Did you delete all the temp files? Have you changed your monitor in recently? The game tries to launch at 800x600@60Hz so if your monitor can't do that it will quit back to desktop. Check out tweakguides.com, they have a whole section on fixing these issues.

It is also good to make sure all your drivers are up to date.

Don't forget updates.

Also to take into consideration that in-game the game likes to crash when the CPU is overloaded (it's either that or Cache spiking)  I think.

I can run Battlefield 2 on my ati 9550, but this is another computer. Thank you for the link, because I found the problem, Battlefield 2 cannot play on Geforce4 video cards.
