There I was loading up Dalian plant when the server crashed (not CTD) I tried joining another server but I keep getting an error message stating "You Must Have PunkBuster Enabled to Play on This Server"(which I do) I have checked and unchecked the punkbuster box on the main server screen but it has not solved the problem.
I have reinstalled BF2 and patched it all the way up to 1.3 - still not working.
I tried manually updating/remove/reinstall Punkbuster but with no joy.
I also tried a System Restore but again that has not solved the problem.
Any ideas as to what is causing this problem

God if thing could not get any worse since patch 1.3

I had the same prob when I tried the 1.4 patch. I just needed to download a new version of punkbuster, then it worked for me. But I'm assuming when you said you reinstalled punk buster that you ALSO meant that you got a new version from the net, correct ?

Then I'm kindof at a loss for what to do.
What I did was simply:

* Uninstall BF.
* Reinstall BF/BF2S/EF/AF
* Install full patch 1.3 (not sure if I did this before or after the EF&AF install), and it NEEDS to be full patch, not incremental.
* Played for a while
* Then updated PB (again) because of CTDs


Have you tried disabling your Antivirus software and/or your firewall ? I know this is a bad idea when going online, but it MIGHT be an incompatiblity problem with one of these.
