Alright, so here's the deal. I have been battling since Thursday to get BF2 up and running. I had the DVD version and about a year ago it broke. That was fine by me, as I was involved in groups for TF2, WIC, and IL2. However, I have recently been wanting to play BF2 again, and decided to buy the complete version from the EA Store.
It took until today, and numerous support tickets before I could fix the "cannot verify, log into EADM to verify" error which had prevented me from launching. However, now I am faced with a new problem. Every server I try to connect to gives me an "Invalid CD-Key error."
First, I tried the cure-all of uninstall/reinstall. No success.
I then tried contacting EA by phone. Waited on hold, never spoke to anyone.
I then Googled the problem, and that pointed me to regedit. Two problems. I find the local_machine and software directories all fine, but I do not have an EAGames sub-directory under that. What's more, I was never given a CD-Key, as it was a digital purchase.
Then I looked here, and tried the EA_code program. It refuses to launch in either normal or administrative mode.
So I'm basically at a loss for what to do. My only thought is that it has to do with me retrieving my old account. Could that be it? I would rather not have to start new, but if I have to so be it.
Another thing, if I do delete the profile, will my Euro Force/Armored Fury expansions be deactivated? Thanks in advance everyone.
