    Problems with Win8 is almost entirely due to driver problems. Downgrading to Windows 7 only solves the problems as it has less bugfilled drivers for old hardware.

    To check for Punkbuster errors try installing punkbuster again and update it through the steps in here: https://help.ea.com/article/battlefield-3-punkbuster-error

    Remember to accept the solution if it's correct and press the XP button if somebody helped.
