try reinstalling teh game

[starjax]

download pbweb the the bf2\pb folder and run pbweb.exe to update punkbuster

I get the same thing with bf 1942 "restrictions inadequate O/S.... 507" Have dled and ran pbweb as well as the pbsec files , nothing... for the last several months , pb has been the punk.

im looking into it. Im more up on COD than battlefield. I'm just checking on the actuall error number to verify (507). lets start by manually updating punkbuster. download pbweb.exe from evenbalance and place it into you bf2\pb folder. application must be run from withing that folder.

ok now im gonna need a walk through on how to do that ...sorry for the inconvinence

i am very thankfull for ur help

[starjax]

I have used "call of duty" as an example. just replace the program path with battlefield

This is the executable for Punkbusters Client side AUTO UPDATING using WINDOWS Operating Systems:
http://www.evenbalan...loads/pbweb.exe

Be sure to save the pbweb.exe into the home "pb" folder (C:\Program Files\Call of Duty\pb) on your hard drive and then launch PBWEB.exe. If PBWEB is not launched from inside the home "pb" directory/folder, then it will not work.

This is the easiest way to AUTO update Punkbusters from the player/client side. The game server does NOT update ALL of your game files. This way will do that for you!

I would recommend doing this even if your not having problems or if your having 999 problems along with No Packet Flow errors & PB Initialization Failures.

This can take a little while to run........this is typical!

You can save pbweb.exe into the pb folder for any punkbuster supported game per the example above.

thanx alot ill try it....ill get back to ya

[creepindeath17]

ok now im havin a problem installing pbwed.exe....can you tell me how to save it strait into the bf2 pb folder....im not sure if im doin it right im sorry for being such a problem.....im very very thankful for ur help

[starjax]

when you download it, just save it to the battlefield2\pb folder. then go to that location and doubleclick on the pbweb.exe and it will run for you. No install needed.

[creepindeath17]

ok ill give it a try again...
