SWBF2 won't launch

I honestly haven't played BFII in a long time, probably at least 8 months. So yesterday I decided to try and play it again, and as soon as I popped it in, it recognized the disc was in and as always, asked if I wanted to launch it. I did, but then the launch screen never popped up, but the disc was still running, and I tried relaunching... Nothing.
(Plus, I got rid of several of the mods I had installed to make sure it wasn't mod-related) Can anyone take a guess on what it is?

run the game by launching the .exe in the gamedata folder and see if it works from there.

I tried using the .exe... it crashes every single time. I even made a shortcut on my desktop to see if that worked... it crashed. I have a feeling it has to do with mods, but I uninstalled some of my mods. At this point, all I have is v1.3, the conversion pack and Dark Times. And I'm almost sure that's under the mission limit.

Already uninstalled DT, convo pack may be a little tricky, but I moved all of the mods to a seperate folder to make sure they're not installed. Even without Dark Times it still crashes. I really don't know why, I had quite a few maps installed and previously the game worked just fine. But I haven't played SWBF2 in probably 8 months, and now it decides to be like this. (By the way, my computer is a Vista and it always has been. I'm not sure which compatibility setting I should use.
