bf1942\Settings\Profiles, and in your Documents Directory. In the Documents Directory just delete the whole Battlefield 1942 Folder. | ||

Issues fixed
Compatibility with Windows Vista/Windows 7
Note: Compatibility of the 2012 Origin release is still being determined. Some things have been changed "under the hood" in this new release and may no longer be valid. Keep this in mind, especially before doing the Pixel-Fighter patch"
Windows Vista and Windows 7 do not run Battlefield 1942 very well. Before applying any tweaks, most users on both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows encounter crashes to desktop and PunkBuster-related kicks in Multiplayer. Some users report high pings versus Windows XP as well.
Try and run your fully patched/updated BF1942 in Windows Vista/Windows 7 and see if you are able to play a few rounds in PunkBuster Multiplayer servers without any crashes, PunkBuster kicks, or absurdly high pings. If so, ignore the following. If you do experience any of the above symptoms, refer to below for some fixes until you don't anymore. With a little tinkering, 42 should run just fine on Windows Vista/Windows 7.
Attempt 1: Run the game as an Administrator in Windows 98 Compatibility mode
In your Battlefield 1942 folder, Right click BF1942.exe, select Properties, Go to Compatibility Tab
- Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and select Windows 98
- Check "Run as Administrator"
- Click OK
Compatibility mode should fix the crashes, however sometimes PunkBuster doesn't like it and boots you a few seconds after joining. If this is the case, Turn off compatibility mode and proceed to Attempt 2.
- Note, this method is recommended if you are experiencing crashes for the Origin version of the game. It is also suggested you try the other compatibility modes if Windows 98 does not fix the problem.
Attempt 2: Pixel-Fighter Windows Vista/7 Patch
BF42 Player Grabbi (server admin/creator of Forgotten Hope Mod fan community Pixel-Fighter) has developed a patch which changes some game files and registry entries to fix crashing and eliminate the need for compatibility mode in Windows Vista/Windows 7 (thus fixing PunkBuster kicks because of it). It also adds some Widescreen resolutions (up to 1600x1200) and lowers abnormally high pings on Windows Vista/7 that some have reported. This should be a last resort since it permanently changes Windows registry entries and game files.
Attempt 3: Delete Custom Profiles
If nothing worked for you and you still get the Blackscreen, just delete all your Custom Profiles. They are located in X:\X\BF1942\Mods\bf1942\Settings\Profiles, and in your Documents Directory. In the Documents Directory just delete the whole Battlefield 1942 Folder. After that, relaunch BF1942 and it should work.
