I can tell you why you keep getting bumped by punkbuster. You have to right click on the shortcut that you use to launch Bf2142 and then click "properties" then next to the bottom click "Advanced" then check "Run as administrator" then click ok on both windows and you should be ok. Punkbuster is kicking you out because it thinks you don't have sufficient Operating system privileges.

P.S. if anyone can tell me how to change my display name it would be appreciated.

Download and run pbsetup.exe. Might help. I run this everyday and it almost always has updates.

What do you mean change the display? In game or Vista? In game has a display options section. Change it there.

I have run BF2142 for several hours before. Granted I don't think it played quite as well, but it still worked. However, now that we have some actual drivers from Nvidia the story might be different. I'll trying playing again in a few weeks after finals are over with.

Battlefield will work out whether you have a legit key or not.

I am convinced Vista comes with Directx10, go to Start, Run and type dxdiag - see what version it is.
