After having to install a mod to get rid of some minor texure bugs, the game runs fine on my laptop with windows 10.

my laptop runs Windows 10 and it works fine, if not better than previous OS's. If you're new to the game, i really recommend getting these mods from moddb.com: Battlefront Extreme 2.2, Unofficial Patch v1.3 r129 (No other mods will work with out the patch, so this mod is a must), And Conversion Pack 2.0 and the 2.2 patch for the Conversion Pack, which you have to download and install seperately. Hope you enjoy!

Also, Republic Commando mod v1.4 is a mod I play a lot, so recommended!
try these:

for Windows 10:

set resolution to MAX and make sure anti-aliasing is off

other things you can try:


enable stereo mix

How to Enable Stereo Mix:
Start > Control Panel > Sound > Recording tab > If you don't see Stereo Mix, right click and select Show Disabled Devices > Enable Stereo Mix
(If you still don't see Stereo Mix, try to plug in a mic and enable it)

run as admin;
go to right click on the entire SWBF2 folder (located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common) and going to:
Properties > Security > Edit > Choose your User > give it full permissions by clicking the Allow on everything there > Apply. > Advanced > Add Permissions if you like > at the top change OWNER to your main User. > hit Apply. > then go back to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common > click SWBF2 > GameData > right click on SWBF2 > at the top it should say Run as Administrator, try to run it that way, if that doesn't help, right click again > go to Properties > Compatibility > Run the program in Compatibility Mode. In Security make sure you have admin rights there also, simply go to security and check. click Edit to change Permissions, click Advanced to change Owner and more Permissions just like before with the SWBF2 folder.

delete vidmode

(vidmode is located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\DATA\_LVL_PC )

plug something into microphone port

if your game only crashes on a certain map, go to: Library > right click SWBF2 > Properties > Local Files > Verify Game Cache

if you have a black screen, try this: http://prntscr.com/8288sp (screenshot)

if your game crashes on a modded map/etc uninstall it and reinstall.

I know this is an old post... But... Months back, I bought this game, and had the same problem as the OP: Black screen, no stat. After no sucess, I requested a refund and never even got to play this game. I would appreciate a sollution to this issue,. If one seems to work with Windows 10 laptop, then I will repurchase the game.
