I've just made the recommendation in this forum and nothing to do more:

 

Hi, emile44,

 

I have been dealing with this issue for a few days now. I am on Win 10, cd rom version of bf1942. I have installed all the patches per instructions in your patch kit, activated direct play, made game to run off xp service pack 3, and also run as administrator, and the game will not load, asks if I would like to allow it to make changes, I say yes and it just goes back to the desktop. Any further advice?

 

But i Have installed battlefield 1942 on my second drive i:, do you think this may cause problems?

 

Thanks

Hey Drift!

Can I ask you if you are using the CD in the drive? Or are do you have it emulated.?

1. If you are using the disc in the drive, make sure the video settings are the same. There is another thread about this.

2. If your using an emulated version thers are many problems with this.

 

With that being said the most important question is. Did you upgrade from a different version of windows or install a fresh copy from a disc. This makes a HUGE difference in your options.

Good to know:

Here are the threads involved with this issue:

How to make BF1942 work with with windows 8.1:

Windows 10 Won’t Run Some Games (BF1942) Using SafeDisc Or Securom DRM:

http://www.moongamer...showtopic=64416

 

I believe angerfist said that most issues are resoled not because of compatibility but its from the video resolution changes causing a crash. So make sure you have both settings (1) your desktop settings and (2) your games video setting close or the same,

 

Also because you did a upgrade the safedic issue is embedded into your OS. You cant remove it.

 

Let us know how it goes and hopefully see ya on the BF !!

Really thanks Shavo,

 

Finally I fix it and it was really stupid. Was it only because I did not install the patch : battlefield_1942_gamespy_patch_v1.61.exe

 

However, I have one more question before I formatted, I had direct access to the servers icon moongamer. Do you know where, I could find the code.

 

Moongamers had provided.

 

Br,
