Right Click on the default playback device (e.g. Speakers) and click properties. From there select the Advanced tab.
To eliminate this error the default playback format must be set at 24 bit 48000Hz (Studio Quality). Simply select this from the dropdown list and apply the settings.

Problem #4 PC - Call of Duty World at War Black Screen problem/error


Solution #1 :as posted by remni

Ok, for everyone getting the stupid endless black screen bug, the fix is incredibly simple. Just Alt+Tab out if it to switch to a new screen. Afterwards, Alt+Tab back into it, then hit Esc. The main intro should start right up. It’s worked for me everytime so far. Now I’m not 100% sure this works on XP or not, since I use 32-bit Vista, but I imagine it will.

Solution #2 : from Anonymous @ thepiratebay

Assuming you have installed Call of Duty World at War in it’s default installation directory :

Navigate to C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War\main\video

and delete “Treyarch.bik”. It is recommended that you keep a backup of this video file

Problem #5 PC - Call of Duty World at War Crashes to Desktop / Freezes


Generic Solution #1 : Make sure your video card drivers are up to date… and also make sure your sound card drivers are up to date too. Sound card drivers were known to fuck CoD4 up and there was an error that required you to have a mic inserted in order to play Call of Duty 4 Multiplayer, so there’s no telling if sound cards, dedicated or built-in can screw your copy of COD WAW

source : http://www.gamingnewslink.com/2008/11/11/fixing-call-of-duty-5-world-at-war-errors-crashes-freezes-and-intallation-errors/

Problem #6 PC - No servers showing up in the Call of Duty World at War Multiplayer lobby


Solution : Aside from the stupid stuff like checking if cables are scured, make sure that your ports are properly forwarded. The ports that Call of Duty World at War uses are ports 28930 - 28960, there maybe more and if there are it will be posted here shortly.

Problem #7 PC - How to make your own Call of Duty World at War profile (to save configs and other stuff) / Fixing the profile error or configurations not being saved


Solution : as posted by Dustmite of mininova

Here’s how to fix the profile error:

Vista: Browse to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players and delete everything except for the active.txt. You may need to go into the game one more time, back out, and delete more. Right click on the “players” folder and make sure it’s not set to Read Only. Now you’ll be able to create a profile for yourself.

Windows XP: “Users” is called “Documents and Setting”

    hi mate I’m getting directx errors and I can’t to get COD WAW to work. I checked out the other sites and the beta forums and they they seem fix the problem by reinstalling directx9 but this method doesn’t seem to work for me. hope you’d reply.

    one more thing, i just downloaded this off the torrents, but from what i’ve read from the comments the torrent’s working fine.

    High CPU Usage. Not 100% but near 95% (codwaw.exe). UNPLAYABLE

  4. Baodai — November 11, 2008 @ 6:13 am

    Hi have problem #3, but the solution is only for Windows Vista, and I have Windows XP. Any Idea ?

  5. Semtex — November 11, 2008 @ 7:41 am

    When i try to start the game i get the “don’t send” error.My drivers are up to date. I need some help . Thank you

  6. sikira — November 11, 2008 @ 11:13 am

    Hi…I have the problem creating the profile from the start.
    When I enter CoD: WaW, game asks me to create profile, and when I enter desired nick it says “Profile could not be created”. There is no possible way for me to create it…can you guys help please? I have tried the solution from problem number 7, but I can’t find those folders that you have mentioned(AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players)because they are just not there. :( I have Win XP Professional x64 Edition. MAYBE the problem is that I have installed it on D drive (WinOS is on drive C), but I am not too sure about it. I will try to reinstall it to C drive and notify you if I was successful, but I think it’s a long shot. :S
    Thank you in advance :)

    #6 : “Windows XP: “Users” is called “Documents and Setting””

  8. Art of War — November 11, 2008 @ 11:20 am

    No luck for me on that directx error, downloading another copy of COD, hope that it works this time.

  9. sikira — November 11, 2008 @ 11:35 am

    @Art of War
    I don’t know if your answer was directed at me, but I feel obligated to answer to you and our friends from gameingnews…I KNOW that “Users” is called “Docs and Settings” in XP…I have shortened the previous line (”C:\Users\Username\”) bcs I thought it was understandable in this case. I went to “C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator” and from there I was unable to find the rest of the folders.
    Once again, I thank you guys in advance for solving this problem.

  10. barnakol — November 11, 2008 @ 12:54 pm

    Cant get the game to work. I am using vista32. I installed and copied the crack as instructed but when I tried to launch the game, it gave me a message “call of duty world at war has stopped working”. In view problem details, it shows APPCRASH as the problem event name. I updated video drivers, Punkbuster and direct X already, same issue. Can anyone help me on this pls.

  11. lopido — November 11, 2008 @ 2:21 pm

    #7 dont run it is impossible for me to create a online profile.

  12. steve — November 11, 2008 @ 3:21 pm

    hi ok i have a solution for no:1 black screen. i get this and i was told if you can get into the game the first time, open up console and enter these 2 commands.
    /r_fullscreen o
    /Vid_restart

    This will put you into a window box, and stopsall the black screen crapp.. you will need to go back into your game if screen is to small, select graphics and set it to your screen res, ie 1280X960 which i use, you can still play the game in nearly full screen say 95% It does stop the black screen issue then Tabbing out.

    OK MY Problem is: The Profile Dont Work.
    My main problem is im still not able to create a profile, even tho it tried (Dustmite of mininova) Soliution, i still get cant creat profile. as when i enter it i then get you need to create Profile to play multlyplayer and co-op mode do you want to continue, i click yes, enter profile name then back to sqare one profile cant be created.

    I hope there is a fix for this i dont want to of spent £30 out on a game and cant use it, i be very annoyed.

    Steve

  13. Tom — November 11, 2008 @ 5:49 pm

    Same as Steve, cant create a online profile, and I already tryed the Solution from #7
    and btw, for xp users its:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players

    but its not helping(for me)

    hope that someone can solve it…

  14. Shaft — November 11, 2008 @ 6:37 pm

  16. metalhead666 — November 11, 2008 @ 7:21 pm

    Hi thanks for posting the various solutions… but my problem is not listed… I can only play the first level and then while loading the second level it crashes to desktop giving the following error

    “DirectX encountered an unrecoverable error.

    Check the readme for possible solutions.”

    I have already updated my drivers and directx but still no luck… I tried the unlocker to try try out other missions by just skipping the second one but still no luck… the game crashes on every level while loading except for the first one… Dnt know wats going on….
    Please help!!

  17. Bluenight — November 11, 2008 @ 9:52 pm

    My problem is a little odd. I can play and complete the first two missions (1.Semper Fi & 2.Little Resistance) without a single problem. But every time I try to load the third mission “Hard Landing” , the game crashes to desktop or sometimes my PC just hangs up. Pressing Alt+Tab or Ctrl+Alt+Del makes no difference , so I have press the restart button. Hope someone has the solution.

  18. sikira — November 11, 2008 @ 10:38 pm

    For all those who have problem with directx try downloading this file and installing it. maybe it can help.

    directx_nov2008_redist.exe

  19. Richard — November 11, 2008 @ 10:53 pm

    Hi guys, I am one of those guys with a Nforce2 motherboard and I’ve never been able to find a better driver than the last ones supported by Nnvidia(which are old). I’ve got an original copy of COD4 and I can’t play with PunkBuster on because they’ve never fixed a soundcard issue(onboard one) which forced me to rename mssmp3.asi to mssmp3.bak. This allows me to play the game (the microphone solution doesn’t solve it for me. The WAW demo wont even start. Running XP on a 3200 AMD with a Gforce 7600 GS and Realtek ALC 650 onboard card. Suggestions will be rewarded with digital praise.

  20. Glaeken — November 11, 2008 @ 10:58 pm

    I saw someone else had this problem, but none of the voices work in the game for me. I occasionally hear a Japanese guy die, but for mission dialog from fellow soldiers, anyone that talks doesn’t make a sound.

  21. sheffa — November 12, 2008 @ 12:42 am

    Hey, i have the same problem as metalhead666 and partly bluenight. I can play the first mission with no problem and when the second loads the game crashes and i cannot Alt+Tab or Ctrl+Alt+Del so i cant even see my error report. Not only in solo but in co-op and multiplayer too.

  22. Flameshot — November 12, 2008 @ 1:01 am

    hi i have a problem with starting the game up..installing worked perfectly but when i want to play the game.. it gives a MS-dos screen (2seconds) than dissapears.. if i look carefully it says.. program to large to fit in mermory.. but my computer is more than good to run call of duty (checked it at site) old games i also cant play with dos.. some1 know how the sollution? my english is not so good:$

    Greetzz from holland

  23. phal — November 12, 2008 @ 1:37 am

    The game crashes while it’s loading the mission Eviction. It just freezes there.

