I tried the Regedit, but i have one strange problem. I ccan't save the file for some reason. Oh, and im using an Offical BF2 disk, Windows7 and all the patches and mods for PR and usual BF2

Alright I've tried a lot of the CD key valid not valid whatever fixes.

I have tried this method, reinstalling the game, opening up the patch and then doing the %temp% thing. Reinstalled again, uninstalled and deleted all remnants of the registry and anything remotely to BF 2 and i still get this error.

What are the reasons for getting a cd-key invalid? Is it the registry? Does someone else have my cd key and is logged on? Am i installing the wrong patch? (I installed 1.41 then 1.50, then installed PR)

At one point I did not get this error, i had my game setup, worked fine and played. Since I have reinstalled the game this recent time I have had these issues pop up again, the first time this trick worked, was there something in .90 that changed the cd key thing?

Got the CD error key to go away, now I am back to getting kicked by PB every time I try to join a server.

This worked for me for copying an old install over to a new PC since the re-install and update wasn't working properly. Thank you!

This guide was extremely useful. I have also used this guide on Special Forces but still have to test it. I will post updates later.

Were can i find the CD Key itself? If it is the one on the back of the BF2 cover or manual i cant apply that because i no long have either. Is there a way to get the CD key some other way? Iv been playing this game for a while now but recently i needed my motherboard replaced, and that seems to have messed things up.
