When asking for help,
please remember to post your:
O/S,
systems specks,
network setup
And a brief history before and after problem started.
Please describe when your CTD or problem hits and
what you have already tried.

Can you post a screen shot of the error?

MS windows XP professionall.
Core Processor 4200 2.21 GHz
2Gb RAM
Nvidia GeForce 6100(Motherboard card)

I've been playing PR for a while with my current stats and it worked fine.
I was playing Karbala and I CTD. I tried to connect again and this comes:

My guess is the internet, since its been real crappy lately. I've tried restarting the modem, repairing the connection. Reallly dont know what the problem is.

You could try:
Trash your BF2 cache files
Path:
C:\Users\'your user name here'\Documents\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\cache

Throw EVERYTHING inside the folder named cache away.
don't worry the files will be replaced with new ones when the game restarts.

Can you play BF2 ok?

There is no file named Chache. Maybe thats the problem? Should I try re-installing BF2 and PR?

Trying to re-install..

Re installed and it still doesnt work. Any thoughts?

Trash your BF2 cache files (check RED)
Path:
C:\Users\'your user name here'\Documents\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\cache

Throw EVERYTHING inside the folder named cache away.
don't worry the files will be replaced with new ones when the game restarts.

yo i had this problem a while back, i believe it has something to do with your ports, one of your ports is closed and another one is trying to send information, that's what i remember but i don't know how i fixed it, how are you connected to the internet? wireless or cable?

thepalerider · 03-14-2009, 01:13 AM

Make sure these ports are open on your router (my router 'D-link Gamers lounge' auto opens these ports for BF2)

TCP
80,
4711,
29900,
29901,
29920,
28910
44301
45301

UDP
1500 - 4999,
16567,
27900,
29900,
29910,
27901,
44301,
45301,
55123,
55124,
55215

Not sure what ports (TCP/UDP)
port for PnkBstrA = 44301
port for PnkBstrB = 45301
should be, so opened for both
