I installed Battlefield 2 with the new 1.5 patch yesterday. Whenever I'm playing now, if I minimize the game, the game crashes to a black screen when I try to reopen the window. It's the same result if I press alt-tab, ctrl-esc, or ctrl-alt-del.

There's still sound playing in the background, but I have to stop the program using the task manager to get rid of the blank black screen.

Any idea what this could be?

Their was a 1.5 patch? :thumbsup:

I have 2 guesses.

1. Anti-Hack measure. Some people do it.

2. BF2.exe doesn't like you.

If I am helping you and I do not respond within 24 hours, please send me a PM. :)

well see I never had this problem before...so bf2.exe clearly liked me more before the patch.

because if someone IMs me on xfire or a windows update pops up, I have to ctrl-alt-del, restart the game, wait for the long login, rejoin the game, and hope it doesnt happen again. and they've got to have better anti-hack measures than that...
