Howdy - 3 times now on the CoD UO standard map server, the game crashed. I had to push the reset button to restart my PC. When I try to rejoin the game, it says I can't join for 16 minutes. Once it was 18 minutes.
What's going on? Any thoughts? Thanks Bertie the Bunyip P.S. I have "yes" for automatic downloads |

Hey Bernie,
Try this it has worked for me and I was having the same problem as you. Go get the pbsetup program here http://www.punkbuster.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php. Make sure you save the program to you pb folder in your COD folder. Then run go to the folder using explorer and run the program and follow directions to setup COD and check for updates. I found when I tried to run the program immediately after DL the pb files were not being placed into the right folder. This seems to have worked for me, however, I have also turned down the quality of some of my sound and video features. I haven't tried to run again at my old settings but I was reading that PB uses a decent chunk of memory and if your system is memory limited then have high quality audio and video setting could cause PB to crash. Hope that helps and you can get back to gaming. Wino |
