					|  |  
					| running vista home 32bit, 8800gtx, 2 gigs ram, Quad Q6600 @ 2.4Ghz, game won't start.
all i get is black screen.
 
 quite a few people at the ea boards having the same problem
 http://forums.ea.com/mboards/thread.jspa?threadID= 451328&start=0&tstart=0
 
 i've tried all the usual stuff.
 disableing nod32,
 running as administrator,
 allowing through my firewall,
 
 i'm using the zerosec image with the darc0der paul.dll.
 
 when i run the game i get the busy icon for a sec, then black screen...
 alt-tabbing out shows the exe is still running in the task manager.
 
 anyone able to help with this one?

					| i've tried every version of the nvidia drivers, starting with 175 up to current beta version.
 i've used nvidias command center to force off vsync, and a host of other tweaks.
 i've uninstalled sound drivers and installed latest...
 
 i just don't know on this one...i've had to borrow my sons copy on 360.
 great game, but playing with a controller is complete shit...
 
 anyone else?
