Well, I can only say that when my firewall messes up, I also get blocked at the soldier screen, without any progress bar appearing and it looks like it crashed, though it didn't. I'm using a clonecd image of the original mounted with daemon tools, I'm going to try the crack later on and see if it works. In the meantime, a good tip is completely reinstalling from scratch and applying the 1.2 patch, then adding the crack. I had to reinstall even though I didn't use ANY crack nor ANY mod. I had the weirdest problems after applying the 1.2 patch, a reinstall fixed everything. Also take care that you use the correct official patch, EA messed up and uploaded a beta patch initially, the beta patch was up on 3dgamers for quite a few hours, I initially had the wrong one too.
The bad patch has the following characteristics : name:"bf1942_v1.2_full.exe", size:22,955,046 bytes.
The correct patch has the following characteristics : name:"battlefield_1942_v1.2_full.exe", size:22,956,029 bytes.
Make sure you're using the correct patch, and if you have the bad one, redownload it, it was fixed on 3dgamers and all other mirrors.
