Post Power Supply
Well I havent been able to run BF2 at all it will start up then just make my computer restart. I have a P4 3.0 H/T w 800mhz fsb, 1gig ram, a Radeon x1300 512mb and the game just doesnt want to play I only have either a 300 or 350 watt power supply so im looking into buying a new one prob around 500watts does anyone know a good cheap one for under 100$ ?

It seems not to be the power supply, It could be the VideoCard config or drivers, make sure U have the latest one and its memory is at least 256mb.
U may try to change the video config to get optimal settings for performance not quality.

I fixed it. It was the power supply I bought a 430watt one from bestbuy and now the game plays great.
