I found this is a official forum news. on www.battlefield1942.com

CD-Swapping in 1.45
We are looking at a fix for this. The issue isn't just that the Battlefield SafeDisk check has to work with Road to Rome and Secret Weapons, but we have to ensure that it works with mods as well. This has required a lengthier development time. However, we are dedicated to getting a fix in place ASAP. Please stay tuned for updates.

Virtual Drives
Is Secret Weapons not working on your machine? Do you have a virtual CD-drive installed. To fix, uninstall both Secret Weapons and the virtual drive. Reinstall Secret Weapons using your standard CD/DVD-drive. That should fix the issue. Get out there and kick SW-butt.

CDKey Misprint
Some copies of Secret Weapons had a misprinted CDKey on the actual CD-case. This results in the lower part of a letter being cut-off. The only letter this affects is the letter Q which appears like an O. If you have trouble installing Secret Weapons, check to see if you have the letter O in your CDkey. If so, try substituting Q for it. If the problem persists, please contact our Tech Support and they will be able to help sort out the issue.

Maybe that would help some people!

Edit:
Comment about CD-Swapping:
Why dose EA even think about a fix for that? Do what other companies do, screw the SafeDisc protection after sometime! You don't need to have protection at so long time. EA is the only company that don't give out games, without protection. And that is SafeDisc protection. Rockstar Game; GTA 3 patch 1.1 no SafeDisc, SI Game's; Championchip manager 4.08 no SecuROM, Codemasters; Operation Flashpoint 1.92 BETA no SafeDisc (and no Fade but there are fade error message); many companys that have problems with protection often take off the protection! Do it you to EA Games, "challange everything"....(is there slogan...oh dear...)
