ok guys, i managed to get my patch up to 1.50 after deleting profiles and stuff in my documents and removing any left overs and cleaning my registry with cc cleaner. but heres the real problem. everytime i go into multiplay, 2142 crashes to desktop. i dont even get to see a server show up. now i know it only happens when its serching for servers because i managed to click one of the tabs at the top of multiplay before it could search for servers and it didnt crash. but everytime it updates, it crashes.
my specs are:
OS:vista 32 bit (4.00 gb ram)
GFX card: ATI Radeon HD 3650
Processor: intel core 2 duo 2.10ghz
i also switched of UAC when installing the patch and the game (im not sure if this helps with anything). ive tried turning it on then playing the game and no sucess. i have also run in compatability mode but the game wont even run on xp service pack 2
ive also tried another thing with my friend where i tried joining the server he was in by buddy list but the server wouldnt load up and another time it crashed to desktop.
ive also tried this with my fire wall off and no luck
i hope someone can help
thanks!. (one last thing, i tried going to affinty in task manager and unchecking cpu 0 and keeping cpu 1 checked but that didnt help either)
Edit: i reinstalled my game again and it worked 100% fine. i think the issue is something with the patcher, can anyone give me any help on it. i remember patching and the patcher would just close
