o Press the Start button just below the pull down.
o Repeat this for the other service if necessary.

you: PnkstrA there but no PnkstrB there....
Animesh: Okay, for fixing that, you can try out the following.
Animesh: As they both should be there to run the game/
Animesh: Download and install the PBSVC program from http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe
Open the program and Uninstall PunkBuster
This will clear any older versions of PunkBuster that may be experiencing an issue
After uninstalling the program, download and run PBSetup from http://evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php
Once downloaded, open PBSetup and select Add a Game and add Battlefield 3 from the available list.
After adding Battlefield 3, click Check for Updates until you receive a message stating No New Updates Needed.
Note:- This may take several updates depending on the game and version of PunkBuster.

Animesh: There you go.
Animesh: Vishal, please let me know when done.

Fields wrote:That's the same issue I got Oct 6th battleday. Basically, the Origin servers aren't properly synced with battlelog servers, so one service reports a different password then the other service. You can try changing it back to the password you had before or just wait for them to fix it. Typically, it takes a few days for EA to resolve this particular issue.
