I can't help you until I have your Graphic Card model ...giving me "ATI Radeon Graphics Processor" just ain't gonna cut it.

Right-click your NAW shortcut...got to properties....look at the "Target" address...and the "Start in" address ....and tell me if the installation path is the same for BF2

e.g

Target= "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/naw

Start in="C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2"

Properties of NAW shortcut :

Target  : "H:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/naw

Start in : "H:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2"

                                                                                                                             

Properties of BF2 shortcut :

Target  : "H:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1

Start in : "H:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2"

hmm, now i have re-installed the game with all the patches (till 1.5) on the C: drive
I've also installed NAW mod , but still the same problem 

[PuckerFactor]

All I can suggest is to install the latest drivers for you graphics card...and to update your directX.

[bobs]

Ok i will try, thanks for the help 

i wil say if it is working or not...

go to naw folder on battlefield and remove  menu_server archive (That helped a lot)
