Pb problem, driving me mad


(nwotje) #1

After reinstalling the game again after a long while, fully patched and a fully upto date punkbuster im still getting kicks after ten minute or so of playing, with md5 tool queries or just generally not responding to queries among other errors relating to PB. Ive tried literally everything I can find on the net and nothing is working. My system is alot older than most, still runs XP and sp1 but never had a problem in the past… any help would be appreciated.

Problems with MD5Tool queries can be sometimes solved with running the pbsvc.exe and restarting. If you’re a Windows user.

thanks I will try that, sometimes its not md5 and sometimes it is, all PB related though, seems to not be connecting with the server, although I am issued a GUID every time I get on one. The self updater just gives me errors when trying to download the files too. Could be router related but not sure how to turn off SPI on this router, as its not in the settings…
