Punkbuster problem

Post by Lokai »

Hey guys there is a bit of topics about this already but ive tried everything in them and none of it works..most of the stuff is from this thread https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f26-pr-bugs/45746-0909-service-abnormality.html#post1259869. Every time I join a server I get kicked by punkbuster from anywhere to 5 seconds into the game to 5 minutes, usually in the seconds though. It tells me I have been kicked by punkbuster for.. "Restriction: Unknown Windows API Function (131125)". I've updated punkbuster and used their tool to update BF2 and I've also turned off all my Spyware/Virus/Firewall programs and the problem persists. Anyone know anything I have tried or anything at all? I would appreciate it. Love this mod and I play I've played it with my brother and cousin for years and this is new for me from this new version (0.9).

If anyone else runs into this problem, I submitted a ticket to Punkbuster and got back this reply which fixed the problem , "If you are running Airfoil to stream music to an Apple Airport, run the Threatfire firewall, or use Spyware Doctor, please shut it down before starting a PB-enabled game. This should resolve your kick. " pretty sure it was the Apple software that I turned off at start up that I didn't even know was running.
