ok, so I finally get a new video card installed (new PC is on hold because of a plasma TV purchase), installed all and patched up. This was at 1AM EST, and vent was empty, so I tried some MP maps for BF2Vanilla. It was awesome! I'm hooked and I'll be playing more. I even was able to muster a couple kills.

I also did some single player for Special Forces and tried shooting someone with my "crossbow". I was quickly knifed.
