XP Maybe a temporary fix! Try it now!

Hey guys, I know a lot of you, including myself are having problems being kicked by punkbuster, or CTD all the time. Well thanks to S.Proffit, I may have a temporary fix. Worked for me and 2 other people. Worked for me on XP 32 bit, and two friends on Vista 32 bit.

Step 1:
Go to your BF2 game folder and delete the punkbuster file, should say PB.

Step 2:
Go to control panel, add/remove programs, and uninstall PB Services.

Step 3:
Download pbsvc.exe from this link http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe

Step 4:
Install punkbuster

Step 5:
Install pbsetup.exe from here PunkBuster Online Countermeasures
and update punkbuster

Step 6:
Download battlefield cleaner from here
Download Battlefield Cleaner (v2)
and clean all the caches.

Step 7:
Restart your PC

Step 8:
Start up PR and go to graphics settings, change all settings to medium.

Step 9:
Go to audio settings and change audio from software to hardware

Step 10:
Enjoy not being kicked or crashing to desktop! (Hopefully)

Thanks and I hope it works,
Brick

Umm, yeah who the hell wants to do that if they play on all high already?? Screw that. Game looks like crap on Medium.

Try just turning textures down to medium. I play on all high too and I just turned textures down to medium and no more CTD.

Seems to be working.
Thanks for finding + posting this.

No problem guys, spread the word! That way we can get more players in game and not complaining on the support forums lol.

[zvenner]

Still the same problem ...

The weird thing is, that it works perfectly in Co-op lan mode ...

[xXbrick84Xx]

Hmmmm. What OS you got?
