I have had this copy since 2012/13 but cannot get it to work
Sorry if the red lettering isnt showing properly
Well since this is not a request for the entire game I think I'll be able to provide links without Electronic Arts actually blocking me for posting them.
first enable DirectPlay please see this video guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWZT_lBygq0
now just download this patch from team simple https://team-simple.org/download/bf1942-v1.61-origin-patched.zip
Installation:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Extract in "Origin Games\Battlefield 1942" directoryoverwrite the existing Battlefield 1942 excludable withe the new one.
This allows battlefield 1942 to work without origin and redirects the executable to the new Master server.
if your game doesn't start up properly after that I need to know what your monitors lowest resolution is that is supported ?
bf1942 requires 800x600 to be supported by the monitor in order to start up.
simply go to your windows monitor settings and see what resolutions are available is 800x600 available in the list ?
