Closed thread Closed by archivetitle. main account banned last week, figured id just start over, new account died after 2 raids. same machine. is this definitely a hardware ban or could it be something else. and if it is, does a spoofer actually fix it or do i need to reinstall windows

Replies are closedthats a hardware ban yes. account level bans let a new account live. two raids and dead on the same box is the fingerprint
ok. do i need to reinstall though
no. a spoofer changes the identifiers battleye reads, disk and volume serials, mac, gpu and board strings, smbios, machine guids. reinstall clears some of it and leaves the hardware serials anyway, so its the worse option and costs you an evening
confirm it properly first though. try the same account on a different pc. if it works fine there its definitely the machine and not the account
also do the spoof before making the next account, not after. spoofing after the account exists is too late for that one
didnt know that, good to know
what if i just want to avoid the whole thing, does running spoofed from day one help
it stops a future detection reaching your hardware. it does not stop the ban, it stops the ban taking the pc with it. different job
and it does nothing for account bans, worth being clear. spoofer hides the machine, it doesnt make a detected build undetected
so order is spoof, restart, new account, low risk raid, then cheat. right
yes. dont skip the restart, some of it only applies after reboot
and dont launch the game while its still running. saw someone do that and then complain
