For me the problem was ExpressVPN. I had to disable all of its services to be able to play BF2042 without crashing to Desktop or a BSOD. I believe the EA anti-cheat software is considering it cheating software even though I wasn't actively using a VPN when playing BF2042, and I am not sure how a VPN would help me cheat anyway.
Maybe you should check for similar Windows services on your computer and stop them; you might have to do it after every reboot if you don't disable the services.
Hopefully EA can fix their anti-cheat software to whitelist ExpressVPN and other affected applications.
