Hi all,

Just installed Windows 7 RC and COD 4.

Punkbuster keeps kicking me out of servers.

I get this

Restriction: Unknown windows API Function [131131]

Anyone know if there's a fix for this ?

:confused:
 
Not until it's released to retail afaik, no doubt they have it working behind the scenes already, but from what I have heard on these forums they are not currently going to support a BETA OS, it will be fine on release I imagine.
 
As Vader said, Punkbuster do not support beta systems, so untill Windows 7 reaches RTM , or possibly even is launched retail, Punkbuster games will not work on 7.
 
Punkbuster doesn't work with W7, and any exceptions won't last for long and aren't stable workarounds at all. Just give it up completely and if you really need to play games like CoD4 and Crysis online, maybe you should have considered the potential ramifications of moving to an unreleased operating system.
 
For your main os you should really be using Vista or XP anyway, which don't have this problem. This is one of the main reasons that a Beta OS shouldn't be your main/only OS.
 
Thanks for replies and yes I am still using Vista 64 for my main OS.

I thought id try windows 7 on my other HD partition.

Its a shame punkbuster don't work with beta windows 7 because COD 4 seems to run really nice on it.

Oh well never mind.
