Normally it's enough to restart BF2 and login, otherwise you might have a look at Taskmanager whether the A is running (which it should from windows start on), when connected to a server a B should also be running. You also might check at management console under Services if A is started automatically...also check if your Firewall blocks BF2 or Battlefield2 - if so make an exclusion for both that also keeps the A and B unblocked...
