[0.981] PB kicking me after a few moments

Post by Frontliner »

Error message given is Disallow Program/Driver 125083

I'm using a copy over Steam, but I was able to play with it previously just fine(except some start up issues when loading PR but these are gone now and unrelated to my current problem). Steam Overlay is disabled.

My best guess based on past experience with this error code, You have another overlay program running , one that is disallowed by punkbuster. Or you have a USB keyboard that has an overlay, such as the Logitech G series. (G35 being most common keyboard.)

MSI afterburner for example. just use the "stealth mode" in MSI Afterburner

Asus AI Suite is another. turn off the overlay.

Turn ALL of your overlays off before starting PR for multiplayer online play.

Do you own a Logitech G series keyboard, or any other fancy keyboard?

Forgot to disable McAfee.

Solved.

Interesting that McAfee causes such a driver PB kick. Mentally noted. :)

Thanks for letting us know what the issue was.
