Running Win 7 64 bit, everything else works fine! Frustrated as all hell ! What am I doing wrong? GEORGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I'll probably try reinstalling the whole thing tomorrow. Even though all the patches seemed to install without any probs, I will try to run the game after each patch to see if any of the patches are a problem. I assume that I will have to run a cleaner to ensure that no remnanats of the original install remain on my system. Thanks again. GEORGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this what you are applying after installing the game? I don't have the 64-bit Windows 7 myself so advice I could offer is, perhaps, limited. It is worth persevering with, George, as I am sure you'd enjoy chucking satchels about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

There you will find a file "Treyarch[.load]" or [.bik], not sure. There is only one file with this nameRename it to "Treyarch.bak" (preferred solution) This file is the intro video, renaming it should solve your issue.you can also try renaming the video folder to video1 or "fck_treyarch". If you do this, it may be possible that you will have to runthe game in safe mode. I'd prefer the 1st method Edited January 31, 2014 by TecHnOBoY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
