You have to play BF2 using a Windows account with Administrator rights.  You can't play BF2 with PB with the Limited account.

WHAT THE FUCK?! You have serioius problems. I suggest you go away and fix them.

Anyway. Can't you run BF2/PB on a limited account? That would explain some of the weird messages I got a few months ago.


EDIT: Looks like the guy deleted his post. Ignore the first two sentences.

bf2 can only be played from 1 windows account.

even if both have admin rights,

bf2 can only be played from the account it was installed on.

Yeah, I figured out how to fix that. You have to re-enter the CD-key into the registry (not sure which key). It works - which is why I can play now.

Ok, so I was playing along just fine tonight and then all of a sudden started to get kicked by PunkBuster just like the other people in this thread.  I went to the updater site like you all recommended and when I tried to get the update I get this error...

Update Check Failed

Dowloading a global config file failed for the following reason:

Failed to connect to 204.193.156.11: Invalid arguments


So what now?

And yes I'm playing on the admin account and I have tried disabling my virus scanner.
