Hello I have no idea why, but for the last three nights when I try to join a game CODUO here or elsewhere I just get into the game for a few seconds then get a blue screen with white text "too fast to read" and then the computer reboots, fun. Any ideas or do I need to delete everything and reload fresh? If I reload is there any easy way to identify map files so I can copy them somewhere else before I uninstall and delete the program? I am doing the duel version thing and have played a few games in both versions without any problems. I haven’t changed anything recently so I'm a little befuddled as to why this is happening.

I have no idea about the blue screen thing, but you may want to make copies of your Main folder, and the UO folder within main--where your maps are stored. of course,it may be that one of those maps is causing the problem too. the map copies would save you some d/l time though if you un install good luck

that blue screen generally signifies a memory dump upon an error. Sounds like it might be a hardware problem. Do you have access to anohter video/sound card that you could swap out to test?

Hello Haven’t been able to play much for about a week. I keep getting kicked. I barely get into the game and I get a blue screen that flashes by and the computer reboots or I get kicked out with this message. Error Server Disconnected - has been kicked via Punk Buster (for 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Blocked O/S Privileges:508:430 I did a Google search and see that there are a few others out there with the same problem. It seams the latest update of punkbuster causes the problem. So it seams I cannot play until they fix the problem. I sent punkbuster a ticket and will post their reply when I get it. I guess I will have to talk to my wife and kids in the evenings now, .

Any help would be appreciated Thank you
(Their responses) 04/14/2005 23:47:47 - "=JHF= Greenbottom" Note #1: Ticket submitted to support staff.
04/15/2005 14:13:22 - "Hendrik Thole" Note #2: Make sure you run the game under an Administrator or equivalent account under Windows. Make sure a password is set on this Windows account. If you do have access an admin account, you can right click on the application you want to run and select "Run As". This will allow you to give admin access to that program and should allow you to play with a limited user. When you experience the "Blocked OS Priviledges" kick, please temporarily disable other security type programs you have running such as anti-virus, process guard, SDProtector, etc. to find out which of them is blocking PB's access to resources on your computer. You either need to run PB without the blocking program(s) or play on non-PB servers.

The only account this computer boots in is an administrator account but I did try the stuff they recommended in the first half of their response to no avail. I do run Norton Antivirus and Zone-Alarm Pro but I always have so I really don’t care for their response, but I will probably try disabling one and then the other to see what happens. I did completely uninstall CODUO and COD and deleted all related folders. I updated my video drivers to the newest available. I reinstalled COD and CODUO. I made sure I had the latest version of PunkBuster in my COD folder. All to no avail. A couple of interesting links www.punksbusted.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7830&st=0&p=48997entry48997www.punksbusted.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7011

I am having the same, but slightly different problem. Mine started last nite with the task bar going beserk. I fixed that and then this evening when trying to get on the server I kept getting the "inadequate os/priviledges" message. Updated pb, no avail. Installed, uninstalled no avial. Tried the remove thread for some adware that causes problems, no avail. NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING ;D. So when all else fails install it on another computer. In this case my son's. Not the same, but at least it let's me get my fix in . I am not sure what to do. Spoke to Bone about it and he wasn't quite sure either. Sent a help in to evenbalance. Nothing yet. Greenbottom, the response you got is straight off of their FAQ for problems. Sounds like they may not know either. Oh, well I'm getting tired. It's almost 2 a.m. Nite, nite... w4j
