BFBC2 causing a bsod?

[NotYourHero]

Not asking for bsod help, just if anyone has got a bsod randomly while running it. On w7 ultimate x64. I play it no problem but twice randomly it bsod'd once during a launch and once at the main menu when I was about to search for a online match.

If only they were not the latest. Maybe next time ask if they are or not?

Nice attitude. You can see the help rushing in can't you?


As it happens, I know the answer - but I'll just keep it to myself.

That's fine then. I have no attitude, I just dislike when people make assumptions. If that's too much to handle then I'm sorry for you. It wasn't really ment to sound like that. Also BFBC2 installs DX when it installs, or at least mine did. Everything is up to date as it should be.

Unfortunately that's the problem - BFBC2 has had 'issues' with catalyst drivers since 10.6 >

The last version that didn't cause BFBC2 to crash was 10.5 / 10.5a.

It's been 6 months - I wouldn't hold your breath.

:s That bad eh? This is the first game I have ever bought that actually had a issue with ati drivers. Well, at least it doesn't crash all the time.

Afraid so.

For reasons only known to the ATI driver team, they fixed all the issues only to break them again with later releases which to this day, are still broken

yea that was bad fixing BFBC2 only to break what they fixed when the next catalyst was released and they did that "fix then break BFBC2 pattern" for like 2 or 3 catalyst releases in a row, craziest thing I have seen with drivers and a particular game :shock:

 

[BugMeister]

it's been running fine on the latest drivers for me..
no consolation, I guess - but have you tried installing the
latest Crossfire profiles, as well as the driver..

- it's supposed to optimise the GFX card for the game??

I've also been exceptionally lucky in that I've never had any of the usual ATI driver hiccups, no matter the version. I've only noticed that some sets ran the game crisper than others.

Yup the ATI driver team suck not that I give a rats anymore..I just bought 2x460's because I'm on my second 5850 which refuses to play nice with BC2...runs WoW ok but then any card will. Doubt I'll buy ATI again..used to be good but since AMD bought them they have gone downhill driverwise it appears