  24. steve — November 12, 2008 @ 1:39 am

    Can i just ask 1 Question.. Are any of you using the Donloaded leak version or the original version. as there is problems with the download version, you can play single player,but not multyplayer…

    Are you getting these errors on the leak version, or the Original, as the orgina dont come out untill after the 14th in the UK, so maybethats why there these problems, maybe ya should wait untill you buy the game when released..

    Steve

  25. MHB — November 12, 2008 @ 2:26 am

    Hey ,watsup, I ‘ve got the same problem as #19 Richard.

    If COD4 could work by editing a file, surely CODWaW should also have a fix, since its th same engine, the problem is that those files mentioned by #19 Richard are not present in CODwAW folder.

    Any help getting it working will be appreciated.

  26. Richard — November 12, 2008 @ 2:32 am

    MHB, if I find a workaround I’ll let you know. Still working on CoD4 itself. I am also considering buying another soundcard but a bit of assurance that these problems are indeed related and solvable by for instance a fix, better drivers or if I must buying another soundcard would be nice.

  27. Scott — November 12, 2008 @ 4:10 am

    hi…i can’t get the installation to work. it freezes at various points during the installation. i have windows vista ultimate, 32-bit.

  29. D — November 12, 2008 @ 5:36 am

    Hey everyone,

    If someone knows how to fix this that would be great.

    Greetings from the Netherlands

  30. underscore — November 12, 2008 @ 6:01 am

    When I try to connect to a server, cod 5 crashes and puts out an error in another window or the error is inpure client detected! iw_14.iwd … Could anybody help to solve the problem?

  31. Leo — November 12, 2008 @ 6:02 am

    I’m having problems with the voices as well. You can clearly see people talking but I’m not hearing anything they’re saying. Any fix for this?

  32. Max — November 12, 2008 @ 7:19 am

    FOR ALL THOSE WITH PROBLEM 2 AND 3 AND RUNNING XP!! the solution:

    1) right-click my computer and select properties
    2) select the hardware tab
    3) go on device manager
    4) go to Sound, Video, Game Controllers
    5) now at this part start to disable random things and check if the game works each time. i found out that what was screwing it up was the mic on my webcam. so basically just try disabling different things

    hope this helped. took me a while to figure out.

  33. Kenny — November 12, 2008 @ 7:28 am

    for all of u who cant find ur profiles.. the folders are “hidden”..try activate “show hidden folders” and u will find it.

  35. epiquestions — November 12, 2008 @ 8:29 am

    RE: “Error during initialization: Unhandled exception caught”

    This is for XP users as Solution #2 is for Vista users.

    I guess this occurs if you have an internal modem installed. Just go to control panel->sound…->got to hardware tab-> choose on the list with unimodem Half duplex something like that) and click properties and disable it.

    more info (not really needed to get the game to work :D)
    (I think this is the audio device of the modem(internal modems are just audio devices made to work as “modems”)

    cod5 seems to be getting this instead of the default playback device

  36. kma — November 12, 2008 @ 9:02 am

    I have had several “Hanging Issues” with a few games including this one and every time i disable AA{anti-aliasing} and it fixes the problem. Don’t ask me why, but it does. Most people may not realize have this problem until this game came out because most others didn’t turn on AA unless on high quality graphics settings, but WAW seems to turn it on by default no matter what.

    I get this with an 8800GTX, on a K9N Diamond mobo with 4gb’s SLI Ram and a 6000+ AMD Cpu. So it isn’t a low end hardware issue.

  37. Chris — November 12, 2008 @ 9:48 am

XD

  38. Tom — November 12, 2008 @ 10:27 am

    Thx epiquestions (#35) You’re my hero lol.

    I’d completely forgotten i even had an internal modem left in my box (figured i would have disposed of that years ago)

  39. Chris — November 12, 2008 @ 12:13 pm

    HEY!! I deleted Treyarch.bik. I played the game and everything went fine..Then as soon as I click new game and select my difficulty, the music just stops and the game freezes. I tried patching it but that didnt help. I could play CoD4 with no problem on High. Anyone have any solutions???

  40. mike — November 12, 2008 @ 12:19 pm

  44. metalhead666 — November 12, 2008 @ 3:50 pm

    Hi… I found a solution to my problem… Just install the latest Directx (November 2008 release) and revert back to ur old Nvidia Drivers… I had to revert back to the oldest drivers i had to get it working (The ones that came on cd with the card)… But after that i installed the driver version 175.16 and game works like a charm… No problems at all…

    Just try this it might solve the problem for you… It surely did for me…

  46. szedy — November 12, 2008 @ 5:06 pm

    Damm i find another solution for the unhandled exception! I tried many things , one of these must work (worked 4 me):

    1: go to C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    2: Delete __CoDWaWmp
    3: Go to players\profiles and delete all the player profiles here (except active.txt)

    This was the ONLY solution for me ;)

  47. MeThoD — November 12, 2008 @ 5:51 pm

    Szedy Your solution working me too!!
    GZ! Great Job! Great Thanks!

    You are awsome

  48. yoki — November 12, 2008 @ 6:03 pm

    I am on Vista 32
    And I installed cod5 from RELOADED.
    Well, the problem is not mentioned above by anyone so far.
    I can start the game and see the menu. But i couldn’t play the mission. It does not give me any warning or crashes. It only jumps back to the menu every time I want to select a difficulty. So imagine you want to play the first mission and you select veteran, then after that you are jumped back to the mission screen like if nothing happened.
    I have been stuck here for awhile and have no solution, I wonder if anyone know the reason and have solutions to that.
    Thx for reading my long problem.

  49. yoki — November 12, 2008 @ 6:05 pm

    oops, someone did have the same problems as me.

  50. Nirvana — November 12, 2008 @ 8:29 pm

    Doesnt this suck……….

  51. PanTalon — November 12, 2008 @ 8:56 pm

    I have same problem as Scott, #27. When i try to install, it freezes to different points of install, sometimes it installs about half of the game and sometimes it just freezes on the second file. Almost always on different file. Nothing works. try to press cancel but no reaction. Have to press restart button always.

    Help would be nice.
    Thank you

    Crash or Freeze During Install

    When installing it kept failing on IW_03 file and Activisions site said to download the CD/DVD Nero DriveSpeed speed utility and try 8x to 2x until it works. I found I had to go all the way down to 2x before I could install the game. It also said to clean out windows\temp directory. I tried that before I changed the speed and it didn’t help. I rebooted after installing the utility and it showed all the speeds to modify. Changing resolution also didn’t help before I downloaded the Nero DriveSpeed utility. In fact I change the resolution back before I ran the utility to get it installed. You can get the file here :

    http://www.cdspeed2000.com/download.html

    I wouldn’t try experimenting with different speeds, just go to 2x and save yourself some time. The fix on Activision site is number 22165 and is called Crash or Freeze during Install.

    Good Luck!!

  53. MadCat — November 12, 2008 @ 10:13 pm

    I hawe the same problem like guis before me. Could not connect to online service. What now?

  54. swag — November 12, 2008 @ 10:53 pm

    Het guys.

  55. Hevach — November 12, 2008 @ 11:16 pm

    I’ve had the same problem as a number of people above - I can start the game, but it freezes when I try to start a new game. Activision has said the game is incompatible with Realtek sound cards (Some Dell, HP, and Compaq computers have them onboard, likely other brands as well), and suggest changing the driver to the Microsoft Audio Drivers 6.0.

    Trying that currently, and will post the results.

  56. Hevach — November 12, 2008 @ 11:16 pm

    Well, that was q

  57. Hevach — November 12, 2008 @ 11:17 pm

    Well, that was quick, Microsoft Audio Drivers 6.0 don’t exist. No idea how to proceed now.

  58. Milos_bg — November 12, 2008 @ 11:31 pm

    Well, I’ve been told, that a file named “localized_english_iw01.iwd” hasn’t been found on my installation disk. I am using Vista32, have written that installation would be ok if I am installing without user right management, but also when I am doing with administrator rights there’s the error. Do you know what to do? Please forgive me my awful English. Bye and thanks from Germany…

    Hi… I found a solution to my problem… Just install the latest Directx (November 2008 release) and revert back to ur old Nvidia Drivers… I had to revert back to the oldest drivers i had to get it working (The ones that came on cd with the card)… But after that i installed the driver version 175.16 and game works like a charm… No problems at all…

    Just try this it might solve the problem for you… It surely did for me…

    ITs TRUEE!!

