Sparky, some online games are private and unless you have the correct password you will not be able to join the party.

Most online games are set up by people through work or chat rooms, who book a time and set up a map with limited number of players. Check which online game you are playing go to EA games and check the battlefield2 websites. Make sure the online game you are joining is open to everyone and not a private party

 

Turn off Vista User Account Control.

Control Panel > Users.

 

Punkbuster has known issues with vista at the moment, any games that use it are having problems
