No Servers? Says I have an outdated version?

I have the latest PR, and I have been playing happily up until about two days ago. All of the sudden I can not join any servers, and they are all highlighted in red, meaning I have an out of date version? Did I miss an update for PR, and everyone knew about it but me, or did something go corrupt in my files?

Thanks for the help
Joe

You definitely have the ‘server filters’ tick boxes setup correctly?
One wrong ticked box can cause this.
Are the servers that show red, PR servers that you regularly play on?

Don’t take offence, just asking some simple questions to check the obvious.

Edit:

Figured out the problem. I downloaded a No-CD EXE for BF2 so I would not have to put the CD in every time I play. I restored the EXE and everything works fine

I wouldnt use one of them, Punkbuster will think its a hack if im correct and kick you from the servers, maybe even ban your PBGUID.

Ya I tried that with vanilla a while back and PB kept kicking me so I just reinstalled the .exe and it returned to normal.

Ugh I hate switching cd's to play different games...

the no-cd is only for vbf2 1.4 NOT 1.41, so you will have a 1.4 version of BF2 after the no-cd patch.
if you want to play without the cd, you have to use a virtual drive solution. works fine.
