Problems With Punkbuster
I cant play online games with punkbuster on it. For instance, when I play the
Battlefield 2142 Online Demo, I cant join servers with punkbuster on it but I can join servers without punkbuster. The same with Wolfenstein Enemy Territory. Is there anyway to fix punkbuster?

Problems With Punkbuster
It will not work until Vista has been RTM. I have the same problem when
trying to play America's Army, it tells me I have an OS violation. I contacted punkbuster and they said when Vista was finalized then it would be supported.

Problems With Punkbuster
Punkbuster itself needs to be updated to work with Windows Vista. There's
nothing in the RTM version of Windows Vista that will fix existing versions of Punkbuster. -- Chuck Walbourn SDE, Game Technology Group This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

If I remember correctly the game needs to be run elevated.

Problems With Punkbuster
Info from the America's Army forum:
i am running the 32 bit version of vista and have had no problems with 2.7 i know a person who installed the 64 bit version and kept getting kicked by pb he then installed the 32 bit version of vista and has been playing all day with 2.7 with no problem. Hope this helps... "Keeep Out" wrote: I cant play online games with punkbuster on it.

Problems With Punkbuster
Punkbuster as it stands does not support x64 nor does it work with User
Account Control without manual elevation of the entire game using it. -- Chuck Walbourn SDE, Game Technology Group This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Note: These are issues only Even Balance can fix. We've already run out of
appcompat fix options with this particular technology. -- Chuck Walbourn SDE, Game Technology Group This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Right click on the shortcut and choose "Run as Administrator".
There's also an option in the shortcut somewhere to make this permanent. "Keeep Out" wrote: I cant play online games with punkbuster on it.

Problems With Punkbuster
i can play wolfenstein on a 64bit rtm....
it plays on most servers and on some servers i get kicked for punkbuster... the only problem i have is with the graphic quality...i don't know if its because of glass or because the graphic drivers are still beta but they were much better for me wether in previous builds or in winXP. gerald "Chuck Walbourn [MSFT]" wrote in message ...
