One tip with BF2 , whenever you change the video settings, it creates a new
folder in the

C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR COMPUTER NAME\My Documents\Battlefield
2\mods\bf2\cache

but as it doesn't delete the older folders, you have to do it yourself, if
not you end up with LOADS of different folders in that cache folder, which
slows things down a lot.

So just delete them all, next time BF2 starts, it will make a new one.
They are named something silly like....

'Realism is seductive because once you have accepted the reasonable notion
that you should base your actions on reality, you are too often led to
accept, without much questioning, someone else's version of what that
reality is. It is a crucial act of independent thinking to be skeptical of
someone else's description of reality.'-
