Hey guys I run windows 7 64 bit on a microsoft stuidos xps,
I was playing PR last night with no problem, this morning when I log on and try to connect to any server it's telling me I have an invalid CD-Key for some reason. Any help?
Thanks in advance

DO you own a legal license key?
We need more info.
What type of BF2 did you buy? Steam, EA Origin, Retail Package, etc.?

Have you tried the sticky thread for this problem?

Below is another way to do this:
quick test:
Battlefield 2 - Invalid CDKey Fix - Page 13 - Steam Users' Forums
IF all fails [Windows 7 and Windows Vista Solution]
Open up regedit (Win + R, type "regedit" and hit the enter). Browse to the registry keys of Battlefield 2. On 32-bit systems, this is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield 2\. On 64-bit systems, it's HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield 2\.
Inside Battlefield 2 , you should see ergc.
Then there is one value inside that folder.
It says x9392AND-SO-ON.
Go to steam and right click Battlefield 2 and click View Game cd key
and copy it.
Paste it after the x9392.
Do the same with Special Forces.
Use dotDev's installscript.vdf found here http://germandarknes.net/content/BF2FixdotDev.zip
4. Play Game

Just checked pbbans and you don't appear to be globally banned - so the issue must be local
