Corrupted File

 

1. Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to get to the Task Manager. Open Services tab. Locate PnkBstrB service and as you can see, it’s in stopped state. Right mouse click that and press Start Service. See if your problem is gone, if it’s not, continue to next step.

 

2. Locate Battlefield 4 folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4 Beta\ and right mouse click pbsvc.exe and click Run as Administrator. Hit Test Services.

 

 

3. You should see that test is running.

 

4. If you have any kind of errors here, please go to step 1 andInstall/Reinstall Punkbuster service, and after that go again to Task Manager -> Services and start Punkbuster services if those are in Stopped state.

 

 

Or Last option

 

Delete all the BF4 file & expansion and reinstall,this usually works,but takes a long time to download.

 

Hope this helps

That was what I'm telling you,delete the download and reinstall.

 

But did you update punkbuster first?
