Punkbuster problem

It kicks me for "illegal O/S parameters" or something when I play at Darkhaven. I haven't touched my config and it used to be fine, but yesterday it kicked me after about 1 minute of connection.

do you get any warning messages before being kicked? i get non-unique premium ID or whatever sometimes for this one specific server and still haven't figured it out. maybe pay to play?

anyway, look for anything in the console that could be a clue.

I'm not sure about Q3 (because it is so old), but most PB games now require your xp account to have administrator privilages.

Oh, that must be it, thanks signa! I've recently downgraded my normal account for security measures, cheers.
