Banned from server - message

I had to reinstall windows on a new SDD, as my game and system was hanging.
Last time I played few days ago I was called ZiG-ZaG , while I was messing round with my settings trying to figure out what was wrong.
Then my hard drive stopped working

I did try to connect before I installed punkbuster, so wondering if that auto banned me?

Any help much appreciated.

...

It's the cable or the controller?

Btw. is it an some year old AMD Mainboard with AMD Sata Controller?

(Some older AMD Sata Controller had issues with AMD SATA Driver and SSD's/Harddisks).

It was an old hdd that came with the computer, bf1942 is installed on a seperate sdd with steam etc.. I replaced my main HDD, with the SDD and reinstalled windows.

I just tried connecting to Simple, it still says "Banned from server".

Did someone ban me?  or has something gone wrong on from my end lol? Oh i connected to your Arkos server fine

Are you by using a public key by any chance?

I'm not sure, I did buy the game once years ago. I think I might be playing from an origin download...or someone gave me a key ages ago.
How do you even change your key?

I fixed it, changed my key....my old key must be on the old hard drive registry somewhere.
Just as long as I wasn't banned by an admin...don't want to be accused of ban evading

I don't see you in the ban list so you should be good to go
