Yes and i've patched cod2 1.3 patch. I've been playing BF2 FEAR CSS DODS and they all run great. Im running vista 64bit does that have anything to do with it?

I don't know to change compatibilty in vista, but in XP:1) Right Click on the shorcut icon on your desktop2) click ''Properties''3) Go to the tab to the right, which says ''compatibility''4) Change to XP.

Turn off anti-aliasing in the game.
this is what i see
[QUOTE=''Extelleron'']Turn off anti-aliasing in the game.[/QUOTE]AND we have a WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that worked!!!!!!!! but why??? lame
Well im out of ideas...other than a reinstall of COD2. And if that doesn't work, than i only hope it will when the service pack comes out. Good luckEDIT: Just read the previous post. Cool, enjoy COD2.

now i need to get bf2 and PB not to kick me out all the time. :)
