Hey guys, I was playing fine lastnight for around 30 mins. Then tonight I was getting kicked off many servers 2 mins into the game. It said "Game Disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster.Stated Reason: PunkBuster kicked player xxx (for 0 minutes) - Visit www.evenbalance.com to manually update your PB files.
So I went to the site and updated my PB files and it currently looks like this:
Client Version (v2.332 | A1390)
Server Version (v1.880 | A1390 | C2.332)
I have tried updating several times but it tells me I have the latest already. After a reboot, I'm still getting kicked by PB after a min or so.
Anyone getting my same problem?
Close everything.
Relog onto Origin>right click on bf4> repair install

Hi guys, thanks for your prompt response. Unfortunately, neither solution works.
After closing everything and repairing BF4, it ended up saying nothing was corrupt. Re-ran and the same problem occurred.
insmithereens: I ran pbsvc.exe in the redist folder then did the Install/Re-install option. It starts checking then I suddenly run into a "Failed to copy the file ......pbsvc.exe to C:\Windows\System32\pbsvc.exe (error 5: access is denied). If I press OK, then press Next to proceed to Step 3, I receive Tests completed successfully without error.
I tried manually copying pbsvc.exe into the system32 folder, then ran it, but found the exact same above symptons.
Any other ideas?
Did you download the pb.exe from evenbalance? Then search for BF4 in the app and install new files? make sure it is the client set.
I get the message:
Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player '' (for 0 minutes) ... This PB Server Requires (A1388 C2.327) - Error loading pbag
don't know anything about this last part - pabg error
In another thread someone said the old version of pb worked, how can i go back to the older verison?
I've noticed that only some servers kicks me giving me the PB error. I did check to confirm that the servers that I was on both kicking and not kicking infact have PB set on. Also worth noting that the ones kicking me did have players in it playing.
Well this method actually did work for me. I played a game without getting kicked. I made sure first to close Origin and BF4 with the task manager before installing the update. Thanks for the tip though.
