I had previously owned a copy of BF2142, and then Downloaded the Northern Strike package via the now defunct EA Link. However after re-installing it on my new gaming computer last year, I wasn't abl...
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.
Installed 1.4 patch, 1.4-1.5 patch and turned off compatibility mode and it worked!! Installed Northern Strike (not free in patch) and now installed patch 1.51 patch.and it works on window 8 64 bit.