    Hi

    I installed cod5 and I cant get it to work. When I hit single player my computer starts to boot it up but nothing happens and then when I try to go into the multiplayer I get a windows error that says theres something wrong with the codwawmp.exe. I then put in the patch and still the same results happen. afterwards I tryed puting in a no-dvd exe in and still same story.
    PLEASE HELP!

  84. jlp — November 13, 2008 @ 10:15 am

    OK, in ref to #82 i had the console open while clicking the start game and it says i dont have a default profile, it never asked me for a profile. I checked in the players folder and there is nothing in there. How can i create a profile?

  85. swag — November 13, 2008 @ 10:26 am

    I am loaded but cant start either, appears to have something to do with sse. In cod4 Ichanged the mssmp3.asi, but alas cod5 doesnt have the miles file. Dont know which file to change. any ideas! Swag

  86. swag — November 13, 2008 @ 10:29 am

    By the way I have athlon xp processor it runs cod4 well! Swag

  87. tom — November 13, 2008 @ 10:31 am

    For those who have the problem that the game wont start when asked for the difficulty, here’s the solution.

    1: go to C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    2: Delete __CoDWaWmp
    3: Go to players\profiles and delete all the player profiles here
    4: Create a folder with the name you want for your profile.
    5: Create a txt file, name it “active” and write the name of the folder you’ve just created for your profile.

    The game should now take it as the default Profile, and it’ll start

    cheers

  88. swag — November 13, 2008 @ 10:35 am

    Hey Tom, I cant get there- when I hit on the screen to play single player the screen goes away, do you think this will fix this also? Swaag

  89. Mustafa — November 13, 2008 @ 10:41 am

    Tom u r just fucking rock thanks a lot man !!! it working perfect now..

  90. rebelitis — November 13, 2008 @ 10:44 am

    “5: Create a txt file, name it “active” and write the name of the folder you’ve just created for your profile.”

    iam confused about this step.
    write the username inside the txt file?… ? just an empty text file named “active” with our username in it?

    THANK YOU for the Clarification! MUCH appreciated!

  91. tom — November 13, 2008 @ 10:44 am

    swag
    You put Solo Campaign, New Game, Any difficulty and it returns to the last menu??
    If that’s your problem, the solution is the one that i’ve posted.

    A way to check that it worked is to look in the main menu, at the right top corner. you will see “Go Online” and below “Offline: The profile you created”. If the profile name doesn’t appear, the new game won’t start

  92. tom — November 13, 2008 @ 10:50 am

    rebeltis
    you write your profile name inside the txt file named “active”
    The txt file should be inside the “Profile” folder, not the one you created

    example:
    C:\Users\Tom\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\Profile

    Inside there should be a folder called “Tom”, and a txt file called active.txt while consists only of the word “Tom” inside (always without the “)

    That’s as clear as I can make it

  93. Arashi — November 13, 2008 @ 10:51 am

    hey Tom thanks for your help. But still your solution won’t work. I canno process from difficulty setting. Has any1 tried Tom’s solution?

  94. Arashi — November 13, 2008 @ 10:58 am

    never mind. I moved TXT filie to profile folder and not it works you rock Tom thank you very much :D

  95. jlp — November 13, 2008 @ 10:58 am

    Well i tried that, i even uninstalled, deleted the whole activision folder from program files AND appdata. When i reinstalled there was no profile folder, only a file named servercache.dat. I created a folder name “profile” another folder named “jamie” and then the the active.txt file with jamie in the text file. It still wont work and the offline on the game is blank, its still not loading the profile

  96. swag — November 13, 2008 @ 11:01 am

    Tom, I get the menu then hit solo and you hear it try to start but the menu dissapeers and that is it . cod4 did the same thing and I cured this with the rename of mssmp3.asi file in the miles folder. There is no miles folder in cod5! Thanks Swag

  97. tom — November 13, 2008 @ 11:03 am

    jlp
    you need one more step
    the folder in which you have the servercache.dat should also have a “players” folder. If you dont have it, create it. Inside that folder you should create another folder named “profiles”. Then inside that one you place the “jamie” folder and the txt file

    Hope it solves it

  98. tom — November 13, 2008 @ 11:05 am

    swag, did you try what I explained in the last posts??

    cos I had that exact problem and that solved it

  99. swag — November 13, 2008 @ 11:09 am

    Tom sorry I cant try that right now Im a battalion chief at a fire dept and am on duty. I am just gathering info for the fix I think I will need when I get home.Sorry I am slow with the talh here but the alarms have been going off, thats why I have to fix cod5 so I can unwind.lol

  100. madcatcasey — November 13, 2008 @ 11:20 am

    I have tried Tom’s solution, and I can verify that it works.

  101. swag — November 13, 2008 @ 11:24 am

    Hey madcat what processor do you have?

  102. Mustafa — November 13, 2008 @ 11:28 am

    C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles\tom (your profile name) and in the folder u should create a txt file name active.txt and after get in the txt file and write there tom (your profile name) and save open the game and play!Enjoy thanks again Tom..dont forget the delete other profile and also _CoDWaWmp ..

  103. DarkSaber — November 13, 2008 @ 11:43 am

    I have the same problem as 23. The loading bar for the Eviction mission gets to about 25% and freezes. It isn’t an issue with the video, as I temporarily deleted it, and it still froze there.

  104. Ko — November 13, 2008 @ 11:48 am

    Thanks for the solution Tom!
    I did what you said and I am able to start playing in Solo

  105. Marty — November 13, 2008 @ 11:48 am

    i get this error when i try to install the patch 1.1

    Error 1310 and sometimes 1304. error writing to file
    C/Program Files/Call of Duty - World at War/CODWAW.exe
    verify you have access to that directory

    I can play the single player without the patch when i put the disk and click single player. the sp worked fine and still does but I cant patch the game and play multiplayer. uninstalling removes the game but the COD folder is still there with the .exe file which i cannot remove

    I need help please

  106. yutori — November 13, 2008 @ 12:34 pm

    eviction crash me too.try reinstall same here.
    pls help…

  107. Marty — November 13, 2008 @ 12:40 pm

    i check the properties of the .exe file and it essentially doesn’t exist why i try to check it with text pad so it’s an empty .exe that i cannot remove, change, copy, paste anything….

    this seems like an empty virus caused by the patch and i can now no longer play single player :(

  108. Joseph Blow — November 13, 2008 @ 2:13 pm

    My game was freezing up randomly in both multiplayer and singleplayer and then I’d have to reboot. It did this all the time.

    I downloaded the latest Realtek High Definition audio drivers for my on board sound from the Realtek website - a file called “WDM_R208.exe” and now my game hasn’t crashed all night. Woot.

  109. Ely — November 13, 2008 @ 2:41 pm

    For those who have the problem that the game wont start when asked for the difficulty, here’s the solution.

    2: Delete __CoDWaWmp
    3: Go to players\profiles and delete all the player profiles here

  112. Tom — November 13, 2008 @ 4:20 pm

    secondly, I already tryed everything you say here but nothing works for me, when I get in the game its not showing any profile, and when I gwt out of game I have this “$$$” folder again and in the “active.txt” I have “$$$”

    and I cant create any new profile..

  113. Gonzo — November 13, 2008 @ 4:52 pm

    Ok, im running this game on XP and i have the problem where i double click the single play / coop option on my desktop and it opens up in to a black screen and flashes for about 1 second, then crashes back to desktop. I am desperate for solutions to this problem. i have tried changing screen res too 800×600 and that didnt help, i cannot find the sound card option to change it to studio quality… PLEASE HELP!

  114. oguzhan — November 13, 2008 @ 4:57 pm

    There is no

    C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW

    or

    CoDWaWmp

    in windows xp guys. i mean there must be some profiles somewhere, but it’s not there. there is no place like that actually. is this only for vista?

    I’m having the after difficulty select problem, created a players/profiles folder under

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\Start Menu\Programlar\Activision\Call of Duty(R) - World at War(TM)

    and in that, a folder with username and in that a txt file with active.txt name and in it my username again.

    Now, game opens, and when punkbuster kicks in - which i did not install - it just kicks me out and gives me the unhandled something problem. i think my only problem is that i cant delete CoDWaWmp. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE IT IS IN XP, I’M GOING CRAZY!

  115. oguzhan — November 13, 2008 @ 4:58 pm

    i mean the solo game when i say game opens by the way

  116. oguzhan — November 13, 2008 @ 5:08 pm

    wait my fault i was looking for the codwawmp in the wrong place i’ve erased it from the main game folder and punkbuster doesnt kick me out anymore, but my profile doesnt work either, i’m right back where i’ve started. there must be a profiles folder somewhere else in xp.

