    Vista 64 bit and Call of Duty2

    I can't get Call of Duty2 to run in multi-player mode--single player works fine is this a know problem? I didn't see anything at the Activision site that says it not compatible with 64 bit

    I'm confused; why would I patch Call of Duty2 with Call of Duty4? If that works I'd really be surprised. Am I understanding you right?

    Do you have punkbuster installed and are you running the game by right-clicking and selecting "run as admin" ?

    Got punkbuster. Tried the right click on the desktop shortcut for the multi-player and got the usual starup screen then the windows notice it's being shut down. Windows says it's checking for a solution but one never comes. I'm I going to have to go back to XP to play my favorite online game?

    Do you have the latest DirectX redist? Download details: DirectX Redist (June 2007)
