I havent tried this as yet but it comes from a great computer Guru, I've known for about 10 years.
OK alot of u complain about slow logins to BF2 so here a few things u can do to speed your login up. I login in approx 6 seconds Very Happy

From a previous post of mine:
goto this directory

C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Movies

rename all your movie files with .backup at the end or put an _ score in it. so they stay in the folder except (menu.bik and menu_loggedin.bik) leave those alone NOw ur all set launch BF2. Ive done this since i started playing this game and had no errors or kicks because of it.

rename these files only to :

Dice.bik --> Dice.bik.BACKUP or Dice_.bik both ways work jus rename them
EA.bik --> EA.bik.BACKUP
Intro.bik --> Intro.bik.BACKUP
Legal.bik --> Legal.bik.BACKUP


OK after all this is done goto your desktop to your BF2 icon and right click then select "properties"


3. Select “Shortcut” then locate the:

Target: "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1

IF U HAVE A +playnow in that field delete it(thats what launches u 2 a game server automatically)

4. At the end of this field add:

+playerName YOURACCOUNTNAMEHERE +playerPassword YOURPASSWORDHERE

5. The "Target: ..." field should then read:

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +playerName XXXXXXXXX +playerPassword YYYYYYYYY --DONT FORGET THE Capital P and N on password and name--

(XXXX= Your ingame account, YYYY= Your ingame password)

6. Then select “Apply” and “OK”.

7. Done! Now you no longer have to manually login to Battlefield 2!!

NOTE: However, depending on your internet connection and computer speeds, you may experience a black screen while the account is being logged into. This is normal!

Now using this shortcut will automatically log u in and bypass all the videos. If u like to use multiple accounts to login with just use the shortcut from the start -programs -eagames bf2 exe The target there will not be changed to log u in automatically unless u make the changes there also..

Hope this helps yell if u have a problem pretty simple and takes just a few minutes to do. Prob less time for u to load the game originally LOL.
