COD crashing - Help folks Options

[Capt.Furillo]

After a month of telephone line problems (dodgy line) finally got back to decent ping rates and wanted to get onto Barb and Forest. Only problem is after map loads (note any UO map) I get maybe 10 seconds before screen freezes and error message saying CODUOMP.exe has encountered a problem. No other error message. Tried safe mode with lowest graphic settings etc no go. Put console on to see if anything came up but nothing. Tried old NVIDIA driver and no change. Reloaded game and no go. All other games are fine e.g. COD2. Any suggestions welcome as driving me nuts. Nothing else has changed on PC from since COD worked fine. To those who say Hi when I join I'd like to reply but don't get chance !!

I also found this....kind of the same as above...but might help you out:





Hardware issues can cause freezing, black screens and other
errors. Also, your drivers should always be kept up to date.


Try the following steps one at a time to try and resolve the issue.
I hope this helps. Please post back if you have any questions! :-)


1. Update DirectX and your Chipset, Sound, &Video Drivers:

2. Dust your fans, vents and components using a 1/4" paintbrush
and a hose vacuum. Use compressed air for hard to reach places.
Set a housefan to blow cold air into your case to expose an over-
heating issue.. If it works add more fans or replace defective ones.

3. A faulty power supply can cause STOP errors, random reboots,
and black screen lockups. One way to test for that is to check the
wattage sticker on your power supply and then calculate your need
