COD4 problem

the w3mp.exe should be iw3mp.exe,
I dont no if you have renamed it for some reason but try renaming it to iw3mp.exe
 
Yes sorry iw3mp.exe is the error i get :rolleyes:

ive installed latest patches,Im removing my gfx card drivers now and re-installing see what happens.
 
maybe the exe on your desktop is corrupt have you tried launching it from within the install folder?
you could right click the iw3mp.exe on your desktop and choose open file location and it should take you back to the install folder if everything is ok.
 
That reminds me, I had a sound issue and had to re-install the whole game cause it wouldn't run without some crazy single sound file, can't remember how it was.

But yeah, try re-installing your GPU drivers and the game itself.

BTW Nevakonaza, how do you run 3GB of RAM in Dual Channel? :P
 
Do you have a mic? You have to have a mic plugged in for multi-player to work (at least on some computers).

I used to have the same problem as you, but once I plugged the mic in, COD4 MP worked just fine.

P.S. You don't have to use the mic/leave it plugged in, once the game is loaded you should be able to unplug it if you want.
 
^ Sounds kinda off-topic (mic) but who knows it might work, computers are weird like that sometimes! :P

0.o

Where did you hear that?

Infact speaking of mic's Ive never once heard anyone in cod4 use it to communicate with their team. Yeah on xbox sure, but never pc. Whereas I could pop down into CSS and instantly hear 12 year old rampages.

okay i re-installed gfx card drivers,Still the same:mad:

im going to re-install cod4 but this time not apply the patches.
but then i suppose my version of the game wont match the servers :cool:

il give it a try anyway.

and yes ramodkk Kornowski said it.

2x 1Gb and 2x 512Sticks.


i got the 512 sticks cheap of my cousin.
 
okay i re-installed the game again and applied alll patches and still the same.

this is realy annoying me now :mad:
 
ahh fixed...the fix was to plug something in the PC's mic jack when the game started up and then it works but I don't know why.

:D

Who would've thought the mic jack was actually the problem? :confused:
Never seen a problem like that...

i thought it was a Direct x problem or something (Running in DX10)
 
yeah if i could find the damn box to enter the servers ip in lol.

i cant find it :D