  117. szedy — November 13, 2008 @ 5:14 pm

    as i wrote at #46:
    1: go to C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    2: Delete __CoDWaWmp
    3: Go to players\profiles and delete all the player profiles here (except active.txt)

    This works on vista. I dont remember where you can find in xp, but it must be in documents….

  118. pedro — November 13, 2008 @ 5:16 pm

    i’ve done all that things in #109 and multiplayer just dont work! cant create online profile. After i just clicked: codwaw has encountered problem and needs to close. cant play online :\ PLEASE HELP!

  119. oguzhan — November 13, 2008 @ 5:18 pm

    well as i wrote at #114:

    there’s no

    C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW

    in xp.

  120. paulpinoy — November 13, 2008 @ 5:21 pm

    Pretty nice fixes youve got here. Anyway, about my problem:

    Ive been checking out garena’s codwaw room.

    Each time me and my friends play coop there, we are having hell lot of lag issue, Chinese players don’t have this kind of problem as far as I can see them playing with 3-4 players.

    We only have lag issue if we are playing 3-4 players coop but when it is only 2, there’ll be no problem at all. It is not our connection. We all have about 3mb dl and 1mb ul.

    I wonder if those chinese players have some kind of fix about it cause they are not having problems at all. Check out chinese room at garena. Players there with a decent dsl speed plays fine.

    More power to you!

  121. pedro — November 13, 2008 @ 5:27 pm

    anyway i realized that #109 is for profile fix errors but not in multiplayer. but someone help me out. i cant play online, i’ve been in 50 forums yesterday and i found nothing! helpppp

  122. ToM — November 13, 2008 @ 5:30 pm

    I told you, for xp users its:

    and this is a problem that affect a lots of people! in that 50 forums nobody can fix this problem! “can not connect to online service” damn!

  124. oguzhan — November 13, 2008 @ 5:52 pm

    tom i’ve found it, deleted all profiles, deleted __codWaW, created a folder inside players/profiles named oguzhan, created a txt file named active in it, wrote oguzhan into the text file. and it’s still not my default profile. do you have any ideas?

  125. oguzhan — November 13, 2008 @ 5:58 pm

    this is great, i did it, i misplaced the active file ive fixed it. now my default profile is oguzhan and i can press the new game, but when i do it guess what happens, IT FREEZES. it was all for nothin.. anyway guys, thanks.

  126. Gonzo — November 13, 2008 @ 6:19 pm

    got a solution for the “solo game won’t start” problem…

    i just did what u wrote above, creating a profiles folder and a folder with my username, also the active.txt within my username. but it doesn’t work… so i copied my active.txt into all folders above… meaning into the profiles folder, players folder and into the CoDWaW folder…

    guess what? it works ;)

  132. Brathering — November 13, 2008 @ 9:16 pm

  143. hell devil — November 13, 2008 @ 11:36 pm

    BobGertsen it’s so annoying… i cant play online. we need a solutionn

  144. sikira — November 13, 2008 @ 11:37 pm

    ok, here’s a solution for all of you who can’t connect to Online service…instead of making profile for playing Online (multiplayer mode) here is URL for a site with a list of serves with respective IP’s…when you enter the game don’t bother creating profile, just go to main screen turn console ON (by hitting tilde “`” key), then type “\connect IP” (where IP is the IP number of server).

    http://www.gametracker.com/search/codww/600/?page=1&sort=players&order=desc

    Have fun playing! :)
    P.S. once in server again use console to change your nick by typing “\name desired_nick”
    Don’t worry about loosing your stats when you leave the game…bcs you won’t :)

  145. david — November 13, 2008 @ 11:38 pm

    can not connect to online service. how do i fix this problem?

  146. david — November 13, 2008 @ 11:40 pm

    sikira i’ve tried that and it works but in the menu of multiplayer i cant go to “create a class”

  147. sikira — November 13, 2008 @ 11:43 pm

    well…which lvl are you? you certainly CAN’T create a class if you are level 1…were you able to do that in CoD4 at lvl 1? :)
    try getting some higher lvl’s, and see what happenes :)
    P.S. you can allways cr8 a class once the map finnishes inside a game :)

  148. david — November 13, 2008 @ 11:48 pm

    ok xD thank you

  149. steve — November 14, 2008 @ 12:52 am

    Ok i think i know whats going on why you cant get profiles.
    your either running a Cracked version ofthe game Being illegal or, if your running a original copy youve entered an invalid CD-Key.

    What i did was this. i downloaded the Cracked copy Just to try somethink out. the Cd key i found with the files was not letting me connect and make a profile.. So i searched around and found another CD-Key, now i changed the KEY over and exited the game and the re-opened the game, clicked on profiles, and found 15 profiles with differnt names on, i clicked on a couple to test them and each one cam back say CD-Key in use on differant PC.

    So if your using a downloaded Cracked/ Pirated copy, you will have these problems, and you Wont be able to make a Profile or Get online..

    If you have an original copy of the Game, then double check your CD-Key, Dont ask anyone to check it out,or you’ll lose it for good and ya wont ever be able to play the game.

    The CD-key i found will work to install the game, but wont let you play online even if ya able to creat a profile.

    So go buy an original copy of the game like i have.
    Now ive check this out and found out whats causing the problem, or think it whats causing the problem with the profile, i can now Delete it from my Spare PC, and play my origina l when it arrives this week..Was Download Was just a TEST. Illegal Game now removed.

    Downloading is illegal, Dont Do it buy the original if you want to play the game..

  150. thallium — November 14, 2008 @ 1:07 am

    I’m having the same exacty problem Gonzo is having post#113. I try to start the single player and it goes to the screen where it shows the “world at war” screen then it goes black for about a second then crashes to the desktop. that’s it. wont’ start for anything. I have the latest geforce driver for my 7600 gs.

  152. steve — November 14, 2008 @ 1:18 am

    REPEATE.. LOOK AND READ FOR BLACK SCREEN ISSUE, MAY RESOLVE CRASHING TO…

    hi ok i have a solution for no:1 black screen. i get this and i was told if you can get into the game the first time, open up console and enter these 2 commands.
    /r_fullscreen o
    /Vid_restart

    This will put you into a window box, and stopsall the black screen crapp.. you will need to go back into your game if screen is to small, select graphics and set it to your screen res, ie 1280X960 which i use, you can still play the game in nearly full screen say 95% It does stop the black screen issue then Tabbing out.

    OK MY Problem is: The Profile Dont Work.
    My main problem is im still not able to create a profile, even tho it tried (Dustmite of mininova) Soliution, i still get cant creat profile. as when i enter it i then get you need to create Profile to play multlyplayer and co-op mode do you want to continue, i click yes, enter profile name then back to sqare one profile cant be created.

    I hope there is a fix for this i dont want to of spent £30 out on a game and cant use it, i be very annoyed.

    Steve

  153. steve — November 14, 2008 @ 1:22 am

    Forget the last part about Profile issue, i have resolved it, it down to being a cracked download, i.e illegal copy.. dont play the download copy it wont work, Buy the original like i have, i only downloaded pirate copy to test out the Profile issues, ect

  154. Charger145 — November 14, 2008 @ 1:50 am

    Here is the fix for the profile, which means it will be at default on start-up.

    1. Make a map, named to your profile name.
    2. Change the text in Active.txt to your profile name.
    3. Set active.txt to read-only.

    This will mean, that the game cannot overwrite the existing file, so it will be always your profile on startup.

  155. smith — November 14, 2008 @ 2:02 am

    @ Steve _ Tried the Console trick but still get the darn DirectX Error.

  156. steve — November 14, 2008 @ 2:06 am

    ok only other thing to do is try re-installin DirectX which is found on the CD, just goto the folder and click setup, it that fails install a older version of DirectX.. Also try updating your Video Card Drivers to.
    what Error are you getting excatly.?

  157. ToM — November 14, 2008 @ 2:17 am

    lol steave(#144) this is what we(or just me?) doing till now
    open consol and /connect IP

    but we still need the profile to play co-op…

  158. ToM — November 14, 2008 @ 2:20 am

    I mean steve ^^ lol, I put tow names together, steav + steve :D

  159. steve — November 14, 2008 @ 2:22 am

    you can’t connect to online servers if using a Cracked copy of the game, not unless you have an original Valid Working CD-key.
    Keys from the Game cracks will only get you game working as single player, you need a VALID CD-key to play OPS, and multyPlayer. you will also require the V1.1 Update to play online.
    You might be lucky to find a few cracked servers around for these illegal copies of installed games, but you still need to get your profile to work first.

