This is from the EA site:

Please be aware:
In an effort to reduce download times the Battlefield 2142 Demo does not contain a DirectX installer. Please be advised that in order to play this demo players must have DirectX9 installed and should ensure that the d3dx9_29.dll is present in your C:\WINDOWS\system32.


Here's the original link, including the DX9 download link

When ever I try it it tells me "BF2142 has fail to install. Please restart from the begining." and I have the DX9 thing in c/windows/system32. What the hell is wrong?

I had this problem.

I fixed it by googling for the files it said were missing.
(d3dx9_29.dll, for example.)
Once if found and downloaded them, I put them in c:\windows\system32
Problem Solved.
Hope this helps!

This has been posted before on the TBF2142 Forums.  Apparently EA is aware of this issue, and all you have to do is update to DX9c.
