Sometimes it only happens once or twice, and others as much as 5 or 6 times during the course of my game play day. Oh yeah it happens on Zombies too! I played the Ace Mod yesterday for hours and it never happened even once. All my drivers and directx are updated, its directx 11 btw... Any Ideas anyone?

After a few vid driver revisions, it seemed to stop. That is when I had Nvidia. I have never had that problem on ATI (just saying.. I dig Nvidia). I have no idea if it was a conflict, or if that was just all coincidence but it worked. You can read all day all over the internet that it's your direct x drivers, or it is vid drivers, or it is xfire interfering with the game... and 10,000 other reasons/fixes. From the problem that I had, which is exactly like yours, a reload of my vid drivers cleared it up for a bit. It happened enough that for a time I kept a shortcut to my vid driver execute file on my desktop. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

IT IS THE VERY OWN NVIDIA LATEST DRIVER THAT SEEM TO BE CAUSING THIS ISSUE. HOW TO FIX IT... UNINSTALL THE LATEST NVIDIA DRIVERS FROM THE ADD / REMOVE (FOR XP) OR PROGRAMS AND FEATURE OPTION FOR VISTA.Once it is done, go to C drive, DELETE any NVIDIA FOLDER containing display drivers. click start, click RUN or click under start search (if its vista or win 7), type 'temp' (without quote) press ENTER. (Opens a folder, delete all files, leave the rest which windows cant delete or currently in use etc). close the folder, now click start click RUN or start search, type '%temp%' (opens a folder, delete all files etc) TURN THE INTERNET CONNECTION OFF SO THAT THE WINDOWS DOES NOT FIND AND DETECT THE LATEST NVIDIA DRIVERS. RESTART THE COMPUTER.. GO TO THE NVIDIA WEBSITE BUT DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE LATEST NVIDIA DRIVERS, USE SOME OLD DRIVER WHICH IIS 18.00 WHQL VERSION ETC....... restart system again.. ISSUE FIXED.. WORKS LIKE A CHARM... believe me, anyone can get it fixed now.. incase there are problems, please contact me.. Or use this (its easier) DH Driver Cleaner Professional Edition http://www.drivercleaner.net Then install this Driver http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us i use the 260.89 found it to be the most stable...i always use beta drivers mine is the 260 gtx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because a driver works good for someone else,doesn't mean it will work good with "your" particular hardware. 9.0c- http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&displayLang=en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
