Hey was just wondering if anyone could help me out. I reinstalled bf2 yesterday because my sister downloaded a file into a bf2 folder and it stopped it working. After reinstalling the file remained there so i looked for it, found and deleted it. It was able to load up then, so i had a quick round of in an unpatched server and quit out to get 1.41 again. After downloading and patching, i tried to log in but when i click the login button at the login screen i get the message "Server has refused the connection" Any tips on whats causing this because its really getting to me now. Cheers guys
"Server has refused the connection" usually means you are not connected to the internet. but if you are try full re-install
No i have an excellent connection and i havent has this prob before and i have reinstalled and patched before.
Have you tried this? blah blah blah
1. Manually update your punkbuster using pbsetup.exe (just to be safe)
2. Download pbsvc.exe from PB.
3. Run it, select the uninstall option.
4. Run it again, select the install option.
5. Reboot if you want, just in case. I didn't and it worked fine for me.

dose it do it on all the acounts you have got or just the one if so just reinstall the bf2 and the mods and punkbuster then restart you modem and computer if that dose not work try makeing a new account. or just defrag or scan your computer and it might find the problem.

Disable your firewall, I had an issue like that with the McAffee firewall a while back ago. Tell me if it works.
Could try deleting your profiles folder in my documents, you will have to re enter your details and options and stuff, but I have found that this can help with problems like this.
hey i tried the firewall disabling before going to bed there and it worked for a while but i got disconnected from a game bout 15 minutes in and lost my xfire connection too. i dont think its a problem with bf, just my useless pc. Il be getting a laptop in a few weeks anyway so il be ok then. Il post more info tomorrow, thanks for suggestions
