Hi,

So i have a problem that sometimes while i am playing quake 3 i got my computer crashes and then there is nothing i can do only restart it... Even ctrl +alt+delete wont work... There is no such problem on other games such as GTA4 or BF3... I tried to reinstall game about 10 times or more but that haven't helped... Oftenly that happens on OSRC server, but i get that and on others like ERA FTAG or INSTAGIB FREEZE TAG. By the way i think this problem started after i updated my punk buster but i am not sure about that... Maybe any one know what there could be and what should i do ?

Thx a lot...

Man, just re-install your PB, you just can't join server with PB. Happy Yesterday i setted it off for you on mi3 war (and you played without problems). And on OSRC ref have no rigths for it, that's why you couldn't join OSRC at all.

download here and you can read instructions there too -

The reason why i couldn't join OSRC when we were playing was that i didn't had few maps hehe.... But ok i will try to reinstall pb again maybe that will change something... I hope you guys are right...
