So after all the troubles I have today with my new PC I finally get everything to work. But once the map loads up and I "join a squad" I get kicked by PB for "Inadequete O/S privelages"

I did a search with that but nothing came up.


PLEASE HELP--so close to playing on my new PC

sorry guys. So- through all the searching I figured out I needed to run game as Administrator. So everything works fine.

But now.....

I am getting huge lag spikes (pinging at 700+!!!) and then eventually get kicked from server for Punkbuster Error "This PR Server requires (A1342 c2.194) Error Loading pbci

Any ideas? I'm so close I can taste it. I'm running a Dell XPS with Vista 64

(ps I edited that comment to "I need a drink" because I went on a rant cursing up a storm.)

I noticed ;)

and have you updated PB at all with pbsetup since your install?

You need to get a tool called pbsetup.exe to manually update your punkbuster

I was going to, but the link is nothing but a blank page today. (am i wrong?)

I just submitted a ticket to PB. Can you send me the link for the DL because the one I went to is nothing but a white blank page? haha (7 hours of misery.)
