I found a fix for Steam overlay & BC2

You need to run the game in DX9 mode.

My docs>BFBC2Beta>Settings.ini

Change DXVersion from Auto to 9

Close save.

I'm gonna check if this works.

EDIT: It works! It even makes the game minimize properly. Hope it doesn't affect performance

EDIT 2: It increased my FPS about 30%, you are a genius.

Turn off bloom in the settings.ini by setting it to false.

Gave me about 10fps more and i cant see a difference in the graphics.

Probably because its in Dx9? Try it in Dx10, im sure i read that somewhere
