Weird Punkbuster Error

Mr.Bond · Post by **Mr.Bond** » 2008-01-01 09:54

I'm trying to get onto the thebattlearena.com server which has Al Basra running (<3) and I get kicked about 5 seconds after I join the server I get the error RESTRICTION: Inadequate O/S Privileges. This makes no sense, I'm using an admin account on my O/S and it's giving me this error. I just upgraded to Vista Home Basic a few days ago, if you guys can help please post. Danke.

Also, this didn't happen with .6 or on any other server, I'm not sure if it's Al Basrah specific or what but I'll leave it in bugs until we can pin point it.

Inadequate O/S Privileges

Vista Home Basic

Says it all really.Try running under compatibility with XP,service pack 2.

I've tested it and it's only on Al Basrah so it probably is a bug.

Go C:\Program Files\EA Games\BattleField 2\bf2.exe right click it, go to properties, and click on compatability, set it to run as Administrator.
