    If it installs then why is there a problem?

    Make sure you download and install patch 1.41.

    Also make sure you run it as administrator or you will be kicked from punkbuster enabled online servers due to lack of OS privileges.

    Other than that, BF2 runs fine on Vista. I didn't have to set it to xp compatability.
