You must have a legit BF2 CDKey written to your registry.

Do you have a legit CDKey?

If you do, go to PRLauncher->Support->Keys Tab->
Enter your CDKey , then click "Change Key", then click "Apply"

Start PR and try to join a server.

Thank You

But, I cant even launch the main menu (login menu). the main menu pops up, then a split second the warning sign comes off!

So i cant press the "support" button you were mentioning

I understand.
To fix this:

1. set your Windows date back to before March 10 2014.

2.
'[R-DEV wrote:AncientMan;1972331']OK, the launcher has been updated to support Amazon style CD Keys (requires dashes in the registry), properly encrypting them in the registry, and it all works fine both in the launcher and ingame in the next version which we'll release sometime in the next 12 hours hopefully.

However, since this kind of messes up launching the game and also blocks your ability of using the updater (if you get an exception like in the first post), you will need to change your CD Key in the registry to the normal, dashless version (which of course, won't validate and work online), then download the new update when it's available and it'll fix it all up for you.

To do this, easiest way is to just delete your CD Key then re-enter it in the launcher. To delete your CD Key, you can download this program made especially for this task: http://files.ancientdev.com/prbf2/PRDeleteKey.exe

Then, when the next update hits, you then download and run the update. During the update process, the updater will fix up your CD Key in the registry so it validates, encrypts and stores it correctly to work both in the launcher and ingame.

Should then work fine and you'll have no more issues. Sounds good?
3. Start PRLauncher, it should begin updating from 1.1.0.0 to 1.1.6.0

4. When the PRLauncher has updated to 1.1.6.0, start PR and try to join an online server to test.

5. Once you can join an online server, you can set your Windows date back to today's date.
