My friend had the same problem. After returning the game to the store about 3 times, and getting the same problem, I browsed some forums and found out how to fix it, currently I don't remember how, but I'll try and look for the link.

Edit :
Click Start.
Go to Run.
Type regedit and hit OK button.
Click on plus sign next to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
Click on plus sign next to SOFTWARE.
Double click on Electronic Arts folder.
Double click on EA Games folder.
Double click on Battlefield 2 folder.
Double click on ergc folder.
Data displayed will probably have x9392 only.
Right click on it and select Modify.
Type in x9392 and then your CD key.
note: don’t include hyphens.

Example: x9392(your Battlefield 2 CD key here)
If you have Battlefield 2: Special Forces

Click Start.
Go to Run.

Why not just go to Battlefield 2\Support\Battlefield 2_code.exe and enter the cd-key there and re-patch?
Seems a lot easier to me

Email EA and tell them.  I'm sure they'll help you untill you find your old one, or give you another CD key.
