BF2 Wont run

[[TW]Fox]

Hi all,

BF2 has decided it won't run anymore. I get the splash screen, screen goes black when it starts to load then bang... crash to desktop.

Tried reinstalling, no avail. Any ideas?

System specs:

AMD Athlon64 3500+
2048Mb Corsair XMS3200LL
ATi Radeon X850 XT PE

Last played it? Ages ago. Driver version? Dunno, Cat something.something, whatever was the latest version in December.

I can't even get into the game let alone the settings.

I've completely removed it and reinstalled it - I've now got a 100% new install of the default game, no patch. STILL refuses to run - I know its not currently patched but that shouldn't stop the game running at all. Applying latest patch makes no difference.

Going to try video drivers but I've had the game working before with this windows install/driver version?
