Battlefield 2142 error

xymz, try deleting your profiles folder in 'My Documents/Battlefield 2142 Demo/' That has been known to help with this issue, just need to do all your settings again :)
 
Hey can anybody help me when i click the icon to launch bf 2142 an error pops up reading EC : 5570 can anybody help.
ps i got the game off of the ea downloader.
 
I'm getting the same error as well. The funny thing is that it worked for me before, but for some reason I couldn't apply the patch. I uninstalled the game, reinstalled it, and since then I've been getting this error code.
The window simply says

EC: 5570
 
same problem, reinstalled couple time, no use. EC : 5570 still pops up. not able to launch the game. i hope someone can help.
 
Let's see if this works Mikey. Good work though on trying to figure this pile of shit out.
 
What?

did u get it to work mikey?? did u install the game first then download the new ea downloader? or how?
 
Hey Mike!! Awesome work, got it to work. So yes MrMorelli, do what he said, and it'll work.
 
I offer up my 2 cents here and say the one error that every BF2142 owner has in common is that you made the error of actually getting the game and installing it. :roll:

Oh, there IS something you CAN do... provided that EA has more than 1 server, serving up this file...

:)

* If you can make a determination of this, and between the two of you, you SHOULD be able to do this? It's doable/gettable...

First thing to note: You have to remember - DNS servers are @ work resolving the addy for their D/L server(s) & odds are, they have more than 1 @ work for this...

Secondly: Using PING commands @ a DOS prompt? You can compare the IP addresses BOTH of you are using (ping the d/l server itself)... & get the file path on said server if possible from your browser.

(Here I would STRONGLY wager, that you both are getting the d/l file from 2 diff. servers, one being saturated for connections &/or bandwidth)

Thirdly/lastly: Once you have determined that you are getting the file from 2 diff. servers? Change your D/L URL & have @ the file where it CAN be gotten from!

(Again, because odds are, you may be, one from one EA server closer to HIS DNS from his BSP/ISP, & the other from another EA server closer to HIS DNS server from his BSP/ISP)...

APK

P.S.=> Think about that, see my point... doable! apk

OK, I think I just blew a head gasket reading this. Excellent info though I bet. :respect:

It has been doing that for me also usally once a day ill be playing and the noise will start to glitch and then crash. Then i just reload the game and play but then its fine for the rest of the day so its ok with me. But if anybody might know what is causing this problem plz help.
 
Im having trouble with this game now myself.. downloaded punkbuster and pinnacle game profiler to control the xbox360 controller. I try to load the game and sometimes it stalls out and goes to the windows error report. other times it lets me get into the games but it wont let me make a game.. it will just boot me out of hte whole game if i try to host a lan game.. but i can join a lan game np.. my brother is on the same touter with me and he gets on the lan and hosts it fine.. any ideas? i'd appreciate any info.. thanx all... im on xp by the way.

I cant even find this EA downloader to redownload it at all.. where did u guys download it from please? iv'e tried everything else on this thread and nothing has helped.. I still get booted out of the game and it completely destroys my internet connection causing me to reboot the whole thing and all or it just wont even:banghead: work..
 
For BF2142 the only way to usually get things to run right is to re-install... ...and a few quick hints!!! :

-Make sure there is no virus protection running (seriously)
-No screen saver running! (the only things to save are the lives of your fallen comrades... FIGHT HARDER SOLDIERS!!!)
-Windows up to date? (Linux? Wrong forum.)
-The latest DirectX9.0c? http://www.microsoft.com/windows/directx/default.mspx
-Make sure your video card drivers are installed correctly (do you have problems with other
games?) If not follow ATi/nVidia instructions on how to uninstall and install drivers at thier respective websites: www.ati.com www.nvidia.com
-Make sure there is no spyware running in the background (a good program to rid your system and is free is Spybot S/D)
-CAN YOU HANDLE IT!?!?!? (Does your system meet the games requirements [I noticed many of you are new here and do not have your specs listed], I deffinately recommend 2GB of memory no matter what else you are using.
-Try overclocking/let off the throttle: Is your system O/C'd? Chances are it's not stable and it's running your soldier straight into your FSB wall. Ouch! On the other hand perhaps giving your FSB a little nudge north will give you the boost you need to get the game off of "slideshow" mode.
-OC'ing your video card could help I love :D ATi Tool found here at TPU!
-And alas, the complete Windows clean install as to where I shall say google search for a tweak guide, and happy installing.:D

Make sure the port isn't being blocked on the router. Look on the networking forum because I lack most knowlege in that department.
 
ok ill try it all. my specs are right on the link lol.. i guess posting them is standard practice though.. im using xp.. and 8800 geforce gts 320.. intel duo core e6400 conroe. 2x 1 gb a data ddr2 800 ram. i dont have problems in other games and ive tried everything lol.. i know very well how to install rivers and all that.. i built this pc actually :D.. it seems like some kind of driver issue.. just starts to load it then drops it all to the desktop.. in get the 1st spals screen for it then jumps back to desktop.. maybe it is a network thing. i am on a router but even in single player offline it errors me.. seems driver related if i had to guess. or game related.. depending on which company blames the other one more..lol.. but thanks for the info ill try it all out..
