Well I just bought COD4 and loaded it on my comp. Problem is when I click on the icon on my desktop to play. All I get is the cod4 picture and my mouse is an hourglass I wait about 5 minutes and nothing happens. LOL hopefully someone else had this problem and knows how to fix it. I did run the demo on my comp and had no problems. Well hopefully someone will know how to fix this issue. Thanks in advance.

Well I just got off the phone with tech support for COD4 and the tech told me some bad news. My processor is a AMD athlon xp 3200+, mmx, 3dnow, ~2.2ghz. What I need to play the game is a AMD 6400 2800+. I hope maybe one of you computer geniouses knows how to get around this. If not then I am stuck with a $50.00 game I cant play.

Lloyd there is a file that you need to delete(if indeed this is why the game doesn't load) look in....program files/Activision/COD4/miles.....and then the file.....mssmp3.asi delete this file....it will run fine on your machine then.(you should have gotten an error on game start up....iw3.exe encountered an error...blah..blah) this is what stops it from loading on a 32 bit xp proc.

Will that fix improve performance for everyone running an AMD processor? Ya, Will it? Most of you know my problem, start out great, then turn to crap. (Not talking gaming skillz, lol). FYI, AMD 64, 4000+ ~2.4, 1024MB Ram, GeForce 6800 gs vid. -------------------- COD4 might be fun, But not as fun as a full forest :) |
