I found one or two ways to fix that from PCGAMER magazine.
re-download the patch again as it could be corrupt and repatch BF.

OR install it manually.
Run the installer and when it says "Welcome to install shield wizard for bf2 patch" leave it in place, go to Start>Run and type %temp%. Open up the newest folder in the window that appears, which will have a randomly generated name, open the similarity titled folder inside it and press Ctrl+A then Ctrl+C to copy all the files inside it. Open up your install directory. C:\Program files\eA Games\Battlefield 2 press Ctrl+V to copy them over, then run patch.exe.

If it still crashes BF2 can't cope with enforce display settings: ensure that your desktop settings are set to 800x600 with a refresh rate of 60Hz.

Or my favourite that works for me is: After loading and the join game button comes up wait 2-3 seconds for your computer to go quiet then it should load without a crash.

IM TALKING ABOUT THE CRAS WHEN U PRESS JOIN SERVER(BEFORE IT LOADS), NOT JOIN GAME, there was a thead name mistake

but waiting30 sec u dont get any vehicle and all troops are respawned, so u cant use the not ready factor to capture flags

Yes but if the game has already started by the time you load a couple more seconds won't matter.
