It would be nice to actually see the blue screen error that you see. See if you can take a picture of it and post it. From the sound of your problem, it seems you need a new graphics driver. If that won't work then you would need a new GPU, but since you have a laptop, you can't change that. Also post your laptop model and we might be able to do some searching for you.

It would be helpful if you could reinstall your system again and then install BF2. Try playing everytime before installing a new update. Thus you can tell exactly which update makes your game crash.
