Default Conflict with emulator help.

open up your device manager and look under storage controllers see if you have anythinf like iSCSI initiator or anything else weird.

also look under cd/dvd drives and see if there is more drives listed then you have. If you see a SCSI cdrom device, that is probably your issue.

Default Update 2.5 conflict with emulation software detected

I installed the 1.5 update for battlefield 2142 and now I get a "Conflict with Emulation Software Detected" error. I am not running any emulation software on my computer. I did a search of the EA site and found it might be a problem with SecuROM™ software that comes with the game to prevent you from copying the game. I e-mailed SecuROM™ and here is their fix.

Please download a new <BF2142.EXE> from the link below. I would appreciate it if you could rename your current one to

<C:/PROGRAM FILES/ELECTRONIC ARTS/BATTLEFIELD 2142 DELUXE EDITION/BF2142.EXE.OLD >

Extract the downloaded file into the application path mentioned and start the new application.

The link for the new file is:

http://www.securom.com/support/custo...033/BF2142.zip

I followed the above instructions and now BF2142 works just fine.

Default Problem with the patch 1.50

Heya !

I just bought BF 2142 having played all the other battlefield games and i love it !!!

But got a small problem (probaly a bit noobish but anyway..)

I will download 10%, 20% or more but then the download freezes and says its finished but i doesnt work (I know its not possible for it to have finished because it was a 10% one time with 2hrs remainig and then in 30secs said it was finished !??!)

Default Patch 1.5 won't install

I've downloaded the 1.5 patch and tried to install over a pristine BF2142 however part way through the install it stops, hangs for a few seconds and drops me out.
I'm running Win XP - as I say, I've not installed the previous patches just a clean install from the CD. The game gets me to the opening screens but I can't see any servers listed.

Use this link here.: EA - ::Battlefield Franchise::

The 1.50 download for BF2142 is the one with the date of (05.30.2008). You can find it on the left side of the page I linked; under the Latest Downloads. This one if for window. Once downloaded just double click it to start it.

Note: If you use a Mac then you would need to top one in the list.

I've downloaded the 1.50 and I installed the 1.40 before installing 1.50, however, when I try to install 1.50 it says that I've already installed a newer update (which cannot be true, because, I have only installed 1.40). Is there a way to install the 1.50? Or do I have to reinstall the game and only install the 1.50 after installing the NS expansion (I have installed the 1.40 before and after downloading the NS expansion from EA Link) ?
Any helps would be great!
Thanks

Why do you install 1.40? WHY? Thats an old patch which you DONT need. I dont understand why so many think that they need 1.40 before 1.50. It will only result in you getting problems like this.
The ONLY patch you need is Patch 1.50. Dont use 1.40 or whatever, it should always work with the latest patch. Heh..

Reinstall BF2142 (first remove NS, then the core game, then install again).
Install NS
Install Patch 1.50

Please reply on how it goes

It's been proven many times on many forums that installing the 1.50 patch alone causes problems, especially with NS servers. That's why.
Oh and you need to patch before installing NS unless you have 2142 deluxe.

Thats because people try to install the Incremental 1.50 update over Northern Strike when we even announce that you can't do that.
99% of problems with updating are user error and solved quickly by following the instructions on the EA Support webpages.

It has always been that the core game needs to be patched first before NS.
NS can not be installed unless your game has been patched with 1.20 or higher first.

Patch with 1.40, install NS, patch with 1.40, then patch with 1.50 full or incremental (both work).

Correct. I couldnt have said it better.
I cant understand how people can have so much problems with patching games. Its so easy..

Btw, its the same for BF2 too. However, I dont need to patch the core game before SF. I dont!
Install BF2
Install SF (If you have it)
Install Patch 1.41
Install AF (If you have it) - Note: AF before EF, cause AF is newest..)
Install EF (If you have it)
Install Patch 1.41

You should not tell people what they should and should not say. They have the right to their own opinion.
Quite frankly both methods have been proved to work. It is all in what you feel like doing and what works for your system. You must take note that some methods that work for certain people may not work for others.

Also; their has always been those out their are are not as good at understanding how to do things when it comes to computers like others might. Like Patching games. They will learn like we have. That does not mean that we have the right to be disrespectful about it.

Please try to keep that in mind when posting. It makes for a better forum environment.