  160. Gus — November 14, 2008 @ 2:22 am

    ok.. i just uninstalled the game and reinstalled it again with the keygen from razor… it worked, now i can play the game.. but with some serious issues… the sound of the cinematics is distorted and when i played the first level i got some major frame rate drop along with further sound and music distortions… and all the sudden, BAM! black screen and the game crashes showing me that some screen driver stopped working normally… my video card is a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS with a 1680×1050 screen… this game sucks…

  161. steve — November 14, 2008 @ 2:54 am

    well i managed to get onto a server, and play, but for some strange reason i keep getting loads of profiles showing up in my direcory, i cant connect to any legal servers, but i have manage to connect to some cracked ones.lol

    For the GFX 8800GTS problem try lowing the resilution down to 1280/986 or around that type in game, maybe that might help out somewhat.

    Also update ya video drivers. if they are updated and still the same then i have heard that a older Vid graphic driver may work like the one on you driver CD. try that. so in other words if a new update of video drives dont seem to work go back to theold ons on the CD

    This game is disapoiting i agree. full of bugs and hard to configure, they need to get a new patch up soon to fix the profile issues.

    Steve

  162. Executor — November 14, 2008 @ 3:46 am

    I yust want edit man who say :

    Ok, for everyone getting the stupid endless black screen bug, the fix is incredibly simple. Just Alt+Tab out if it to switch to a new screen. Afterwards, Alt+Tab back into it, then hit Esc. The main intro should start right up. It’s worked for me everytime so far. Now I’m not 100% sure this works on XP or not, since I use 32-bit Vista, but I imagine it will.

    Assuming you have installed Call of Duty World at War in it’s default installation directory :

    Navigate to C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War\main\video

    and delete “Treyarch.bik”. It is recommended that you keep a backup of this video file

    I SAY : DO NOT DELETE ANY VIDEO. YUST RENAME “Treyarch.bik” video file to “Prayarch.bik”

    Have nice play day :)

  163. Crysis — November 14, 2008 @ 5:00 am

    first i am using xp. now i figured a solution for the black screen shit that pop up during start of the game. or during loading levels :

    first thing : make sure u have a profile for u. ( C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profile ) delete all folder in this profile except the active TXT file

    then : make a profile with a name u love. from the active TXT delete all names then put the name you choosed for the profile then close and save.
    THAT FOR THE BLACK SCREEN DURING START OF THE GAME

    FOR the black screen during loading levels ( this happened to me ) you will find the level which the game crash during loading in SOLO….. MISSION SELECT … if the game is saving with you.

    while i attempt to try again , i said to myself what worse if i try to press ( DEFAULT SYSTEM SETTING ) . and guse what the game was loading perfectly without no problem or any stupid crash. of course the graphic was bad but while playing i changed again to mine with no problem or any crash… from that i found the solution ( before loading level press DEFAULT SYSTEM SETTING then in the game change as you like.

    I HOPE I COULD HELP ANY ONE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.

  164. Maani — November 14, 2008 @ 5:39 am

  169. tallyho — November 14, 2008 @ 7:55 am

    Thanks to Neil C for his solution to error #3 (see below) - this worked for me too (I’ve only got as far as loading the game - not tried playing it yet). Turned out I had a soft modem driver/app installed although not sure from where - do also have two sony ericsson there but they seem fine. Cheers, and hope this helps.

    # Neil C — November 13, 2008 @ 8:44 am

    I was getting error #3 and tried all fixes with no luck. Foound on another site to go to Control Panel -> Modems and remove all your modems and this worked!

  173. Spewnz — November 14, 2008 @ 9:22 am

    I load the game up fine, starts the Treyarch video, that loads fine, I can create an account fine, then once I hit the main menu things just stop. The program stops responding and I cannot close it through task manager or ctrl-alt+delete. I have to restart my computer to get my mouse to show through again also. There is also no error message.

    However if I run the game and make it freeze, then restart, then load it up again it will run fine. Although if I close the game and try and start it up again, freeze at main menu, same problem. Any help would be great, thanks.

  174. swag — November 14, 2008 @ 9:25 am

    Hey, does anybody know which folder or where the file is located in cod5 that contains ths sse instructions? I only have sse and I am sure cod5 is probaably sse-2. If someone knows where it is and how to get to it it can probably be renamed. This will probably solve the starting problems for alot of users. thanks

  175. Force88 — November 14, 2008 @ 9:27 am

    Hi, I got problems with select difficulty & the game didnt start at all. I go to codwaw folder, delete _codwaw,
    then go to profile, delete all in ther,
    then create a folder with name Force88,
    then create a txt file name active.txt in profile folder,
    then type Force88 inside the newly created file.
    But these didnt solve the problem.
    can you help me ?

  176. smith — November 14, 2008 @ 9:32 am

    Being that I’ve never experience this much anguish trying to get a game to run, I ask is this more normal than usual to see this many issues showing up? Will the Developers address these bugs?

    Too bad Game Stop won’t give you a refund on opened software, only exchanges.

  177. Just like CoD4 profiles — November 14, 2008 @ 9:54 am

    OK!!! You all have CoD4 i assume. for windows XP, its the EXACT SAME profile system. So make your profile in WaW look just like CoD4’s and youll be golden.

  178. Gus — November 14, 2008 @ 10:01 am

    ppl, i dont know if it helps, but let me tell u that i had the profile ang black screen problems… it all went away by simply uninstalling and reinstalling the game and using the Razor Keygen when cdkey is asked.. oh, and i upgraded the NVIDIA drivers i had.. apparently, nvidia released a new driver last month… now the game works perfectly without a glitch.. but i have to test playing the game on a 1680×1050 resolution, since im playing it on 1280×960… good luck to u!

  179. Potatoes — November 14, 2008 @ 10:18 am

    I can’t start a game. When I click on singeplayer, new game, then choose my difficulty, it just takes me back to the screen that says “new game” or “select mission”. No error messages or anything. Doesn’t even crash, it just does nothing.

    Anyone else get this? I’ve googled but there are no solutions.

  180. merflin — November 14, 2008 @ 10:44 am

    I originally had the water droplet error (#3). I did everything I saw here (except I had to disable my soundcard completely — the method they showed wasn’t working on my xp pro). I installed the november 2008 directx 9.0c package.

    and now I get this everytime, safe mode or not:

    Has anyone encountered this problem when trying to start Multiplayer, i get the message “Retrieving Account Information”…than it crashes, “unhandled exception caught” message pops up ? it keeps creating profile folder names, in the CodWaW/players/profiles folder…i have deleted them, and set the folder to read only..but to no avail..

  186. Twiztid — November 14, 2008 @ 11:57 am

    OK, so I have been getting a few random crashes on MP. But I tried playing SOLO. And when I get to the 2nd level Resistence. I get to the point where you have to kill the first mg in the bunker, and then a bunch of enemies come out…from that point if I move up by that bunker my game freezes and my screen kind of turns into how the predator vision looks. Infared is thebest I can describe it. The sounds gets all screwed and skips too. I have a GeForce 8500 GT 512mb. Pent 4 3.2 2g Ram. I have newest directx….newest nvidia drivers. I even tried disabling my sound card and it still did it. Same spot in the game…everytime. Any ideas?

  187. Oxydie — November 14, 2008 @ 12:03 pm

    Hi guys. I had a problem that i basically dident have a profile. After some time i fixed it(btw this can be used to create a profile too, I think):
    1. Go to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players (Windows XP: “Users” is called “Documents and Setting”) REMEMBER: These files are HIDDEN, so you need to make em visable.
    2. Delete all data in the “players” folder exept active.txt(if you dont have it, create one).
    3. Make a folder with your wanted Profile name.
    4. Then, and this is the important part!!, type your profile name in the active.txt file and save it!
    5. Start the game and your profile name should be in the top right corner :)

    I finally got the game running Fullscreen at 1680×1050. I had been using the most recent WHQL Nvidia drv. and saw where someone posted they had the game running by installing Nvidia drv. 175.16 _ I just tried it, and in Solo and Multiplayer was able to do 4 different maps with no Black Screen crashes or the DirectX Encountered an Unrecoverable Error meaasge.

    My fingers are crossed for the time being.

