Call of Duty 4 HELP?
Whenever I have raise cod4 he always tells me that he could not write a file... your hard drives probably full. But it's not. I always have to run as admin... but when I do this, I can't use x - fire in the game. ? Help?
Vampir0,
If it works when you disable the user account control, which is most likely going to be your best option. Yes, Windows will warn you that your system is precarious, every time that you turn off all the built in Windows security features. But this does not mean you're in imminent danger of getting attacked your computer. Turn it off just to play the game and then turn it back on when you're done, if you wish. Here is a detailed explanation of this user account control:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/922708
Other than that, try the forum of Call of Duty 4 to see if anyone there is a better answer for you. Your best advice on games sometimes comes from other players who have used the same configuration you have.
Let us know if we can be of further assistance.
Thank you

Hello
Start the DirectX using the command * dxdiag *.
There, you should check if all acceleration graphics card options have been enabled.If that does not help, then you should try to update the graphics driver.
In most cases, the old graphics driver causes these questions because it s not completely compatible with the game.Check it out!

Punkbuster Satellite A100-192 - Call of Duty 4 - questions
I bought call of duty 4 for play online and I m unable to play due to problems with the punkbuster client.
PunkBuster installs with the game itself, but the service does not start.
He thought maybe something to do with the game, so I decided to try another game which uses punkbuster. I decided to try America s army (aa was chosen because it's free) and the same problem occurred. PunkBuster service has not started.I ve started looking for solutions and I've tried a good number of them.
I first thought that maybe kaspersky 6 is causing the problem so I deleted (first time I stopped it, not help) and did a clean install of the game. That did not help either.
Then I thought that maybe it's my network device causing this (Scientific - Atlanta Webstar 2000 cable modem), nope.
Maybe my network device I use 2 days a week (even if it was obvious that this was not the problem)... zyxel P-660HW-D3 (adsl router). Nothing has changed.I used the punkbuster web ticket to send them a query, but after three weeks, there is still no response.
Other things I've tried (without success):
-tried to fix punkbuster, in which case the punkbuster has been broken, with the latest version of pbsetup.exe from evenbalance site, also tried to repair with pbsvc.exe
-clean installation (a clean install in fact because I used youruninstaller 2008 to uninstall the previous installation) of the game without the punkbuster, new installation of the punkbuster, added play in manually.
-tried to run punkbuster from inside, the game using the consoleIs my model s Toshiba Satellite A100-192 and its system requirements are:
Intel dual core 2.0 GHz
1.5 GB OF RAM
Mobility radeon ATI x 1600 (256 MB)
etc...
Running Windows XP home SP2
Basically, the games work very well in single player mode (bright cod4 settings means, aao) is not a sort of plug system problem.My guess is that somehow punkbuster service conflicts with some Toshiba Utilities and therefore does not start.
If you please try to use punkbuster as search mode client in any search engine and you will find several tips on does not work/client punkbuster. Because of this I really do not think that it has something to do with the Toshiba laptop.
To be honest, your question is for the support of Activision.

Qosmio X 300 - hangs during the game Call of Duty
Hey,.
I bought Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 days ago and when I play the game like 30-60 min, my screen goes black and my sound freezes; starts to sound like a chain saw.
I downloaded the latest version of the graphics driver, but it did not help. Anyone has any idea what I can do?
I throw a Qosmio X 300 32-bit Vista Intel Core 2 Duo Cpu 2.80 GHz T9600, 4 GB of RAM, the game works fine, but its starts to become annoying to turn on my computer each semester one our to play the game.
Any help would be appreticated.
Cordially want $ blood ;)Hello
You may notice this problem only with Call of Duty or in other games too?
It's not easy to say why this is happening but maybe your laptop is overheating and so he died while playing a game. You can try to clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans. I clean my cell phone every 3-4 months and I m always asked how much dust out. You can get the jet of compressed air from each computer store.
In addition, you should only use directly display Toshiba drivers because they have protection against overheating. Other drivers could damage your graphics card.

One thing c:\windows\system32\drivers\sptd.sys driver has been known to cause various errors blue screen in some configurations, so I recommend you to uninstall the application that has installed this driver, possibly it is Daemon Tools.
Then, uninstall the c:\windows\system32\drivers\sptd.sys - see "How can I remove driver SPTD on 32-bit operating system?" in the following link:
