Hello,
Make sure your anti-virus is not blocking punkbuster, also check windows firewall.
Punkbuster has 2 services running in the background in order to check your PC for hacks or 3rd party programs influencing the game.
They are called:
PnkbstraA
In order to enable both do:
1. Press Windows button and R at the same time
2. enter "Services.msc"
3. Locate PnkBstraA on the list
4. Mark both and select "Start the service" on the left side.
4B. If already running restart it.
This should resolve your issue.
Regards, Libever
None of this is working for me. i turned off my antivirus software, firewall and nothing is working. I don't know if Punkbuster is assuming i'm hacking or cheating but it's really PISSING ME OFF!!!!!!. I love Battlefield enough to not even want to Hack. it's gonna take a miracle to get this fixed.
This happened to me too and I could correct it with this:
Download PunkBuster (http://websec2.evenbalance.com/downloader/download.php) Add the target game to PB and then search for *"insert target game name"Game.exe* (I had this problem with BFBC2 so it was BFBC2Game) in the origin games folder and launch it as administrator. Worked fine for me. I recommend restarting the computer after adding the game to PB and executing just the game, close Origin and other unnecessary programs.
