i tried the bia.exe from the RELOADED dvdrip with the HOODLUM install and i still get the same error...probably some incompatibility issue with the game itself and not the cracks.

Well its not because of the progs i mention above cause the game works fine here...im pretty sure its a hardware/driver conflict

I think it's an AMD/No SSE error. I get it too. Oh well. I'm thinking of just buying it for xbox.

I've posted before about my problem:
Game stutters, even in the menu, around 5-8fps when trying to play and this with a computer way above game-specs.
The solution for me:
I've done some changes, but i did it all at once so i don't know exactly what really took care of the problem, but anyway, here goes.
1. Installed the newest nforce drivers for my motherboard with nforce2 chipset. (Altough i got the newest from the manufacturer, so i don't think this was the problem.)
2. Uninstalled the ATI-gfx-drivers using this prog: ftp://ftp.sweclockers.com/pub/Drivrutiner/Grafikkort/ATi/Catalyst/cat-uninstaller.exe
3. Installed the newest official ATI-drivers (again, already had them, but wanted to try everything).
4. Uninstalled BiA
5. Installed BiA, only this time with my Antivirus off. (NOD32 antivirus)
Tried the game, ran smooth, installed patch, ran smooth.
So i don't know what made the different, but my guess is the antivirus-prog.
Good luck!

Yeah, I got the same problem.
Thats what I did:
Get RivaTuner - http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=163
Install it, start it and click that icon:
Than click green "+" at the bottom (Add new rule).
I have set the rule like that:
For every resolution from 800x600 to 1024x768 running in 32Bit color and with refresh rate between 50-75Hz RT will set refresh rate to 100Hz.
Last thing you should do is in Settings tab (in main RT window), check "Send to tray on close" and "Run and windows startup" (if you want).
That's because RT must be running to override refresh rate.
Older ForceWare versions had refresh override settings, but it's bit different in 71.84 (which I'm using) and I can't get it to work :/
If some1 has better/simplier solution, please post it, it will be greatly appreciated...

Maby this will help someone
(didnt help me because i have a older AMD chipset but its worth a shot)

Okay it is obvious that some systems are not quite up to the task of running this game. That does not necessarily mean a hardware update is called for (unless you have a gforce 3 or mx card) but a driver update and some tweaking may be called for.
ati cards go to this site https://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894&task=knowledge&folderID=27
nvidia here
http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
Motherboard drivers you are on your own. If you don't know what mb chipset or bios you need go to this site and download the pcwizard. It will tell you all that you need to know.
http://cpuid.com
Also this program is good. I use all of em.

I stole this from Gramps. Thanx Gramps.
AMD XP Possible Fix
If you have a AMD Athlon XP your problem could be that your SSE is not turned on and thank you for user099 for posting these instructions on turning it on:
Quote from another post:
"The problem still lies in the fact that SSE isn't available. In Thunderbirds it just isn't there and many just don't have it enabled on Athlon XPs. Use this link and learn how to enable SSE support and so play BIA http://www.myplc.com/sony/sse_enabling_and_wcpuid.htm
If you have Athlon XP just enable SSE.
-----------
If you have a thunderbird processor, BOTMAN at gearbox has stated that it IS a GAME CODE problem not a system driver, video driver, bios, or conflict with other software. IF you are seeing this EXACT GPF:
History: KWorldStepSafeTime <- KWorldStepSafeTime <- KTickLevelKarma <- ULevel::Tick <- ULevel::Tick <- [NetMode=0) <- UGameEngine::Tick <- UGameEngine::Tick <- CMainLoop::RunLoop <- MainLoop
We have reproduce the: KWorldStepSafeTime crashing problem and it is due to illegal SSE instructions on older AMD CPUs. We are investigating how to fix this SSE problem.

-------------
Long Load times? Try turning off Vsync in the options.
-------------
Possible fix for Null errors.
1. Updated to lastest video driver. 2. Turned off any programs running in the background. 3. Installed game and then restarted system. 4. Turned off any programs running in background. 5. Installed patch and then restarted system. Game works great now. I was getting the null error everytime I would try and start the game on two different systems. Loaded both systems this way and they both now work.
Thank you MarkRat
------------------
Possible Fix for AMD 64's with Crash to desktop or BSOD after quiting.
right click on "my computer"
go to "properties"
click on the "advanced" tab
under the title "start and recovery" click on "settings"
under "system start up" click "edit"
a notepad with text should appear
it should say something like this:
[boot loader]
timeout=0
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)part ition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1) \WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /noexecute=OptIn
Change the "/noexecute=Optin" switch to "/execute=Optin"
Just delete "No" then save as...and over write the file. Turn off your computer and reboot. Try to run the game...if it doesnt fix it...go back and add the "no".
Warning: If your not careful this could completely Hose your windows install...leaving you no option other than to format and reinstall the OS. I am not responsible for you hosing your system.
----------------
Another possible fix.
Go into the C:/programs/ubisoft/brothersinarms/system folder (or whereever you installed it)
Find the bia.ini file, now open it up and do a search for:
[D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice]
Under that should be lots of settings, find the one named:
UseHardwareTL=True
and change it to:
UseHardwareTL=False
Save the file, now right click on the bia.ini, properties and write protect it > very important as otherwise the setting will be written over upon load.
Now simply start the game in the normal way, and fingers crossed no more BSODs or random reboots. |

Game runs fine here using the hoodlum release
my rig:
AMD Xp2500
1.5 gig ram
Geforce Ti4200
nothing special for a system it just runs the game and thats it only thing different is I'm run 2000 and not XP so in another attempt to make things better Bill has failed us again. It's got to be something to do with XP

Any news on the General Protection Fault Error? I still have it after installing the Update 1.03...
Will try SSE and XP Service Pack 2 next but wanted to know if there are any new revelations...
