I had a similar error a long time ago, and end result was wipe of the hard drive, and format c:\. Was a nasty string of spyware that I couldn't seem to get rid of that modified the admin privileges looked at by PB. | ||

I tried the page that Blazer posted but didnt find an answer so im back to square 1 again lol any other thoughts are very welcome Thanks Chris [ Edited Mon Feb 26 2007 ] | ||

| Registered Member #1153 Joined: Sun Mar 19 2006Location: USA Posts: 22 | how about this Coolie ? "How can I run my game with PunkBuster support under Windows Vista? " To run PunkBuster under Windows Vista you will need to run the game as an administrator. To do this, right click the icon you use to launch the game. Select "Properties", then the "Compatability" tab. From that tab, check the box labled "Run this program as an Administrator" and click ok. We are currently exploring methods to extend PunkBuster to work with Vista without requiring users to run as admin. | ||

(\NovaLogic\Joint Operations Typhoon Rising\pb) 1.Install JO under Vista. 2.Install PunkBuster. 3.Delete pb folder (\NovaLogic\Joint Operations Typhoon Rising\pb). 4.Copy pb folder from XP install. 5.Right click shortcut to JO -> Properties -> Compatibillity, check "Run this program in compatibillity mode" Choose "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)". Check "Run this program as an administrator" The same applies for JO:ESC, just do step 5, but with JO:ESC shortcut. If you have a NVIDIA card, disable DDI Threading to prevent glitches an artifacts. | ||
