i've been playing games online on this comp for a few months (just built one a lil while ago)  but i just decided to get vista over the weekend.  i assume everything has been installed correctly but now whenever i join games online that have punkbuster turned on, i quickly get kicked from the game because of "inadequate OS privalages", or so punkbuster says.  so what does that mean? some kind of administrator/basic user account thing on vista or something, because there is only one username on this comp and its the administrator one so i dunno what the problem is.  any help would be great.

Right click the icon click properties then compatibility set for admin mode and if you want WinXP SP2 and then right click it again and click run in admin... that works for me! :)

What it really means is that you should get a refund on Vista (if you can) and install XP again
