FH2 Help / Support / FH2/BF2 and Win8pro compatability
« on: 14-07-2013, 03:07:51 »
Hey everyone.
I am unsure where else to turn for this inquiry. I haven't really found to much by way of help in Google.
I'm having some issues installing Battlefield 2 (standalone copy, not steam) on Windows 8 Pro OS. According to the battlefield forums, and other places on the internet, BF2 is completely compatible.
My issue is, upon putting in the disc, entering CD keys and beginning the install, it freezes at the file "Menu_client.zip".
Anyone have this issue, or better, any tips or such to getting BF2 to work on Win8 Pro? I would consider just buying BF2 on steam, as maybe something is wrong with my CD, but I am wary of wasting the 9.99, and equally am unsure if I will get FH2 working through the steam version of BF2.
Any input is appreciated
thanks!
