Whilst im thinking about it i have an issue with BF2 and my HDTV.
I have a 32" Samsung HDTV connecting to my pc through HDMI - DVI and the picture is awesome until i load BF2 whilst its loading its fine you get to the menu screen and the top the bottom and some of the sides are missing. Its winding me up a treat any ideas ???

Go to your HDTV maker's website and see if there's an updated driver for it.

ok if you cant see the pic , basically right click the BF2 shortcut icon and in the target you should see "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 or something similar all i did was add +szx 1200 +szy 664 because i wanted my screen resolution to be 1200x664 and then loaded up the game and wooohoooo it works :D
