i downloaded the demo last night and installed it thismorning and when i try to run it it goes to a blank screen then brings up an error message saying "BF2.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"

please help!

What are your system specs?
Have you closed all unnecessary background tasks?
Have you updated all your hardware drivers?

What version of Windows are you running?

I think it might be your graphics card or the amount from RAM you have that is the problem.

Just to double check all I need your specs, the easist way to find out would be for you to download and run Belarc Advisor. Belarc will then analyse your hardware and display a report.

this is all the relevant information i thought you would need

[ZEUS_GB]

As a thought it's your graphics card that isn't good enough to run the game. You need at least a 128MB graphics card to run the game.

[biffyclyro89]

is a graphics card a physical thing you actually have to manually put in your computer or is it something you can download?

[Game_Freak]

Graphic card is hardware (physical thing indeed) But you can download drivers!
