Doorman there's an option to recover your account details from demo version to the full version.

Got mine working this way,but hard drive failure has put me back to square one.. :dummy:
........oh and look its a maxtor hard drive,how unusual. :whistle: :roflmao: They are not made for 24/7 use,now have 4 failed drives in last year. <_< Xp install underway on a sata WD hard drive.I knew it was a bad move to try Maxtor again. :ranting: :ranting: :ranting:

The account server may be busy. there was something about this in the readme that came with the demo (but I cant see it in the readme with the full game). Can someone with the demo still installed check this?

Edit: I think it was something to do with the fact that the account had been created so you should log in or do a rescue account or something. Sorry cant remember properly

Knew I'd seen this somewhere:

Account Issues: The first time you go to start multiplayer in BF2, you will have to create an online account. However you may find that once you enter all the details and click the Create Account button, it may sit at the 'Creating Account' stage forever. If that's the case, simply exit the screen, restart BF2 and click the 'Retrieve Account' button using the same details - hopefully your new account will be loaded up. Further note that at the start of the game, if you keep pressing any keys to skip the intro movies, these keystrokes will be recorded in your Password box, thus when you click the Login button it will say you have an incorrect password. Either don't press any keys during startup, use the skip intro movies tweak in this guide, or clear the password box and re-enter the correct password each time you start the game just to be safe.

Should we not move the BF2 section of the forum to the Dead men teams section. so people playing on the server can more easily find it
