^ then that be one of the issues.

it has been mentioned that BC2 has incompatibilities with certain bits of hardware. & built in sound was one that popped up a few times.

& sadly the only way to fix that is to buy a creative or Asus soundcard unfortunately & disable the built in completely in the bios.

EA/DICE havent really been clear about bugs the game might have with certain hardware so its pretty much a gamble that it runs flawlessly on your system when you install the game. theres all sorts of hardware issues with the game. my games not perfect either. & thats not because of EA/DICE's inability to run functional servers. I get CTD's too but thats down to my Xonar STX being a total nobhead (it doesnt like games very much) & other bugs such as when im updating my server list & it CTDs.

so your not the only one having issues with the game crashing

So do you think this will eventually be fixed? Also, did you mention Asus and Creative because their cards work well with BC2 and other games?

Its not. I have that installed currently.

And no crashes for you? It's really odd, to say the least. Nothing else crashes, but BC2 will, for sure, within an hour. And when it does, it requires a reboot to get going again.

Simetimes I get image on screen frozen, sometimes CTD, soemtimes screen goes all white. I also noticed the TPU server crashing fairly often(and the server for sure, as I can go right back and it will be empty), so I assumed last night we gotta wait for some sort of patch...and all these issues are just the game itself.

At least, whenever this happens I don't lose any stats.

I have other soundcards, I'll paly around a bit today and see if I can get rid of it by changing sound...but sometimes I've noticed video stop, but sound keeps playing...

Who knows, Its not for me to say if it will eventually be fixed but you know the deal with EA, I suppose it will get sorted out but not for a while id say. I know that EA/DICE are aware of some of the issues as a lot of players reported them during the beta stage & are still having a good BC2 bash down at their forums.

with the creative/Asus thing - no, but they do make kick ass soundcards & even though Creative drivers are bloated as hell & they might release a borked set of drivers once in a while but otherwise they got their shit togther. & IMHO creative would be the best option for gaming as Alchemy is fairly stable & works far better in most games where as Asus's Ds3DGX that 'emulates' EAX has a fair amount of teething issues when it comes to gaming (lack of support on Asus's behalf) Xonars are vastly superior for music & movies though.

so it depends on what you want. even though Xonars CTD every now n again because of a flakey emulation engine. but when it does work it sounds amazing.

Yeah I think we'll see one soon but not until EA and DICE have worked out the backend kinks.

Ah well I disabled then re-enabled the Realtek audio device and it seems to be working fine now. Hopefully it won't come back again.

most people run with it disabled as they have an additional sound card - what you did, did nothing as it doesnt change the way the system/software handles the hardware. so its probbly gonna keep happening

The M24 does more damage than the GOL and fires faster the only gun that does more damage than the M24 is the M95.

Yeah, I understand that but hey. It was happening every 5 minutes, I did it, played 3 hours with no problems. But, I guess I should try to get an adequate sound card just in case.

I got crashes, freezes and WSODs etc quite frequently in the menus of the game, like server browser, etc, but not inmap, apparently disabling the CAT AI fixed it. But now i get lower performance, like a single 5870ish

In WineD3D we translate Direct3D functions to Windows OpenGL. WineD3D is the component of Wine that implements a replacement for Microsoft Direct3D. WineD3D works as a wrapper for Direct3D calls, and relies on OpenGL for the actual rendering job. Although primarily designed for use in Wine, WineD3D can also be used on native Windows. This has a number of advantages over using Microsoft Direct3D:

* You're free to use it for any purpose, study what it does, modify it to suit your needs, or share it with your friends.
* It can implement versions of Direct3D for Windows versions that Microsoft doesn't want to support (e.g. D3D10 on XP/2000/9x).
* Since it relies on OpenGL, it can provide Direct3D without need for specific D3D drivers (notably, on VMs like VirtualBox or QEMU).
