Getting booted by punk buster

[varkunus]

Hi guys you might have seen my other thread about having problems getting the game to work. Well I have got it working now - sort of! After I have been on a server for a few minutes I get this message (see screenshot).

I didnt know how to put screenshot in other thread thats why i started new one.

Simple. Update Punkbuster.

PunkBuster Online Countermeasures

[varkunus]

And how do I do that, on all other games Ive played it does it automatically. Could you direct me to a link or something on how to do it manually?

******* program.

1. Download pbsvc
2. Start pbsvc installer, you should see options for install, uninstall, test.
3. Run the Uninstaller, then delete the PB folder to remove any leftover files.
4. Restart your computer.
5. reinstall punk buster files with pbsvc( if your using Vista DO NOT set compatibility to XP, run as admin ok)
6. After pcsvc installs, click the "test" option to check the punk buster install you just did.
5. Make sure it comes back "all green"
6.Download pbsetup(pbsvc DOES NOT install pbsetup.
If your using Vista DO NOT set compatibility to XP, run as admin ok)
7.Create a pbsvc installer shortcut AND pbsetup program shortcut on your desktop.
8.Run pbsetup (from the shortcut on your desktop) add BF2 to the games list, then hit update."

(pbsvc installs the punk buster 'engines' or applications.
PBsetup installs the files/gas the 'engines run)
