Why not vid_restart?

thats what makes this error occur

make sure you dont vid_restart and that includes your et loading twice when you connect to a server

there are some tutorials on this site that apparantly fixed it for some people but they never worked for me.

go to the search function, write " ET under vista" and mark the forum, articles, columns all except for journal, and look for few threads, they explain how to run ET under vista
and u cant vid_Restart while ing in vista, you will have to quit the server, vid_Restart and join again

Quote by evenbalanceWe have confirmed that the DVD copyprotection "Alpha-DVD" can cause this kick. If you have recently watched a DVD (e.g. "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" for German customers) on your computer that installed this copyprotection, you need to uninstall it first.

Please use the following tool to remove the software