  192. ed_jpa — November 14, 2008 @ 1:15 pm

    Hello. I am writing this post because I have a problem that is really making me go mad. I installed the patch 1.1 for COD 5 and whenever I enter the multiplayer mode it crashes right away. shows “retrieving accounts information” for 2 secs, and… crashes.
    I managed to start again the mp mode, after googling a while I found out that by deleting the player profiles in C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players I could start it again. But the problem is that this way I have to start ranking-up again each time I play, because the next time I start the game I have to delete the profiles again, otherwise it will just crash again :/
    Anyone here who has had this problem and can eventually help me out?

    guys, the profile problem is easy to handle if you do the filing right, just follow tom s instructions. but problem is videos with me. i guess its because i have a realtek on board sound card, do you know if there’s any way to work it out without changing my sound card?

  199. ed_jpa — November 14, 2008 @ 4:30 pm

    oguzhan, I did follow the instructions, and believe me, I still have a problem. after I do everithing that is on the instructionsm I start a new game, play, and exit. when I enter the game again it crashes. and I have to delete the profile again to play again. I cant keep my profile!

  200. kana007 — November 14, 2008 @ 4:37 pm

    For those with Windows XP and onboard Realtek sound

    If you have the “Unhandled exception caught” and your game
    crashes when starting up. Remove all modems from device
    manager. I removed my modem years ago so I did not think
    I had one, but then I went to control panel/add remove
    programs and to my surprise I found “Agere Soft Modem”
    I removed it and the game started for my. I still had
    to do the profile fix to get the game working.

  201. Justin — November 14, 2008 @ 4:42 pm

    I’m having problems with the Profile, and I’ve tried to do the common solution, C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players
    So I follow to directory but after clicking on my name, I cannot find the AppData and in Users, there are Administrator, (My name), and Public. And there are nothing in Admin file and public just has… files. Anyone help me out please?

  202. oguzhan — November 14, 2008 @ 5:24 pm

    @ed_jpa

    man, that’s uncommon, i dont have any idea why it’d do that but i’ll look it up.

    @kana007

    is modem erasing only fixes the unhandled something problem - which is for multiplayer - or does it fix the videos of singleplayer too?

    @justin

    Are you using xp or vista?

  203. ed_jpa — November 14, 2008 @ 5:49 pm

    solved it. apparently, I do not need a folder with my name. instead I just need a folder named $$$ where the progress is saved, the active.txt with user name in it, and thats all. now it works. every time I run the mp mode it asks me to create a profile, but I just cancel it and the progress of the last times I played is still there, even though on the top right of the screen no profile name appears. then all I had to do was to go to the options and put there the name I wanna use. Now I have game progress saved and my username, and it doesnt crash anymore ^^

    Justin, if u use vista, just press alt for the usual top windows menus appear, go to folder options and make the hidden folders visible. that way you will find that directory.

    thx for the attention, all

    Bloody hell… Activision launches a beta without any QA or something. What a load os errors and crashes… even to the people that have the original game.

    OGUZHAN, I have a realtek onboard sound card too. The movies works fine, but I have the “no voices problem” in the middle of the game. I updated my sound drivers, nothing. I checked the DirectX, all fine. I do the audio troubleshooter and still got the problem. I don´t think it´s because of ours onboard sound card, it´s just this crap game. Everything else works full on my machine, even Far Cry 2. If I got any effective solution I´ll post it here.

    HELP ME!!

  209. Leebob — November 14, 2008 @ 9:26 pm

    Im also having the same problem as comments (21,31,71,136)

    “at the first mission of the game it was all fine
    but i noticed that when i reached the second level
    everyones voices dissapeared
    i can see them moving their lips and talking
    but i dont hear any voices”

    Is there a solution to this sound problem?

  210. DarkSaber — November 14, 2008 @ 10:05 pm

    Regarding the Eviction crash (23,103,106,137,193, 207): It appears to be an outdated video card driver issue. I finally found the correct update (no thanks to NVidia and Asus), and after installing it and restarting, the problem went away (all level load times sped up drastically, too).

    The driver I am using is for an NVidia GeForce 8600M GT, and related cards. If you’ve ever tried to update drivers for that card, you know it makes you want to shoot yourself. The driver (version 176.28) can be found here:

    http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/drivers/xp/176.28

    If your graphics card is listed there, download the new driver, unzip it, and install it. If the included installer program doesn’t work:
    1. Go to Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> Display Adapters, and double click on your card.
    2. Switch to the “Driver” tab, and click “Update Driver”.
    3. Tell it to “install from a specific location” and click next
    4. Check the box that says “Include this location in the search”, then select the folder where you extracted the zip file to.
    5. Hit next, and it should update. Hope this helps.

  211. DarkSaber — November 14, 2008 @ 10:11 pm

    If you open the game, it displays a box and changes your desktop resolution, then stops and returns to the normal desktop (208 and related comments), and you are running XP:

    1. Go to Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> Sound, video, and game controllers.
    2. Right click on “Unimodem Half-Duplex Device” and select “Disable”.
    3. A little red x should appear over the device icon. Close all the windows, and the game *should* work. Good luck.

    in multiplayer my frame rate is smooth perhaps because it does not fill a crack ··· reloaded·····

    Hi.
    I’m using XP. I had the “Unhandled exception caught” error and the game crashed when starting up. I hadn’t any “Unimodem Half-Duplex Device” to disabled and changing sound setting didn’t help either.
    But then I read somewhere to try to install DirectX from DVD. As I hadn’t done it when I installed the game I gave it a try. And guess what?? The game’s working now.

  220. Oxydie — November 15, 2008 @ 1:19 am

    Those who are having Profile problems and problems with finding profle files, go to comment 187 and the answer should be there. REMEMBER the profile files are HIDDEN, so you need to “un-hide” them. This is done(noobie Guide):

    1. Go to “My computer”

    2. Then “Tools”

    3. Then “Folder options” or likewise(i have the swedish xp version)

    4. Then the second tab, probably named “Visability” or like that

    5. Then under “Hidden files and folders” select, “Show hidden Files and folders”

    Then you should be able to find the Profle file :D

    Call of Duty World at War 1st mission problem.
    I went to the point where the team must reach to extraction point, where I have to puncture a fuel barrel in a truck. After puncturing the barrel there’s a sound of the truck moving and couple of trucks in the enemy camp ahead blows up. But, actually, the truck hasn’t moved and the gates are still closed. I can’t get beyond that point even if I killed all the enemies.

  226. Bull — November 15, 2008 @ 3:10 am

    I had an issue where my game would crash to desktop or just plain freeze to where i had to task manager out to get back to my desktop. I have seem to narrow down the possible problem since i have not had a crash in about 3 hours of play. It seems that the game does not like SLI configuration.I downloaded the 180 drivers for vista 64 and tried everything. I finally decided to turn off SLI and set the game options to single card. I have had no problems yet after 3 hours of play when i could even play 4 minutes before. And yes i did download the patch for the game that is SUPPOSSED to improve SLI support. What a joke that was

    I have a XFX 8500GT card and i updated my FGX Drivers, and installed the DX from the Game, and im having no problems whats so ever.
    Try uninstalling the GFX Drivers and then put you old ones on from the CD, then install DirectX 9.0C then try, if that Fails then try
    updating the Graphics card Drivers to the new ones, then try again, if that fails then i have no other options to give to you..
    i have a Due-core 4800+ processor, 2-gig OCZ memory, 8500GT GFX card.. CODs runing ok for me.

    dan: you need the No CD Pactch from GameCopyworld to run game without CD.Oh and Buy an original.lol dont run illegal copies, they screw up all the time.

    ed_jpa: many had this problem of game but wanted to play it coz ya running a PIRATE Copy. if you downloaded the Reloaded Version thats crapp, do a GOGLE search for COD World at wa VIP-FILE

    I’m getting the same problem as Gonzo and Thallium with the black screen. This is DIFFERENT than the never ending black screen. I believe in that case you’re getting to the game menu screen or some other screen but the problem we’re having is the game crashes before any screen starts except the title briefly shows then the black screen for a second or two then it flickers then gone. The solution above with the path C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profile
    I don’t have that. I have:
    C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War
    with an executable icon CoDWaW but no folder by that name. I’ve tried creating & inserting the profile info into both that icon executable (can’t do it) and into the folder where that file resides and I’m having no luck. Any thoughts?

