*battlefield2 and punkbuster*

hi all,

when i join a bf2 server, i get kicked by punkbuster.
a message appears with something like:

you were kicked by punkbuster (for 0 minutes...)
and then something with O/S Privileges.

i get this message since i installed vista.
bf2 worked fine on windows xp.

i allready updated punkbuster, so you don't have to ask me if i updated it.

All help will be appreciated

thanx!

You need to start BF2 as administrator... right click on the BF2 icon and
select "run as administrator".
You can set this permanently by right clicking on the icon, select
"compatibility" tab and tick the check box in the Priviledge Level section
