I'm assuming that when you try and launch the game the monitor is giving you an 'Out of range' or 'No signal' message or just going blank.
In that case:

To force a resolution that's not listed in the video options, right-click the BF2 shortcut icon and add +szx 1280 +szy 1024 to the end of the Target command. If you have a widescreen monitor, make sure you change +fullscreen to +widescreen.
(You should set the resoloution to whatever is native for your monitor, i just used 1280x1024 as an example.)

Or you can plug your old CRT in for a moment and then set the resoloution down, then plug the HD TV back in again.
