new laptop and pb </3 Vista

just install xp ...

What do you get kicked for?

u cant do vid_restart @ vista while connecting/playing
nP

Cant vid restart with Vista :(

windows api [131144]
running as admin, emulating xp sp2 or windows server 2003 won't fix it.

it's funny when you get kicked by others on cybergames because they think that you cheat now after reconnecting. :S

I took evenbalance's troubleticket:
evenbalance's reaction:

Note #3: This unfortunately is a problem with the /vid_restart function within Vista. This will have to be addressed by the game developer and/or Vista. In the meantime, don't issue the command while in a server and you should be fine.

I apologize for the inconvenience."
-> don't use /vid_restart ingame untill that problem was fixed.

you must run et as administrator + can't usually can't vidrestart while being on connected to server. Sometimes it works tho somehow..

I have Vista on PC and ET works fine there too, minimizor works too.

Try disabling UAC

Update punkbuster?

punkbuster is updated and I already disabled UAC. That features is just annoying after 2 minutes :P

Anyway I found a solution :S

You need to /reconnect after /vid_restart ing
