Re: [INFORMATION] Origin version BF1942 won't launch

actually on Windows 10 battlefield 1942 works fine without compatibility mode only thing you have to enable is administrator and have direct play installed.

if people are running into issues it's because they do not have the master server patch.

or they are running a very old version of Battlefield 1942 from CD-ROM which uses

securom DRM which is no longer available on Windows 10 so this again THEY need the master server patch which has included a no cd PATCH so the game is no longer relying on a CD to work.

if then people still have problems running the game it comes down to having third party programs enabled.

Or the monitor not supporting 800 by 600 as lowest resolution.

Finally it can also be a graphic card drivers being screwed up thanks to AMD.

I have been playing bf1942 for 20 years so I know everything.  

the irony is electronic arts is no longer allowing me to post unofficial patches and download links
I am forced to help people in a different way.  that's why I started streaming on Twitch.
so when I'm live on Twitch you can always ask me questions.

    I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.

    If you have any issues with Battlefield 1942 please make a new topic about the issues you are having and what kind of steps you have tried to solve it.
