Just so everyone knows, I did fix this problem by reinstalling BF2 and repatching, but I'm asking in hopes that I may find a better solution for if this ever occurs again.
Here's the bug - BF2 starts up fine, everything works on the menus, etc. Even when I join a game, during the loading screen, I have full control over the mouse cursor and can use the keyboard. But immediately after I'm in the game, I lose all function of my mouse and keyboard in BF2. The mouse cursor stays locked right in the middle of the screen and my keyboard doesn't respond to any normal input. Here's the odd part - Alt + F4, Alt + Tab, Start Menu key all work. They'll do what they're respectively meant to do and minimize (Or close out) BF2 and I have full control of everything. So I have not a clue.
BTW, this occured in both SP and MP.
