Deus found on torrents:
We can see, that this loader should help if you have no CD, or if you are bored of still using CD...Empire Earth II: Platinum Edition - Fully Working Online Multiplayer – Official Game Server
Intallation notes:
You may need to delete myconfig.cfg if version does not match by installing.
Keys (Required to play multiplayer on the official server):

Loader (using this loader allows you to play the game without any limitations):
In order to play the full game version online on the official game server always run the loader first and then using its interface open EE2.exe if you want to play the base game or EE2X.exe if you desire to play the expansion. If you are using Windows Vista, then you must run the loader as administrator (right click on it, then choose "Run as administrator").
The trial resetter is only needed if you forgot to run the loader first and there is no more trial time left.
Important notes:
The loader works well, even on Vista 64 bit (it must be run as administrator).
Unfortunately this loader is not working on Windows 7 64 bit and the game's protection detects virtual machines like Virtual PC or VMware, but in Windows 7 you can create a new partition (just by shrinking the drive) and install another version of Windows (preferably XP) and play online using the loader. You can install Windows on an USB flash drive too; just make sure it has a fast transfer speed otherwise it would be too slow.
Enjoy!
Loader you can download here:
