I'm having the exact same problem. I've followed instructions elsewhere and tried everything from installing the 1.5 patch and modifying resolution in .con files, all the game did was worked once (actually got the maps to load and whatnot) and crapped out ever since.

To anyone out there who might have a *definite* fix for this, I'm running Win7 Ultimate, 1280x1024@75Hz and a 1024x768@75Hz second monitor (not that it matters). I've tried literally EVERYTHING. Solutions that worked for other people do not work for me, at least not permanently.

Could be many causes, but one of it can be wrong resolution setting. Go to "My Documents\Battlefield 2\Profiles\0001" and delete Video.con file. This will set video settings to default.

If you havne't tried it yet, start the game as administrator

Steam and Origin dont sell the game anymore. You can try search on Amazon (for a long time even they didn't have it - but now it seems that it is back available for purchase).

But since gamespy shutdown, you can only play online on community created network now:

This is a list of discussions about the black screen problem. Hopefully one of it has the solution that you need:
{LINK REMOVED}

If not you can even drop by {LINK REMOVED} and post your problem yourself. As you can see from above, the guys at that forums are active with trying to solve BF2 related problems. Give it a try :)
