★ Guide
So you have the Game actually installed, But Origin can't find the files because it didn't download it.

origin click settings>advanced>check downloaded games directory. Find your Folder with BF2 in it and add it to directory.

second option.
Normally you would have to download it but there is a shortcut.
Copy the entire BF2 game folder to another location then deinstall the game.
Download the game again in Origin and when it starts downloading pause it.
Exit Origin and copy the game folder back.

Start Origin and the download.

It should finish "downloading" fast and start installing.

This saves a lot of time
especially on low internet speeds.

the BF2 game folder is normally located in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\



The game settings are saved in:
"your Documents"\StarWars Battlefront 2

So you want your Local files "Save games, User settings" transferred to a new computer?

 

This link should help you transfer all your saved games to a new computer.
