Post subject: Problem with BF2142

I have a Dell Dimension 8400. 3.2 GHz proc, 2 GB RAM. XP Media Center Edition. Logged in as Local Adminstrator.

Periodically when playing BF2142, I get bounced back to desktop and the Application Event Log entry reads:

Event Type: Error
Event Source:
Event Category: None
Event ID: 0
Date: 12/29/2006
Time: 6:44:29 PM
User: N/A
Computer: OFF-D45T5R61
Description:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: 6.

Nothing else that I find in the groups or my crash analyzers tell anything. Even EventID.Net shows nothing.

Any help would be welcome. I have all the latest drivers for my devices in my system.

Without an event source that is going to be difficult to track down, ID
0 will mean different things depending upon the source, but is usually
the base error for a source.

I seem to recall some other BF2142 players saying that they had this
problem when one of the patches was applied (1.05/1.06 ?), particularly
if they had previously had the demo installed.

Answer for some seems to be uninstall, use a registry cleaner or
manually get rid of all BF references in the registry, then re-install
and only use the newer full patches (not 1.01->1.04->1.05->1.06, etc).

Others have suggested disabling EAX if you use it, and disable VoIP
(actually disable in-game VoIP comes up a lot as a fix that stops CTDs).

Hi, i'm new here, i'm Hellblazer and i can help you with your problem.

If you don't want to use your mic. Follow my instustions.

What you need to do is log on to BF as normal, in the top left had corner click on options:

Then click on audio:

Then disable voice over IP and you should be reet (no more crashing)
