    These errors can be caused by a software conflict while installing the update, by Internet connection issues, or by corruption in the software files. To make sure you have a clean installation of the game, please perform the following steps:

    1. Manually uninstall the game.
    2. Use your Spyware removal tools to remove any malware and adware from your machine.
    3. Perform a Disk Cleanup, Scandisk, and Defragmentation
    4. End all background tasks
    5. Empty your Temp folder
    6. Install Battlefield 2142.
    7. Download the update from a reliable mirror site. For example, the best mirror site for the U.S. would be the Battlefield 2142 main site or the EAFTP server.
      • The EA FTP can be found ere.
    8. Make sure that you have at least 3 gigabytes of free space on the drive before attempting to install the update.
      • Note: Make sure to patch the game again after installing Northern Strike.
    9. Manually update PunkBuster by downloading and installing the correct PBSetup files for your operating system, clicking "Add a Game," selecting Battlefield 2142 from the dropdown menu (or by browsing to the folder where the game is installed), and clicking "Check For Updates."
