God dammit...

Nothing is working. Not any fix, not any registry, nothing.
Add that to the fact that I can't find my key code = fuck.

If you have previously registered your battlefield 2 game with EA, you may go to http://support.ea.com and sign in using your classic(username) EA account, click on My Account, login there with EA classic account, click on my games, and under your pc ea games it will show every game registered to your account including cd key for pc titles.
Unless I'm mistaken, this method doesn't work anymore, does it? I can't find any way to login using the old Classic EA account system.

There are 4 ways to type it.

YOURBF2CDKEYHERE

YOUR-BF2C-DKEY-HERE

x9392YOURBF2CDKEYHERE

x9392YOUR-BF2C-DKEY-HERE

My CD key only works with x9392 and dashes so everyone suggesting you don't need dashes is BS. Sometimes you apparently do.
This for people who still have troubles... Might wanna add it on the OP

Viirus, which version do you own that you need to use dashes?
Retail DVD Complete Collection or what?

Start up vanilla BF2 multiplayer, sign in with online multiplayer account, try to join a punkbustert enabled server. letus know if you get kicked for invalid key.

Next, we need to know the type of BF2 you own. Steam? EADM/Origin? Amazon download? Retail DVD with prior to v1.22 ? Retail DVD with version after v1.22 ?
