PB Kicking

[DevilDog812]

when i get into any PR game, my screen freezes up and then i get kicked to the server menu again. sometimes it is handshaking errors, sometimes it is initialization errors. i dont have any other programs besides PR except xfire or mumble sometimes. i tried everything i found on here, but i cant reinstall BF2, because i lost my CD. im using a no-cd crack (different exe so that i dont need a disk) it said however, that it didnt affect punkbuster when i downloaded it, and i never had problems before. it really sucks because i wait 5 minutes for my game to load (maybe a bit of an exaggeration) and then i get kicked. then i rejoin and get kicked multiple times after that, so i have to just quit. any ideas to get this working? ill probably just have to save up money and buy bf2 again

Could try using this: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f27-pr ... ailed.html

Really helped me out with most of the initialization failure errors.

Directions are on this post.

PS it says its Win 7, but I have XP so it should work for Vista too.
