Retry loading the game.

If that does not work= try 'Verify Game Cache' in Steam. Right click with mouse on "Battlefield Bad Company 2" to 'Verify Game Cache'.

You may have to uninstall and reinstall "Battlefield Bad Company 2"

Make sure your logged into the correct ea account. I got it fixed. for some reason it was logging into a completely different ea origin account then the one i had registereed it to..

Thank you!!!

I had trouble with the CD-keys as well. Thanks to your advice I finally checked if I already had an EA/Origin account. This turned out to be the case. After the game accepted the codes perfectly.

So... everybody that's stuck with non-working CD-keys... Go check if you are using your original EA/Origin account... Your CD-keys are NOT (probably not) allready in use!

its useing my origin account, how can i switch it?

I'm telling you guys EA is the worst thing that happened to PC gaming. I had to buy Bad Company 2 twice on Origin because of their stupid DRM. I got so much crap from that company it's not even funny. They will never recieve a single cent from me from now on. and I'm glad I didn't buy any EA games on Steam because they're a crappy publisher who don't know how to please their customers.

I get this same error because i got a new computer and i had used that cd key on my old one..
It may be another issue for me then.. :(

[give me what i want.]

i dont know i this matters, but i made a bfbc2 accont for my computer and i later had to make a different origin account, both with the same email and password used but different usernames and i cant find any solution to the cdkey error... any help?

The solution is to not buy a EA game.
