| I remember having this problem i did the following and its now working sweet as a nut 
If you goto your main bf2142 dir on your hdd, there should be a file called radial.cdb. If you cant see it you prob not got on "show hidden files and folders". Now that your can see it rename it to oradial.cdb. The maps should now load without a problem seems like this file is corrupted.
Anyway hope this helps. Hi btw | | | |

| could also try deleteing C:\Documents and Settings\\My Documents\Battlefield 2142\
forcing it to rebuild your profile/graphics optimisations
(back it up first, so you've a way back  )
it's a wild guess, but that's the kinda stuff that goes on with that progress bar.. | |

| Ok, I would try this
1) download pbsetup.exe (from somewhere  ) and run it, following the instructions to update
2) Make sure you have all M$ updates (in particular DX9 runtime)
3) Reinstall
BTW path to bf2142.exe is something like C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\BF2142\bf2142.exe, lazy bugger | |

From somewhere ->

Download the windows version and then add the games that are applicable and then update. Any probs and I will be on vent later.
Try this and the game BEFORE uninstalling. No point re-installing when it could work purrfectly...... | | | |
