Battlefield 1942 refuses to open: CD and Origin

Post by smurf118 »

Greetings chaps.

Recently people have been having problems when they installed the Origin 42, in that it wouldnt open, and Origin seems to take years to find the problem ._. ... Well, I have had it since it was released and until two or three days ago, it functioned perfectly. But suddenly it has ceased and refuses to open. Not only that, but my old CD version on 1.61 also refuses to open...

Anyone else experiencing this?

Yours,
Smurf.

PS, It is important that it opens soon as I need to test a map!

I have had problems with 1942 being weird. The solution is having back ups of the vanilla. Just the archives folder and RFAs. I have 2 backups of the archives folder, and around 5 back ups of the RFAs.

Back up like a good modder! :lol:
