    Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'screech8214' (for 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrA.exe

    Hello,


    1. Open windows firewall
    2. click advanced settings( on the left) and then inbound (also left)
    3. Find PnkbstrA.exe and PnkbstrB.exe (if you have two of both, its fine)
    4. right click on each of them>properties>programs and services
    5. make sure that "all programs that meet the spesifications" is checked
    6. then go to the "Advanced" tab and check all 3 boxes. Domain, Private and Public.
    7. REMEMBER TO DO THIS FOR ALL PnkBstr Files. then save and quit.
    8. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4 and delete "Pb" folder.
    9. go to these 2 links:
    http://websec.evenbalance.com/downloader/download.php?file=1
    http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe
    10. download and install both
    11. Run Pbsetup.exe (the first link)
    12. add a game (eg. bf4)
    13. check for updates.
