Battlefield Bad Company 2 punkbuster

A couple of months ago, i bought bfbc2, then I uninstalled it for a while and now I would like to play the game again. But when i hit install it says that I have to install a punkbuster client, so I do that. An exe file is starting and installing it but in the end it says that something is not found and it quits. When I try to launch the game it says that I need to install it and the same problem pops up. 

Some help please?

    If you having trouble with your PunkBuster service aka getting kicked by the server, you should consider updating PB. Our player theevilholy created a good Punkbuster FaQ in the battlefield board.

    If that link helped, let us know and give theevilholy XP for his work. If not, please reply that we can find possible other workarounds!


    Please keep in mind that some severs having special rules for use of weapons or several other game mechanics. It can be that you are kicked from a server because of use of a special weapon or other server restriction.


    I also recommend updating your firewall/antivirus software and closing all not necessary third party applications.

  • That is not the problem, the problem is that i cant launch the game because I have to install punkbuster and when it is done installing, I still cant launch the game. All it says when i drag the mouse over it is "install" and then I have to install the punkbuster service.

    My problem is that the game will not install properly. Maybe the punkbuster service is installing as it should, but when it is finished my only option is to install the game. And when I do it, the same proplem comes up. 

    Thanks for any answer
