Help please? I'm desperate.

Alright so, i've been playing CF for god knows how long and out of the blue it just stops working. I've tried uninstalling and redownloading at least 3 times already and all from different mirror sites. When I log on, I click on the desktop icon, press start, then Gameguard appears and runs fine all the way to the login page. From there I login fine, choose a server, a channel and a game. Once I'm in the game room and i press join, my screen goes 2/3 black and the other 1/3 of my screen I can see my desktop. It is so frustrating. I've tried everything to get it to start working again. I disable my anti-virus, allow it through my firewall, open as an adminstrator and have it set to Windows XP SP2 compatibility. I've also tried gameboosters and still nothing will make it work again. I quit for a few months because of this. Even new updates do not solve my problem and I've tried contacting z8games which was like 3 months ago. ; - ; Can anyone help me?

Operating system:
Windows Vista Home Premium

Processor:
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6320@1.86 GHz

Memory:
2.00 GB

Anti-Virus:
McAfee Security

Firewall:
Windows Firewall and McAfee Personal Firewall

This is as far as i can get:

About the only thing i can say is update ur video drivers.also when uninstalling CF did u remove all corresponding Registry entries?becareful when it comes to Reg Editing.After uninstalling there's always a folder and some files left behind be sure to remove that b4 searching the registry for stray entries.Note i'm not that great with vista lol more of a XP person,Also run defrags aswell

i have tried defragging once before but it still didn't work. but thank you for the suggestion. i guess one more try with uninstalling and redownloading wouldn't hurt.

Try installing under a different folder (c:/program files/z8games1). Also, attempt to run the game quickly with the antivirus off, and see if that makes a difference.

As well, updating all drivers is usually a good thing.
