fozzer Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Question: Punkbuster kicks me after two minutes play with this message PUNKBUSTER You have been kicked via PunkBuster (for 0 minutes) Violation (COMFAIL) #132 Answer: Make sure you run the game under an Administrator or equivalent account under Windows. If you are not using an admin account, you can right click on the application you want to run and select "Run As". This will allow you to give admin access to that program and should allow you to play with a limited user. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikesg Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 (edited) Yeah me too. I was getting kicked for this: Punkbuster kicked player '-IRC-MIKE' (for 2 minutes)...VIOLATION (IGNORING QUERIES) #9006 I restored my computer to the earliest possible time, and used the pbsetup.exe from evenbalance to install punkbuster again, and I added the two games: America's Army and Call of Duty 4; And rebooted. Now I am getting kicked for this: -IRC-MIKE Punkbuster kicked player '-IRC-MIKE' (For 0 minutes)...Violaiton (COMFAIL)#132 I have no idea how to fix it and the next thing I can think of is to uninstall COD4 and reinstall the game, but before I do I am waiting on a response on my trouble ticket that I have submitted to evenbalance.

The Humungus Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I had the exact same problem in COD 4. This fixed it. Here is what Evenbalance suggested to do: "Note #2: Please get the PB service component installer PBSVC from this URL: http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe Save it to your desktop. You will need to start it with Admin rights. On Windows Vista just being logged in as Admin is not enough. To start the file with Admin rights on Vista, select the PBSVC executable and right click it. Select "Properties", then the "Compatibility" tab. From that tab, check the box labeled "Run this program as an Administrator" and click OK. Follow the install process and make sure it installs correctly. After that you will be able to play the game without the need of Admin rights. You only need to follow these steps only once (not for every PB supported game and not on each game start). Please make sure you allow the service files in security software like virus scanners and/or firewalls. You will need to allow/unblock the services PnkBstrA.exe and PnkBstrB.exe from your "C:\Windows\system32\" folder. In case of doubt, manually add both to your firewall's allow list. After the installation process you will only find PnkBstrA, so just make sure this process file is not blocked. Then try playing on a PB enabled server, in case of a kick, check if PnkBstrB was created and unblock it too. For more information on the PB service components refer to our FAQ: http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsvcfaq.php" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesg Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 (edited) Followed your instructions. Not really clear on one part. Once I enable the "run as administrator" in the compatibility mode, Everything is fine, then I run the program. Do I select the uninstall option and then the default option, or do I just go ahead with the default option "Install/Reinstall punkbuster service" ? Either way, I ran the default option of Install/reinstall, and Here is what I got: Checking user is Administrator OK Checking Administrator privileges OK Opening Service Control Manager OK Searching for PnkBstrA Found - OK Extracting PnkBstrA service OK Verifying service authenticity OK Installing PunkBuster service OK Installed at "C:\Windows\system32\PnkBstrA.exe" Checking PunkBuster service status STOPPED Starting PunkBuster service OK Adding firewall rule for PnkBstrA ERROR Installation Finished. Please click "Next" to test the PunkBuster services. ---------------------------------------------------------------- I assume I got an error, simply because I don't have a firewall, and the windows firewall service is stopped. I clicked "Next" to test the PunkBuster services: Starting PunkBuster Service Tests (v0.986) (12/05/07 18:24:28) Checking OS Windows NT 6.0 (build 6000) 32-bit Checking PnkBstrA service status RUNNING Checking PnkBstrA Version OK (1029) Extracting "PnkBstrB.exe" to: "C:\Users\MIKE\AppData\Roaming\PnkBstrB.exe" OK Checking firewall settings ERROR Checking if PnkBstrB is running NOT RUNNING Getting port for PnkBstrA OK (44301) Opening socket for packet send OK Sending version packet to PnkBstrA SENT Receiving version from PnkBstrA OK Received 6 bytes from 127.0.0.1:44301 Response = 7052 (ms) Version = v1029 Getting PnkBstrB install instance OK Sending start packet to PnkBstrA SENT Waiting for packet from PnkBstrA OK Received 3 bytes from 127.0.0.1:44301 Response = 11076 (ms) PnkBstrB started.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I have already run this before I posted. I will run the game and see what happens. What, if you know, ports do punkbuster's services use. I haven't found anything on this and I will poke holes in my router just to be on the safe side if this is what is causing it, which I doubt since I haven't changed anything... but it is possible there was a firmware upgrade since I have it set to automatically upgrade firmware. Thanks for your help and we'll see what happens. Edited December 5, 2007 by mikesg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesg Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Well, I am up and running with no kicks. Thanks very much for your assistance. I played for about 10 minutes without being kicked, but had to disconnect because my other half was raising hell. Anyway, I believe my problem is solved.
