    I downloaded the Eve of Distruction Mod from planet battlefield.com

    When i run it i can get to the main menu, select anything i want, but when i go to start the game it minimizes to the desktop. When i click on the BFV bar in my taskbar, it opens up, goes black, and then back to the desktop.

    Has anyone had a simular experience or have any suggestions?

    When im playing WoW on my laptop *randomly* hangs the mouse for some reason (as in the mouse doesnt feel like clicking anything) then WoW minimizes and if i reclick to maximize it will minimize again like your problem.

    Works fine here man. Maybe a bad download. Where did you download from? I got mine at www.fpscentral.com. Good speed as well. ;)

    I had a similar problem a while ago (not with a mod though just the game). Have you tried updating your video drivers? Will it work if you restart your computer?

    Hope it helps :)

    There have been so many people that have problems installing mods for Vietnam, as well as the whole Battlefield series. Usually it's a bad download.

    I got mine from fileplanet.com

    I will give fpscentral a try. Looks like a good site. Right now i have 150kbs coming from Ill. :D

    Hopefully this will fix my problem. This looks like a kick ass mod.

    Well i was able to get about 50ft down a hill before it crashed to the desktop. :( The sound was still there, and when i clicked the bar at the bottom it opens back up to the game, and i can see everything, but it crashes within a split second again. :(

    Hmm I will look around some of the boards to see if there is a topic about this.

    Update:

    I installed the beta 66.81 drivers from nVidia. It got better. I was able to get 2-3 min into the game before it crashed. That little dialog box that askes me to send an error report to microsoft came up again.

    I hae tired EOD forums, but not much help there. :(

    Ok I had it CTD last night for the first time. Not sure why, as it's not ever done this before. lol I too have had little luck in finding anybody else with this problem.

    Yeah i cant seem to find anyone else who is having the same thing happen. I did a system restore to about a week ago. Everything was working then. So far BFV is working great, i will not install the mod again. I am under the assumption that it corrupted a driver somewhere.

    I have to reinstall Farcry, and see if anything is fixed there.

    Thanks
