Ok, so, after a few hours of trying, seems like it works best in win xp sp3 compatibility mode, with manually added firewall exception for bf1942.exe.
Fortunately it was possible to uninstall the patch without having to reinstall the game, and immediately my ping dropped drasticaly.
My steps of installation :windows 7 professional x64, AMD platform::::Source : bf1942 + rtr + sw + patch 1.61b, + pixelfighters win7 patch.
In fact the damn game haven't crashed once , after i added the exception into fw.
i hope it would help others smile

AMD win7 64 user here as well. I was having your exact same probs up til the date. I dont have the pixelfighters thingie though, but reading thru this thread I changed from wnxp service pack 2 to sp3, lets see if it works. BF1942 occasionally crashes when a new map starts or at opening it first time. Thanks for this thread.
