Our next holiday is booked Let's see him fit his MGF down there?

OK Harry, like you I never give up, so what I always do is look at it in a logical way:- 1/. It worked on 10, from the CD with your original profile 2/. You inherited 11 Pro and it hung from cd on 'components' - so there are differences between 10 and 11 causing the problems. It cannot be fat32/NTFS as 10/11 should be similar. Reading about 11 one of the main upgrades/differences is security, is the security blocking the download? as I don't have 11 (still on Dos) I can't see if it has any controls over downloads, perhaps investigate. 3/. Rather than get overcomplicated I would stick at first with the cd only and try to get it working, in theory the easiest way. So I would wipe everything clean and start yet again with this path, trying to sort out the missing components issue. 4/. If this fails then wipe it clean again and go down the Steam path again with the new knowledge gained, are you sure you've eradicated patch 1.8? by not loading it? I'm no expert but have solved things like this in the past by working in a logical way, we'll get there my old buddy.

OMG mate, you're going to have the snowflakes and wokes apoplectic, I remember all the jokes

Bio, here starts the slippery slope?

IF YOU'RE FEELING BRAVE - but don't shoot the messenger WORKING FIX FOR THE ONLINE PROFILE [EN/FR] [EN] Hey, I finally found a way to play online on Steam if you bought after 2021. First, you will need to have a working key. You can buy one online or you can buy the retail version and use the key that come with it. The key will only be working if it come from the box game or if the person is selling his steam registry key that he bought before 2021. I bought one online and bought the retail version and both worked. You only have to make sure that the key you bought was created before 2021 or come from the box game. You don't have to worry if its the retail version cuz they are all working. When you have the working key you need to replace the steam one with the working one in the registry editor at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Activision\Call of Duty WAW. The key to change is "Codkey". You have to remove the hyphen otherwise the key will not work. The only problem is when you launch the game Steam will change the key every time. To fix that you need to remove permission of changing the key of all users. Right click on the Call of Duty WAW folder in the registry editor and click Permissions. After that you need to uncheck every permissions of all users except Read. Apply the settings and launch the game and you will be able create a profile if you did it correctly. ps If changing the registry you know to write down every change, and keep it, just in case

If I remember correctly I read somewhere it will not run multiplayer unless punkbuster is installed and activated, even though not used, worth a check, meanwhile I'll keep thinking. Found this @HarryWeezer Currently the best way to fix this if there is nothing wrong with your key is to simply end the CodWaW.exe (or CodWaWMP.exe) task, then launch the game again which should prompt it to launch in safe mode.. Once in safe mode you should be able to create a profile.

How else do you get the Genie to pop out?

Hell, let us old boys at least dream Key

Your ambivalent rhetoric confuses the secret sauce with the nectar from Nirvana

Hey Baron FU

Things went wrong at my first meeting, 10 of us in the room and the speaker said which one of you would like to speak first, he wasn't pleased when I turned to the others and said 'I'll toss you for it'.

This is true, even in these forums we see multi millionaires hoarding points, when more needy players are robbed daily by the f...g dealer from hell, no names mentioned but the real culprits name begins with R

That's not a name change it's a spelling mistake how are you buddy?

This is a good chance to get in that shed with your tenon saw and practice dovetails, keep you warm tight joints, no draughts. Rob your fellow joiner

Yea? only problem is that picture is to scale

Fabulous, really great, there are some nice people left in the world Now as you're in a smoochy loving mood, where the fucks my fishing video? There are quite a few idiots that would benefit from this surgery judging by their shooting @Ghostlupus?
