Answer
PROBLEM:
When trying to connect to multiplayer Internet game the user receives an error indicating that either their serial number is already in use.
SOLUTION:
Battlefield 1942 can be played on two systems using the same CD key only on a LAN game. If you would like to run multiple connections of Battlefield 1942 on the Internet you will need to purchase a copy for each system and use the supplied CD key that comes with each copy.

If you have never given your CD key to anyone and only have one system connected to the internet and are receive the "CD key in use" message, try the following:
1) Click on Tools in on you internet explorer
2) Click on internet options
