I have a buddy who is having all hell with PB trying to play BFBC2... I linked him to this page, I so hope this will fix it for him!!!

I'll (or he'll) let you know!

What issue is he having?

Did the guide help him?

Sadly, no. But he built a brand new PC, which he fired up for the first time yesterday night, and so far, so good, he was able to log onto my BFBC2 server without getting PB kicked. So for now, I guess we can call this a "case closed"...

the same thing happens in bf2, the same fix as in op will fix bf2 aswell. there is an easier way, download pbsvc.exe and run that, it will kill pb and reinstall it for you, then manully update.

Getting PB error in Red Orchestra 2, doing these tricks now. Thanks!

edit, not working..... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

For these steam games, just delete interiors of the FB folder and "Check game cache". Now it works!

Works with BF3.

just randomly had an punkbuster error in bf3 the other day, something about a communication error with punkbuster. been playing this game since day one, tried to fix with pbsvc.exe, no go, tried uninstalling and reinstalling pb, still nothing. finally i right clicked bf3 in origin and chose to repair. fixed the issue. if any fellow gamers in bf3 get a punkbuster error out of the blue, repair is worth a shot.

just wait until it comes back! Yesterday I sang victory and now I have it again in RO2 and BF3, forcing me to play on non PB servers.... if available.
