      update your punkbuster. There is an updating tool on the punkbuster website. I run on vista and it works just fine...

        right click on your bf2.exe and set it to run as administrator. (at least that is what I have heard).

          I had the same problem

          BTW Vista runs fine with BF2.

          All you have to do is:

          Start --> Control Panel --> Security Center --> Turn off User Account Control

            No you don't, besides disabling the uac is completely stupid because then it's just like a shiny xp.

            All you need to do is right click on the bf2 (and 2142) .exe and select this:



            Thats it.
