Now i have a new problem... I can start the game and do whatever i want in the menus, but soon as i click join game to bring up server listings i get a iw3mp.exe error... I re-installed the game and it does the same thing, is there something i'm over looking?? Thanks for any advice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would re-install latest vid driver (which is what I freakin had already) and it would clear up for a bit. I had this problem intermittently for quite some time until several updates to drivers (by Nvidia) must have removed whatever bug was a problem for my system. Hope it helps!

It turned out to be an issue with my sound drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It turned out I had quit the game while my server list had a moded filter being used under game type. A few mods can do this so u can filter ur svr list to their new game types. One thing you could try is to start any mods u have been on recently and then try to join. If this doesnt work, u can remove your server file from the COD4 folder (its servercache.dat i think). This will cause you to lose your saved svrs, but should fix the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always "fixed" it by deleting his profile, but if it's related to a server file list as Malsuerte suggested I'd start there after updating all drivers.
