|  BF2/ArmA Won't startup Ok so I have oblivion, BF2, and ArmA (and others but I haven't played those recently) Oblivion runs w/o a hitch, but both BF2 and ArmA will open up, show a black screen, get a very small part into the opening "credits"-if you will, and both games will minimize themselves and will not run any longer. The CPU will be under around a 50% load at this point. I have used Warez monster's spyware removal guide, but it didn't help. I have updated drivers. Windows XP is updated as well. BF2 ran fine in the past, but it won't run anymore. Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated. -drummer