  236. Bull — November 15, 2008 @ 5:13 am

    I have just found another problem with the game crashing at start up. If anyone is having this problem where the game gives you a stopped working error and sends back to desktop, check your audio drivers or version. I have the latest EVGA audio drivers for a 790i FTW mobo. When those speakers are engaged my game will not load and crashs to desktop right off the bat. If i plug my logitech headset in and set that to default speakers the game runs fine. Hopefully this will help peoeple who cant start the game right form the begging

    hey guys, well, for me everyting works fine, i playd the game the first 6 missions, and then i just stopped playing,

    i restarted the game the next day, to play some more, and i saw that all my missions were gone, just gone like i never played.

    so thats fuckd up, so i wanted to start the first mission again and when i click on the mission its ok, then comes the difficulty selection, and when i choose the difficulty nothing happens, it pops back to the mission select screen.

    so its like i cant play my game anymore now, when i select a mission nothing happens, very strange, i tried resetting, and deleting all the files like you guys explained in C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players

    the strange thing is i never found a active.txt in it

    so what should i do ?

  249. swag — November 15, 2008 @ 8:00 am

    C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profile

    it may be hidden so you should do ( show hidden files )

    “SELECT DIFFICULT” PROBLEM PEOPLE

    Hi guys, I will try to help. I got the same damn problem and it was solved this way

    1: VISTA -> go to C:\Users\[yourname]\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    XP -> go to C:\Documents and Setting\[yourname]\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    2.1: Delete __CoDWaWmp
    // OR //
    2.2 Rename the profile directory inside the players directory
    3: Go to players\profiles and delete all the player profiles here (except active.txt)

    Substitute the [yourname] by your user name in the machine. The same thing was said above. I had to try this solution a couple of times. It didn´t work at the first shot. Only by renaming the profile it works. But now I have other problem with the voices…

    I hope it helped.

    I´ve installed the Skullptura version, and i cant find the C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players path because i installed with a *.BAT extension file in a directory that i chose.
    Can someone helpme , particulary because i have a diferent version of the game´s installer pliz???

    Thx a lot

  270. prince — November 15, 2008 @ 10:58 am

    ok see the problem with #187 is that i do everything but a random folder called “$$$” keeps popping up everytime i start the game which doesn’t make my profile. my name in the active.txt also gets replaced with $$$. the game doesn’t allow $$$ as a profile name so it just doesn’t do anythiing. i cant stop this folder from coming so #187 is worthless even if you follow it word by word. the folder just keeps popping up and i can’t stop it. any ideas anyone?

  271. DarkSaber — November 15, 2008 @ 11:04 am

    Everyone with Eviction problem:
    I have already mentioned a solution on post 210; it is an outdated graphics card driver problem.

    If your video card is not in the list given on that link, try searching for the latest version for your card here:

  272. Kezarus — November 15, 2008 @ 11:21 am

    ARMAND

    I have the same version as you do: Skullptura´s rip to install via bat file. I found the path in my PC without a problem. Pay attention to your folder configuration if the option “Hide protected archives from Operational System” [something like that in english] are unchecked.

    If so, and you still doesn´t find the files, tell me. I´ll try to search for something else. The Skullptura´s version works fine for me, except by the voice problem…

  273. ZERO — November 15, 2008 @ 12:09 pm

    HERE IS THE FIX FOR THE WATER DROPLET CRAP #3 -XP USERS-

    I AM USING REALTEK HD AUDIO DRIVERS AND KEPT GETTING THAT

    THIS IS ALL YOU HAVE TO DO….

    CONTROL PANEL, PHONE AND MODEMS, CLICK THE MODEMS TAB, DELETE ANY AND ALL MODEMS LISTED ON THAT TAB. WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU NEED IT ANYWAY?

    DID THAT AND IT WORKS PERFECT NOW. THANKS GUYS.

  274. kronner — November 15, 2008 @ 12:31 pm

    oh great.. now i cant connect to MP online.. it always appears “awaiting connection..1..2..3..4..5 server connection timed out” i’ve tried a lot of servers.. how do i fix this? thanks

  275. merflin — November 15, 2008 @ 3:06 pm

    Again..not all of us have a freaking modem combo with our realtek drivers. I wound up getting the skulltula version which has a lame ass batch file to install it (can’t anything be straightforward? This game is a pain enough out of the box). The skulltula release makes you have to edit the bat file in 20 thousand different places if you want to install the piece of bloat to somewhere other than your root drive, AND it assumes we’re all lame enough to want to play games on Vista. so this is going to be the 4th time i have to re-DL the son of a bitch which I’ll have to just sit on until there’s a working patch from ACTiViSiOn.

  278. EKP — November 15, 2008 @ 4:45 pm

    Hi all,

    I’m having a problem with running COD5.
    When I’m choosing Single Player/Co-opp, I click it, and then the screen goes black for about one second,then it adjusts, and then an error comes up saying: ‘Call Of Duty(R): World At War Campaign/Coop has stopped working’. After that the only option is to close the program. I’ve tried uninstalling COD and then reinstalling it, with no luck. I’ve looked on the support from Activision, also with no luck of a fix. Does any one know of what I can do?? I’ve never seen the main menu of the game. :(

    Thanks for your time,
    EKP

  281. Puto — November 15, 2008 @ 5:40 pm

  284. Crysis — November 15, 2008 @ 6:43 pm

    For the people who already changed the profile name.
    but the ( create online profile ) keep poping :

    that because the game may overwrite what you do.
    the solution is to do the same steps as mentioned before but after changing the TEXT file……. from options make this file ( READ ONLY ) . to stop the game from over write what you did.

  285. Leebob — November 15, 2008 @ 8:12 pm

    Does anyone know how to solve this sound problem,

    you can’t hear the voices of the men, you see there lips moving but no sound. All other sounds work within the mission apart from the voices of the soldiers…

    It makes game-play crap, anyone have a solution?

  286. EKP — November 15, 2008 @ 8:40 pm

    Is the patch worth installing? Will it fix my problem? Refer to #278

  288. Grable — November 15, 2008 @ 9:04 pm

    Ok I have a problem:

    I’ve kind of tried all the solutions from the above posts, deleting the players folder etc.

    The problem is that when i start the game it won’t even ask me to create a profile anymore(i heard you can play online if you cancel the part when it asks you to create a profile and then just set your name in Multiplayer options).

    So how to make my game ask me to create a profile?

    Or why can’t I set my name in multiplayer options, the only thing i can set there is a clan tag. (PS: /name command doesn’t work either, i’m still Unnamed Player or whatever.)

    Also i tried making a profile manually thru “players” folder, i can play it with this profile only once, when i exit the game and start it again, the game just crashes when it tries to load a profile that was already made. So with this method you must reset your level and xp every time you start the game which is shit.

    All help is appreciated.

    I have a PS3. I only play online. The first day I bought it it worked fine no problems. However, the last couple of days I can get into the game and play one game then after the first game it gets stuck on a loading screen and I can no longer play. I try to shut down the playstaion but it never turns off. Then i flip the switch in the back and restart it. Then the playstation says there is a start up error when I try to restart the game. After about an hour i can then go back and play the game but always freezes after the first game. Its not the game because I took it to afriends house and it worked fine. I am sending it to playstaion on monday but if I can find a solution that would be nice.

    xbox360 consule - when installing patch which is required before you start the game for the first time, xbox got hung up. when only playing game either freezes or i get a green screen within 4 min of play and xbox locks up. on all other games the system is fine just this game. i took the game back and got a new one. still the same problem.
    My guess - the patch is corrupted.

    does anyone know what could be causing this problem?
    I’m thinking about reinstalling the patch but don’t know how to remove the old one.

    also, Infinity Ward is in the second story of the building where i work, i may just ask them for help.

    Profile problem here. My buddy has the disc and installed it. Bought a cd key, but he can’t create a profile. We are working on all the possible solutions listed here, but I wanted to get this in here in case someone else is working under similar conditions.

    Same problem as #64, #110, #118, #129, #171, #281 #283 #287 #292.

    I get this error in windows vista ultimate

    “Call of Duty(R): World at War Multiplayer has stopped working

    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows
    will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.”

    has anyone found out how to fix this yet? This is really frustrating I bought this game today and haven’t even gotten to the main screen yet.

  343. john — November 16, 2008 @ 2:02 pm

    Ok in my profiles i do not have an ative.txt file. In the CoDWaW folder i have profiles,__CoDWaWmp and aservercache.
    The profiles area is and always has been blank. I tried making a txt folder naming it active.txt, placing my username inside the txt,saving then making a folder with the same name i placed inside the txt file. Same junk not starting game and not letting me create a profile. Is there a place i can just download the profile info? this is really getting me mad.

  344. knowledge — November 16, 2008 @ 2:23 pm

    my call of duty stays black for a few minutes then finally loads. I put the unleashed unlocker as instructions said but it would not work. Finally i think i figured it out. I noticed that when game starts it connects to internet and wants you to make a username. So first i put Unleashed unlocker as instructions said then i disconnected internet and when game starts it said it could not connect to internet. I continued and there were all the levels open. I also had the crashing problem while starting game with a error a few times before and disconnecting internet solved that problem also.I believe that when game start since it wants you to make a username it does not load the username that you have saved in profiles. Hope this helps.

