[bf1942] BF1 Question : Using FireDaemon Pro to run bf1942?

[Aubrey King]

Try linux.  daemons are native to it and foreign to windoze.  No need to 
reboot the server when an app misbehaves, etc.  All in all, superior - 
except when trying to play games. :)  For servers, though, WAY more stable 
and efficient.
