Instructions for modifying your registry to be showing the BF2 installed version as 1.5:
  1. If you are running a 32 bit operating system:
    1. Download the file: http://realitymodfiles.com/ancient/bf2_ ... re_x86.zip
    2. Extract and run the .reg file and press yes to merge the settings with your registry
  2. If you are running a 64 bit operating system:
    1. Download the file: http://realitymodfiles.com/ancient/bf2_ ... re_x64.zip
    2. Extract and run the .reg file and press yes to merge the settings with your registry

Thanks AncientMan but there is no wow6432 folder in 32 bit operations systems. It should be

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield 2]
"Version"="1.5"

  1. You download the appropriate fix file for your system.
  2. Extract anywhere or open that .zip file.
  3. Double click on the .reg file. Confirm the following dialog with yes.
  4. Fixed
  5. Start the installer again.
