View 5 Replies View RelatedSince I have played them all, it seems I am bound to get this one. I was hoping we wouldn't have another WWII title but, what the heck, I am willing to give it a try since there is nothing else out there that interest me right now.
I don't play online but I am hoping a friend of mine will have interest and we can start doing Co-op missions together, this will be the beginning of my Online Experience (if Co-Op can be called Online! ).
I have Vista X64 on a Gateway FX system with an nvidia 8800 series video card. It will not play MOH Airborne or the new Call Of Duty. It usually gets just past the first video run and then freezes with repeating sound and the picture freezes with squiggly horizontal lines covering the entire monitor over the screen shot. It's not a lock up I have ever seen before and with Windows, unfortunately I've seen too many. I have tried all the usual fixes, patches, lowest settings etc. I have the newest nvidia drivers. Could it be the Realtek on board audio? Its supposed to be HD Audio. Tried to get their newest drivers, most of the download sites I've tried haven't worked.

When I tried to uninstall them, the normal Installshield window popped up, but when it arrived here: the window simply closed and the program was still installed??
I have three computers, 1 old machine running XPSP3, 1 New machine running Vista Unltimate and One Notebook running vista ultimate (Wireless Connection).
Prob 1. I have a shared printer connected to the XP desktop and can access it from the Vista notebook but not from the Vista Desktop.
Prob 2. I can not get Call of Duty WaW to connect by LAN With the Vista Desktop and it does not attract other players when hosting a public game. When using the Vista notebook I can play LAN with the XP Desktop and the Vista Notebook.
The problem seems to be with the Vista Desktop, something i can't see. The Xp Desktop and Vista Desktop are connected through a Belkin Wireless G Router ver 6002. File Sharing and network discovery are turned on, on both vista machines. The call of duty games are all patched to the same and latest version.
how i can get the sound back on ingame? The problem only conserns Call Of Duty: World at war. Menu message states: To change speaker config you need to change the default playback device in your windows sound settings, and restart the game.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using a NVIDIA 9500GT with a VGA (blue cable) monitor. When I play Call of Duty 4 Multiplayer, I'll be playing for around 10-45 minutes, and the game will freeze. The pixels on my monitor will go a strange green, purple and other colours. After that, I'll have to manually push the reset button to reboot the computer. Also, with The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, sometimes (after around 15-20 minutes of playing) I'll fast travel, or open a door (ie load another area) and it will load. After the load screen is over, the game will freeze and get the strange pixels like above......

E.g : new game, multiplayer, options, it's not there. I never had problems with it on this pc when it still had XP. tried reinstalling vista, same problem. can't go back to XP, because my internet needs to be reconfigured for it
i just want to know if it'll be possible for me to play Call of Duty 1 on my vista system. I heard that I can but I just want to know before I buy it. Also, I want to try myst but i'm pretty sure that's not gonna work.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am playing CoD4 and I am experiencing some problems with mods and files... When I installed CoD4 I let it install as default. In the program files, Activision, Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare. Directly after the install I downloaded Patch 1.6 and 1.6-1.7 After that I went to the Call of Duty Modern Warfare folder so that I could add my custom maps. But the folders I am looking for are missing. The folders located in my CoD4 MW folder are: Docs, Main, Miles, Mods, pb, Zone. Then there are 2 folders missing: players and usermaps. My game runs fine, but I cant do anything more... I have all my ranks, but I cant find my players folder. I did a search throughout my pc, for the names of those folders but couldnt find anything... I reinstalled CoD4 twice...

Windows Media Player cannot play the file (or cannot play either the audio or video portion of the file) because the Microsoft MPEG-1 (50) codec is not installed on your computer. I have downloaded vista codecs v5.02 and still unable to play file.
I have a new WD external hard drive that I'm trying use with Vista Ultimate, but when I connect the drive I get an error message saying,
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.

View 9 Replies View RelatedTrying to install a program here. It included a DirectX 9 install which I canceled. Running Vista64 Ultimate here. The program dies on start with an error - d3dx9.dll is not found. The developers website says it needs DX9 and that users of DX10 / Vista need not worry as both 9 and 10 sit side by side in the same install. Can anyone confirm this is correct. I'd prefer to NOT mess with my DX10 configuration.

I have a brand new HP Pavilion desktop and the first two days it gave me blue screens of death. Subsequently I had an expert look at the .dmp files and Windows/System logs that show the unrecoverable events and he said that it clearly shows a -hardware -problem and that I should tell HP and get a new computer. (I have had it just 4 days longer than Best Buy's return policy was in effect because I did not figure out how serious the problem was until 2 days ago. I had been thinking it was just a conflict with my monitor or something but this guy says the .dmp files show that it is a memory or processor problem and cannot be fixed.)
I spent 3 and 1/2 hours online in a chat session with an IDIOT supervisor in India and he did not fully understand the problem and kept preaching "System Restore". I kept saying that -System Restore will not fix a Hardware problem- so there was no point to it. He finally came up with this: "sir, the processor sends some IRQ requests etc to other hardware devices, and the log suggests me that theres a conflick in such IRQ requests." Even so, how is System Restore going to FIX a hardware problem that already exists???..........
Im assuming that Vista has come with DirectX10 already installed on it? Correct? I was wondering if I have to install DirectX 9 on my computer as well to get Medieval II to work since it says that DirectX 9 is required?

I load call of duty and it loads but will not run and says their is a missing dll file. from direct x. Obviously Windows vista 64 has direct x 10, and COD4 runs from Direct x 9. When I go to install direct x 9 it says that I cannot install due to another application of direct x running.
