When asking for help,
please remember to post your:
Operating System (OS)
systems specs (MoBo, GFX, Audio, generally hardware),
network setup (router-model, direct connection, DSL, 36k-modem, how many clients)
And a brief history before and after problem started. (Did you change anything? new drivers, new Anti-Vir...)
Please describe as precise as possible when your problem hits and
what you have already tried.


there are different kinds of md5tool kicks - so you have to tell us which one you are getting
pb often does not update correctly so here is how to update punkbuster manually:

and a side note: we are making this for free, we do not get money from anyone for helping - so if there is a way to help reduce the amount of threads by simply looking up a solution for your problem yourself - i think thats not too much to ask...

I have been having a similar problem with BF2 PR servers...I am being kicked by Punkbuster after 10 min of play and the msg is MD5Tool Mismatch----dbghelp.dll; I am not cheating and read on several other treads that the file might be corrupt and should be replaced; well i downloaded a file from my office computer but when i drag the new file onto the existing one it does not replace.....why I cannot replace this file?
I have Windows XP.
Also i upgraded Bf2 to 1.51 and Pr to 0.87

Any help will be appreciated.

You need to make sure that BF2 is shut down when you try to replace it. I suggest instead of trying to replace, try to remove the dbghelp.dll from the folder, then place the dll you got from your other computer in the folder.
