Just be patient mate, support sometimes takes a while, many of us are busy.

Have you patched BF2142 to 1.5?  If Yes, go into your BF2142 install folder, go to your "Mods" folder and delete all files with a name similar to "FSBuild xxxx.zip"  Once you have done this, open your launcher, go to File -> Preferences and set "Version" to "1000", hit apply then okay, then update again.

If you HAVEN'T patched BF2142 to 1.5, you can get a link to the patch HERE. Download and install that, then I'd recomend re-installing First Strike before attempting to cnnect to a server.

I'd gladly take some of that RAM.

But seriously, try what Twigs said, it usually works.
