So a friend of mine had recently given up on playing Battlefield 3 after he bought Premium thanks to an annoying glitch, which according to forums and some EA sources is due to PunkBuster and Realtek not correctly working together. Fair enough, he swallowed the fact that he paid $30 for Premium just to stop playing the game but now with the new HumbleBundle, the same issue occurs in Medal of Honor. To say the least, he is pissed and mostly angry at EA for... you guessed it, them having their "Top agents working on the issue" for more than 3 years now! (since BC2)
Not to call that I know any better, but those top agents should've long since been replaced with other people who know what they are actually doing and find a real fix to it. I was wondering if anyone on the forums had an issue such as this one and knows of a REAL fix around it so we can resume playing BC2, BF3 and MoH2010...
He tried uninstalling Realtek as some suggested but his audio dies afterwards and so does his microphone. He re-installed PunkBuster and still gets his computer shut down after a couple of minutes in-game so please, I beg of you, if anyone knows a fix to this or at least a temporary work-around until "EA's TOP AGENTS" work it out ._. Help appreciated
