Repeated loss of connection right after joining

[A. Reaper]

Simply, after about 30 seconds in-game, PR loses connection to server. This does not happen in any other BF2 mod for me, just PR.

After install, I changed BF2.exe for retail one (I have Steam), installed everything in right order, and only got one game, till eventually I lost connection. And since, it keeps losing connections.

Main 2 reasons:
1. "Connection lost" (doesn't give an actual reason)
2. "Losing Packets 9005" (I'm not big on computers, so I'm not sure what this means)

I'd be very happy if someone could tell me how to keep the connection up, because I can't really get into the action because of it.

You must run PR as administrator or Punkbuster will run on low priority and will cause disconnects.

Alternatively you can download and run pbsvc as administrator to reinstall and check PB services. Reboot after doing so.

Thanks Massive, I'll see if it works now.
