[PC, Just bought and installed the game] Getting kicked for aimbot for 2 minutes

Hello!
Today I bought battlefield 4 and downloaded the free dlc's from origin. The very first server I tried to join kicked me with the following message: "Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'Shadowcify' (for 2 minutes) ... Violation (AIMBOT) #51127"
I tried multiple servers but I got kicked everytime after spending about 20 seconds in-game.
Now, I have never cheated before and I have never been banned for cheating either so I really don't know what's going on.I also updated punkbuster and turned off msi afterburner but the problem remains. I really don't know what to do. I searched the punkbuster banlist for both my name (Shadowcify) and GUID but couldn't find anything so I'm pretty sure I'm not banned.

Again this is only in Battlefield 4, I can play Battlefield 3 without any problems.

Any help or input is appreciated

Thanks

battlefield 4

    Hello @Shadowcify.

    At first u can try reinstall PB in this way:

    - download this, unpack it, run\install it as Admin, add games in a list;

    - download this, run\install it as Admin;

    - restart PC, close\disable programs like this, run Origin as Admin, try to play.

    Hey thanks for the reply!

    I did everything you suggested but to no avail. I added everything related to origin and Battlefield 4 as an exception on both my firewall and antivirus. I reinstalled punkbuster and did their test on the installer which succeeded. However I got to play for about 30 seconds before I got kick for the same reason but the kick duration was 5 minutes this time. Battlefield 3 is still working without me getting kicked. I really have no idea what is causing the kick since it's the same anticheat for both games.

    I am so confused on what is causing this ☹️

    Could be a local ban on that server. Have you tried playing many different servers?

    This is not an issue with the Punkbuster service/program on the OP's computer. He was kicked for AIMBOT. Did you even read his post?

    OP - If you ban was issued at the server level then you will need to appeal with the server admins. If your ban was issued by evenbalance then you will need to appeal with them.

    Not one single person on this forum can help with Bans. Period

    @Carbonic Yes I have played on different servers but I still get kicked.

    @RustedRootThat is impossible since I have never played battlefield 4 before. So you are saying I am getting kicked because I have been banned on every battlefield 4 server by every single server admin out there without even playing the game? Seems highly unlikely since my account has never been hijacked. I can also play on any battlefield 3 server without getting kicked for any reason.

    Also to clarify this is not about a ban, I am getting kicked from the server and not banned. If I was banned then I wouldn't be able to join again. My account is also not in any ban database.

    @MADrag0n Unfortunately I couldn't launch origin since my graphics drivers aren't loaded in clean boot with windows.

    u r wrong, "clean boot" is not a "safe boot" and graphic driver is loaded as usual
