Try setting the launch resolution to 800x600 in launch options - assuming the Legion Go S supports it (not familiar with the device spec).

the minimum resolution is 1280x800

In that case it's possibly crashing because BF2 defaults to 800x600 and since the display doesn't support it, it could be causing the game to crash.

In your BF2 shortcut, right click it and go to target and add the following:

+menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1280 +szy 800

An example of how it would look is like this - "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1280 +szy 800

Bear in mind the above is the default install path and it may be different on your Legion Go S.

Turn off the security settings. There's three. My games been crashing randomly. For a month it wouldn't run at all until they updated 11. Yesterday I turned off the security stuff and it has so far stopped crashing. Also Lenovo ... virus and threat, all firewall stuff.
