And why would you need to change your CD-KEY?

Key Changer?  You mean like to re-enter the one you got with the game?  You can put your key back in in the support folder of your BF2 directory with the program labeled "CD Key" whatever.  Other than that there is no way to change or modify your CD legally.

Why I want to, well my brother bought a copy of bf2 a long while back and we have been playing for a while, now we both have a computer and we cant play on the same server with the same bf2 key as you know. So I bought another copy of the game and instead of installing everything again I just wanna know if you can change it with a program or something?

I have done this before the 1.3 patch came out and it worked fine but I can't find that program again.

Follow these steps... it worked for me!

- Start -> Run -> regedit
- Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield 2\ergc
- Edit the (default) value you see there, type your new CD key in, without dashes.
- Run the full 1.3 patch again.
- Check back in the registry to ensure your CD key has been encrypted properly. If not, then run the full 1.1 patch followed by the full 1.3 patch.

Good luck!

!??!!??

Can't help you with that one unfortunately...
I've never had problems using Daemon tools and mounting an image of my DVD.

At least it looks like the CD key changed ok for you!

Nope...not unless you call uninstalling the crack a "fix".  Back to just using the disk...and yelling at my boys

Corrupted File/Memory probably means a bad install, sorry bud but you'll probably have to re-install again.

I had a similar problem with another game, so I'm assuming its the same type of problem.

Fujin, just use Daemon tools!
Download Daemon tools and install it. Image your CD/DVD using Alcohol 120% (or download a BF2 mini-image). Mount the image in one of Daemon's virtual drives. Enjoy!

Well, have you deleted the BF2 folder before you´ve reinstalled the game? Try that. And use the fullpatch 1.3 not the incremetals

FYI: THIS IS NOT ABOUT CRACKS OR STUFF, ANY POSTS ABOUT ILLEGAL STUFF WILL BE DELETED!!!

Ok, well I think I have fixed it, made an image of my cd and mounted on daemon tools, seems to work fine...

Thanks

Not trying to hijack the thread or anything, but....

1. Is making an image of your disc legal?

and

2. Does making an image of your disc reduce your loading times?

1. Yes. Maybe. I don't know. Who cares when it's the CD key sticker that you are really paying for!

2. Yes. The disc doesn't need to physically spin up to perform the CD check, so it does load faster. Combine this with the rename movies tweak, the general.con cleanup and the command line account login and you've got one speedy start to the game! (Those tweaks can be found elsewhere on the forums of course!)

Where to find daemon? Does anybody have link to official website? Is it free?
I tried loading the CD image to alcohol 120% virtual drive but it didn't work
