Next time it happens write down the message of your blue screen or take a dig pic of it and post it up.

I doubt ATi would cut support for it's 9 series but yea those are some old ass cards. I think BF2 doesn't support anything older than a 8500, and when I look at the system requirnments it skips the 9200s. I'd say soon as you have like a $100 spend it on one of these

Dump any folders under your cache folder My Documents\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\cache and see if it helps.

now that i think of it my bf2 ran fine for the longest time.... i can even recall the patch working for me.... my comptuer got a bad virus or something a few months ago and my dad brought it to best buy to get fixed... when it came back it was like buying my comptuer again withnothing in it... u think it cud be the patch?
