Hello all,

 

I hope somebody can help me.

I played COD4 on FT server 1. Well if you can call it playing. It looked as if i was target practice for everybody else 🙂

A few days later i tried to start up COD4 MP, but it says "it appears that Call of Duty  ...... etc... do you want to ran in safe mode. 

After this message it sais: youre computer appears to have changed.....

 

And for both it doens't matter if i say yes or no. I get a short black screen and nothing happens and the computer goes back to my computer desktop.

I had the same problem a month ago and i changed the IW3MP.exe file and it worked again, but now this won't work.

 

Does anybody have an idea how to fix this problem?

I run COD4 on disc. (no steam)

I have updated everything n my pc 

 

Hope somebody has a sulution for me. Want to be target practise again 🙂

COD4 crashes on Windows are 90% due to audio input issues.  Check your mic input in windows make sure it's functioning.

If you are using the same mic (3.5 jack) I would say go to device manager then sound and make sure you are running Realtek high definition audio...You can also check events on what ever device you find in there to give you a idea as to when the change was made verses problem...I would say temp disable all drivers but Realtek...Then restart and see...You can always re-enable them later if that don't solve your problem

I gave up on Realtek on board sound when playing COD. I got a ROCCAT Juke - Virtual 7.1 Plus USB and just plug it in when I use my headset.  $20 and problems solved.

This is so true! My COD4 crashes once a month because for some reason, likely an update my system changes my preferred sound settings. I use a Steele series headset & mic with the software . Once a month I have to reset it back.
