Keep getting a cd key invalid error when I try to play SF online(offline is ok), BF2 runs fine online its only SF that gives me this problem, have tried uninstalling everything and then re-installing and still get the same problem.

I've now contacted EA support to help and their first idea did'nt work (same as above :( ), so now its back to EA for more suggestions.

If any of you chaps have any ideas, let me know.

Vin..,

Is it not scratched ??

Dit you clean tha registry ??

Do you use the exact EU player/info for you character and key registration.
Did you have the right key registration no OO's instead of a zero,
or z instead of 7 ( i mean the z with a - in the middle)

can't think about anymore at the moment.

sometimes a patch/booster pack/epansion changes your name in the ea account and this may caouse such problem, i had it such way.check out in the ea link account of yours if it has changed the player name somewhere there (not ea user account ).

Fixed now, no thanks to tech help at EA, bunch of half wits. Had to tinker in the registry to get it going.
