Default The Invalid CD Key Strikes Back

Problem. Today I started Battlefield 2142, and after finding that my keyboard suddenly didn't work and restarting my computer, I start it again to find that when I try to join a server, it says 'Invalid CD Key'.

I know other people have had this problem, but I've been playing Battlefield 2142 for a while, and never had any problems (apart from when I was STUPID enough to try EADM and get Northern Strike )

Anyone else have this problem/know how to fix it?

Thanks.

That can't have caused it.
Other than that tho, I like the answer - short and sweet!

Oh, sorry! Going to try it now.
Even so, I've been online loads of times before, so why should it suddenly stop working?

I think you can use Battlefield 2142_code.exe to input your cd key and then patch with 1.50 full or 1.40 full and 1.50 incremental.
