hi,
i have BF2 1.5 installed properly and the PR 0.87 core and levels and SP but there are no servers on the server list. My pb is also up to date can someone help me please? :S
thanks

I have this prom too, except it only shows one empty server that is useless. So I just play SP)

BF2 not updated to v 1.41 before patching with v1.5?
Run 1.41 patch + 1.5
It is recommended that you restart your system after you install/uninstall programs to ensure all installed components, files and registry entries are correctly installed or removed.
Also PRSP should have installed in its own folder inside the 'mods' folder correct?

Before you go online to join a server
you should manually update PB:

1. Download pbsvc
2. Start pbsvc installer, you should see options for install, uninstall, test.
3. Run the Uninstaller, then delete the PB folder to remove any leftover files.
4. Restart your computer.
5. reinstall punk buster files with pbsvc( if your using Vista DO NOT set compatibility to XP, run as admin ok)
6. After pcsvc installs, click the "test" option to check the punk buster install you just did.
5. Make sure it comes back "all green"
6.Download pbsetup(pbsvc DOES NOT

install pbsetup.
If your using Vista DO NOT set compatibility to XP, run as admin ok)
7.Create a pbsvc installer shortcut AND pbsetup program shortcut on your desktop.
8.Run pbsetup (from the shortcut on your desktop) add BF2 to the games list, then hit update."

(pbsvc installs the punk buster 'engines' or applications.
PBsetup installs the files/gas the 'engines run)


Firewall not set up (open) for BF2 and punk buster
UPDATE YOUR FIREWALL

Make sure your firewall has permission for:

BF2.EXE
PBSETUP.EXE
(search for your location)

PNKBSTRA.EXE
path:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSWOW64\PNKBSTRA.EXE
or (not 100% sure but for 32 bit O/S I think it's)C:\WINDOWS\SYSWOW32\PNKBSTRA.EXE
PnkBstrB.exe
path:
"C:\Users\"your user name here"\AppData\Roaming\PnkBstrB.exe"

Hope it helps

thanks man its fixed
im not sure if i needed to update all that PB stuff cuz i tried it all then ran pr and no servers appeared then i opened up my zone alarm and had to manually allow BF2 access to trusted zone and stuff.
