Try right-clicking on the game icon, select properties, and then click on the compatibility tab. Set it to Windows XP SP1 or 2 and put a check in the box for "always run as administrator". Generally those two things will fix this issue on older games with Windows 7.

didn`t work.not having compatibility issues.having communication issues.theres probably a trial and error list to go through.i have latest pb update.pc is a alienware aurora.with the killer xeno card

Have you checked to make sure that pnkbstrA and B are allowed to connect through the firewall? Secondly, if the router has it's own firewall, you'll need to check and make sure they're allowed there as well. Windows 7's firewall is on by default.

turned the routers firewall off.that worked on one server.then went to another server and got kicked for pnkbstrb.exe.communication failure handshaking failed.don`t now why i played on a server and not the other.both were pb streaming servers.could it be the killer xeno card

test completed without error

 

And still you keep getting kicked? That indicates some other software i.e. firewall, antivirus, etc is conflicting with the PB.

All I can suggest now is, you better open the ticket with EB.

Also add a complete list of installed hardware and driver revisions along with operating system and a fairly detailed description including the exact kick error you're receiving. The more information you provide, the better they can help you.
