    Battlefield 1942 Technical Help Needed FAST!!!!!!

    I am haveing trouble with battle field 1942. the game works fine as in booting up, but when you get in a game the screen is black and blue, all you see is the ground and sandbag walls, and the wireframe outline of the vehicles.
    i called EA and they can't figure out what is worg with it.

    My comp specs are.
    -AMD Athlon XP 2200+ Processor*
    -512MB DDR 333MHz (PC2700) Memory
    -Two 120GB (240GB Total) ATA/100 Hard Drives
    -32x12x48 CD-RW
    -16x DVD ROM
    -3.5" 1.44MB Floppy Drive
    -6-1 All-In-One Digital Media Card Reader/Writer
    -GeForce4 Ti 4600 AGP Video Card with 128MB and TV out
    -USR 56K v.92 Fax/Modem
    -Sound Blaster Audigy PCI Card
    -Cambridge SoundWorks FSP1600 Speaker System with Subwoofer
    -Intel Pro 10/100 Network Adapter
    -Microsoft Keyboard with Internet Quick Keys
    -Microsoft Optical Scrolling Mouse

    Its practly an alienware, there is no reasonwhy it shouldn't work, if any of you know how to take screenshots tell me please.

    I already call EA they couldnt help so i thought maybe any of you could halep, they will be responding again within the next day or to

    Update video card drivers. Probably the only thing I can think of.

          It's your PC. It's running the game too well

          see if you can find a patch. Possibly a bad copy of the game. Try uninstalling it and the reinstalling it.

              I would uninstall the game, delete ALL folders, then delete all keys in reg that came from the game, then reinstall.

              If that doesn't work, i'll trade you for my athlon 900mhz!

                Do you have the patch that came out the day the game was released? You should. Try downgrading drivers- go to the 30's from N-Vidia. Some people said they have problems with the 40 drivers. The other option is buying Unreal Tounrnament 2003 because it's better. :-)

                  I dont mean to assume you are an idiot, but if you set the ingame settings to the lowest quality thats what you will see.

                  Did you adjust the video settings to something higher? Also remember to hit the "Save" button BEFORE moving to another "Config" screen. You cannot set all your settings, then click save, then return to the game. You have to hit it between every screen change when you are flipping through the config options.
