Is the game not loading or are you getting an error before it crashes? Harry's fix with the mic jack does work sometimes so try it out. But that's usually a fix for Windows 8 not 7. I use Windows 7 with COD2 on 2 PC's with no problems. Awards

Click on the second tab, "Recording." Now, right click anywhere in the white area of that tab window and you'll see a dialog open that displays "Show disabled devices." Left click on "show disabled devices" to give it a check mark. You now see a new device shown in the recording box called "Stereo Mix." Right click, and select "Enable." Now try multiplayer. Awards

Short of doing a complete uninstall and re install the only thing I can do is teamview with you and go over your cod2 files... The problem I have seen with the sound thing has only been on Cod4 but recently on Cod2 have found our mod file get corrupt in players folders and the CoD2MP_s as well If you have teamspeak set up let me know when we can get together on there to do some sorting loADER>XI< Awards
