BF4 I always get kicked by: PunkBuster

I am having an issue it has only happened recently. I join games and i can play fine but after a period of time i will be kicked by punk buster for Disallowed program/driver. this is the error message i get. Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'CkZShadoW' (for 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Disallowed Program/Driver [89262]. It is rather annoying and hinders my experience on the game any help would be greatfully recieved.

    I've been looking for a solution to this issue for a while now and what I've noticed is your total lack of any form of FIX for the issue. Plenty of INSTRUCTIONS telling US what to do, turn this off, turn that on , cancel this etc, but how about just FIXING the bloody issue. We pay good money for a game and then get issue upon issue . Just fix this punkbuster problem ffs. NOW!!!

    Just fix it please. We should not need to jump through hoops to get the game to work. That's what you are paid for.

    This happening to me on a brand new computer. Fresh install of Windows and Battlefield, as well as updated Punkbuster.

    I suspect that it's my Razor Synapse software that I installed for my mouse/keyboard, but this is ridiculous. There should be an exception for this. It's not a cheat of any kind. How has this issue persisted for this long without any solution?

    Easy there killer.  You can't sue EA or Punkbuster or anyone else because there is this issue.  I've been having the same problem but it happens so rarely that it doesn't affect my love for the game.  Try all of the things mentioned in one of the replies for fixing the game.  It may be time consuming and annoying but it's worth at least trying.
