Hi, I'm having a serious problem with the latest patch of my old bf 2141. I've already downloaded and installed 1.50 but when it comes to 1.51 it doesn't works. It asks me the authorization of installing, i click ok, but then nothing happens... I run Windows 8. Any Hints? (i already tried to run with XP compatibility pack 3 but same problem)
i have the same freaking problem. but i am stuck at 1.4, so i just cant update it! i have tried to download the update from the download side (cant remember what hte name was) but it just keep cancelling it!
I have done a fresh 64 Bit Windows 8 install . Installed 2142 from disk. Tried installing 1.51 patch and it says "You already have a newer version installed"
I installed the 1.4 full patch then
Tried installing 1.51 patch and it says "You already have a newer version installed"
So I tried starting the game with the 1.4 patch installed. run as administrator and Win XP SP3 compat.
Started it from the DVD Autorun. Start BF 2142. It says please insert the DVD-ROM and restart application.

do it word for word to the letter
remember you can only do 1 at a time you can download both at the same time
but not run at hte same time.
run 1.5 first then run 1.51
PS you dont have to get the update or the patch from those sites any site will do
as long as it is 1.50 update and 1.51 patch
Did the uninstall from Origin and the first retail disc install (had both on different hard drives) and am in the process of applying the 1.5 & 1.51 (the retail was 1.4) after re-installing the game from the disc again as per the you tube video. Went to EA forum which is Battle Log now and others having the same issue are still having issues..I don't think having 64 bit is the issue as I ran "Can I Play It" and it was in the green.
Had to do re-reply because I didn't see the 'email me when someone replies' button.
