Having trouble with my COD4. I fresh install the game which I just bought from Steam. Of course its in the lowest resolution possible and running version 1.8. So I try and bump up the resolution to my monitors native resolution (3440x1440), but it crashes the game and freezes up my PC when I click the apply button. I then resort to manually changing settings in the config file, which did change the resolution as well as the refresh rate. I have tried a standard 1920x1080 setting as well but it does the same thing. I saw that the Steam version uses a 1.8 patch so I found a workaround for that and found a COD4MP.EXE that loads the game using the 1.7 patch and dropped it into the COD4 folder replacing the original after backing it up of course. Any help would be appreciated. Have been working on getting this damn game to work for several hours now and have hit a brick wall. Thanks all.
