Cod4

[essysin2]

i run vista ultimate x64, and after installing the newest patch (1.6 or .7, cant remember) of COD4 i was able to play it a few times. but it has since quit working. anyone else had this problem? if so have u been able to fix it?

What happens when you try and run the game?

i just get a message saying iw3mp.exe has stopped working. windows is checking for a solution to the problem. it will start booting up and then quit.

Ah, gotcha. That's not a Vista thing, per se, it's a known issue in Call of Duty: Call of Duty 4 Forums

There are a few fixes (haven't tried it, haven't had the prob) : » Call of Duty 4: “iw3mp.exe has stopped working” Error Fix Shane Cotee’s Blog: Fixes for common problems in new hardware & software

Open the game’s installation folder (usually C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare) and open the “miles” folder. Rename mssmp3.asi to something else like mssmp3.bak.

You should probably read through them before applying a fix. Apparently it all boils down to your onboard sound.

-Start, control panel
-Hardware and Sound
-Sound
-Recording Tab
-Right Click in window, chose "Show Disabled Devices"
-"Stereo MIX"appeared, Right Click and choose enable

i also had this problem,another fix for it is putting something in the Mic jack on your soundcard or intergrated sound.

just plug some headphones into it when you click on the cod4 shortcut and when its loaded unplug em.

works.
