BC 2 freezes during gameplay

[J.A.C.K. 009]

I recently installed win 7 64bit + new graphic drivers (nvidia geforce 257.25 for GTX280) & from then bc2 freezes during gameplay after ... min. The only thing i can do when that problem happens is to reset my pc.

i already tried to reinstall driver 197.57 but no success, the game still freezes.
I now see they placed a new one online (275.21) so i gonne try that one & hope it help., If not it could be win7 or bc2?

Any other idea's / solutions would be very helpfull.

hello Jack,


I am going to try to help you  (traduction avec google )

1 - mise a jour directx :  http://www.01net.com/telecharger/windows/Utilitaire/dll_librairies/fiches/102125.html

beaucoup de personne on ce probleme sur win7 64 bits

le service PnkBstrA n'est pas au bon endroit (il est dans system32 mais curieusement il n'y a rien là : il est dans C:\Windows\SysWOW64) => on le copie de SysWOW64 vers System32.

Ensuite, dans C:\Utilisateurs\xxxx (c'est votre compte)\AppData\Local\PunkBuster\BC2\pb on doit avoir PnKBstrB.exe => on le copie aussi dans System32.

[[AppData est un répertoire caché, il faut forcer l'affichage, dans le Panneau de configuration / Apparence et personnalisation (ou approchant, je n'ai pas Seven sous la main) / Afficher les fichiers et dossiers cachés => on coche la case Afficher les fichiers et dossiers cachés et on pourra voir le AppData.]]

:!: Tous les services PnkBstrA et B doivent être modifiés pour qu'ils exécutent en admin à chaque fois : clic droit, propriétés, Compatibilité et on modifie le niveau de privilège (en cliquant sur Modifier les paramètres pour tous les utilisateurs).

Dans les services (Démarrer / Exécuter / services.msc), on double clique sur PnkBstrA, Onglet Connexion => cocher la case Autoriser le service à interagir avec le Bureau.



j'espere t'avair aidé.

Try to put has in the daytime punkbuster

with pbsec: http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=dl-bc2.php

If he(she,it) work always not try:

(I also saw on diver forums that driver his(her) put probleme if your sound card is Realtek )

Update the pilots(drivers) of his(her,its) sound card

If he(she,it) work always not try:

Lower(Dim) the rate of sampling

-Go to the menu start, then configuration panel, material and audio and finally click on so
-Then made a right click on your audio material(equipment) then property
-Go to the tab advanced Statistics and choose 16 bits, 44100 Hz (Quality CD)

Still freezes, the new patch didn't fix it. 

It seems to be a punkbuster problem:

Some say they can play for hours on non-pb servers.