  345. john — November 16, 2008 @ 2:27 pm

    I tried every possible thing on this forum. I cant start the game. I have been blocking the game since start. I am trying game with reloaded copy. It would be nice if someone could just make a profile fix.

    Hi, i have a problem with my multiplayer option. I go on Multiplayed and then go to Find Game and it shows a number of severs (around like 20…) and all the servers names are either WaWHost or sumthign like that and other one servers are called Download the Patch. I already downloaded the new patch and i cant play online, i really want to play online could someone please tell me any hints or tips on how fixing this problem Thank You.

  347. john — November 16, 2008 @ 2:35 pm

    ——————————————–
    New game fix. where you cant start a game it just keeps going back.

    FIX————-

    goto gamecopyworld.com and look up the call of duty WaW then download –Call of Duty: World at War UNLOCKER–
    It is just a save game that unlocks the game. Thats it guys. Dont waste your time screwing around with folders and renaming them. Just download the file and copy/paste it to the profiles folder. The appdata folder might be locked so youll have to go into folder options for XP and select show all hidden files.(if you havent already been in there like myself. it is simple as that.

  348. knowledge — November 16, 2008 @ 2:37 pm

    John , what error do you get when game starts?
    I got the unleashed profile from gamecopyworld.com.
    it unlocks all the levels.it gives you instructions on how to put it also.

  349. Fiido — November 16, 2008 @ 2:38 pm

    Btw, for you guys with the “Black Screen” problem all u have to do is Alt+Tab out of the game then Alt+tab back into it and once it goes back to the black screeen press Esc and the menu should pop up right away or after like 5 seconds or so… if this doesnt work then ur Video Card is under the requirment cuz mine was and i got a new one 2dai and im able to play but Solo really lags for me and multiplayer isn’t working either… as i said in my previous forum, most of the servers are name “download the patch” or “WaWhost” or something similar to that so please help me and tell me if my solution helped u Thx!

  350. Fiido — November 16, 2008 @ 2:42 pm

    Btw John where can i find the profiles folder? lol i cant find it can u please tell me step by step how to get there? i looked everywhere btw im using Windows XP Home Edition. Thx.

  351. knowledge — November 16, 2008 @ 2:54 pm

    The profiles folder is i /C/Documents and settings/username
    There are two folders there , one is Application Data and in it it will have the Activision folder where your profile folder will be. The other is in Local Settings/Application Data, the activion folder is in there also. I put the Unleashed profile on both of these folders.
    Most importantly to be able to view these folders you need to unhide the folders to be able to see them.
    In case you dont know how all you have to do is when you go to C/Documents and settings/username (your username, mine just says hp administrator)and open that folder, on top click on tools then folder options, then view, then look down the list and check the box that says show hidden files and folders. Then you will be able to see the Application Data folder and the Local settings Folder.

  356. Nilesh — November 16, 2008 @ 4:26 pm

    To #186, the problem is that your Graphics Card is the limit for playing Call Of Duty: World At War. Due to this your card generates lots of heat which causes the textures and images to appear distorted and ‘Colorful Infrared’ like you said. If you cannot afford to buy another Video Card, buy a cooler fan and adjust it directly on your card it will decrease the heat by a few degrees which can drastically improve your issue.

  357. Fiido — November 16, 2008 @ 4:40 pm

    Guys… anyone kno how i can fix my Multiplayer issue? Ill say it again xD, i load up WaW then click Multiplayer, it goes in the menu then when i press Find Game it shows about 20 servers with the name or WaWhost or something similar to it and another name of a server is called Download the Patch… i already downloaded the patch im pretty sure even if i try to download it again it says i already downloaded it lol… can someone please help me.

  363. oguzhan — November 16, 2008 @ 6:26 pm

    this game is not worth the while, trust me. play dead space, or fallout 3. i worked my ass off to get it work, then finally i got it, and it is not a modern warfare, it is nowhere close to it. i mean dont get me wrong, sure i knew it was a WW2 game again, but my expectations from the general performence were different, and turned out it’s just another average WW2 game with some technique and scenario copied from modern warfare.

  366. kaoticKiller — November 16, 2008 @ 7:45 pm

    GUYS, IF YOU HAVE THE PROBLEM WITH DIRECTX AND HAVE ALREADY INSTALLED IT. IT IS NOT THE PROBLEM, THE PROBLEM IS, DO NOT UPDATE TO THE LATEST DRIVERS, USE THE DRIVERS THAT ARE COMPATIABLE WITH YOUR CARD, IN MY INSTANCE I HAVE A 8800 GTS XFX BRAND I USED THE LATEST AND THEY CAUSED ALL SORTS OF GRAPHICS PROBLEMS AND CRASHES, SO I UNINSTALLED THEM AND RAN DRIVESWEEPER AT SAFEMODE AND REINSTALLED THE 175.16 DRIVERS. WORKS THE BEST GRAPHICS AND NO MORE CRASHES, SO WHEN SOMEONE SAYS TO USE THE LATEST DRIVERS, DONT. USE THE DRIVERS THAT ARE COMPATIABLE WITH YOUR GRAPHICS CARD.
    IT TOOK ME HOURS OF STUFFING AROUND TO WORK THIS OUT. ENJOY THE GAME.

  367. Lanf — November 16, 2008 @ 8:33 pm

    I haven’t updated them the broplem is this “cannot connect to internet service” and the issue “cannot create online profile”
    and the saving broplems too. did forget to mention something?

  368. Fuck This Shit — November 16, 2008 @ 8:58 pm

    I had ALL the problems mentioned above… All!!! But guess what? I fixed ‘em all!!!! Very simple and very easy:

    JUST UNINSTALL THE GAME, THEN DELETE EVERY FUCKIN FILE RELATED TO THIS FUCKING SHIT OF A GAME AND VOILA!!

    «««—VERY IMPORTANT—-»»»

    1) IF YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL GAME, TAKE THE DVD, PUT IT IN A METAL SECURE RECIPIENT; POUR SOME ALCHOOL ON IT ; THEN LIGHT IT… LET IT BURN TO A CRISP!

    2) IF YOU HAVE THE DOWNLOADED COPY; DELETE IT; DOWNLOAD IT AGAIN JUST TO DELETE IT AGAIN THEN FORMAT YOUR HOLE FUCKIN PC…

    Very simple and efficient… and if you want a bonus just put up a post at Activision telling them to FUCK OFF AND DIE!!!!

    Over and completely out.

  372. mcz — November 16, 2008 @ 10:23 pm

    ok guys i have the solution to make the singleplayer work

    if you have a problem when you want to click on difficulty and it just pops back the screen, just do this

    go to : C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    and delete everything.
    then you make a folder called profiles; in that you make a folder called your username for example : QWERTY ; in that folder you make a .txt file called active; and in that .txtfile you type again QWERTY, save it.

    again go : C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    make a folder called players, in that folder; make a folder called profiles (yes*again) in that folder you only place the .txt file active with your username in it.

    now the trick is, you need to place the active.txt file in every folder in C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW ( i know sounds silly but just do it )

    so you need to have like 2 folders, called players and profiles, and in the folder players there is a folder called profiles again, np, then you just copy the active.txt into all folders.

    when you have done that you probally can choose a acount, or yours, and start the game.

    if you have problems with the missions crashing just do this :

    first of all, you need to play the missions with the console
    i will give you a list of all the level names in singleplayer

    sniper
    see2
    pel2
    pel1b
    pel1a
    pel1
    pby_fly
    patch
    outro
    oki3
    oki2
    ber3b
    ber3
    ber2
    ber1

    ok enable the console in the game, and if you are stuck in a mission, like what happend at mine at mission 7.

    just bring up the console by typing ~ and you type sv_cheats 1, then you type devmap mak ( first level ) or devmap see2 ( mission 8) the problem is that if you type like map or mp_…
    it wont load the sp mission, so you need this shortcuts names of the missions.

    uhm, ye so when you are stuck on a level, just try to find the next mission so you wont miss to much.

  373. mcz — November 16, 2008 @ 10:33 pm

    if you want to find the mission names you can go to your cod5 game folder and look in the folder zone and then in the folder english, in there you find some .cfg files, with the names of the missions, so you can load, them, i tried to find the mission names on the internet, and nobody got them this is the only way to make it work, i hope i helpd you guys out, it works for me and i playd call of duty5, and its a great game really, just full of fucking bugs.

    When I launch Cod 5, This window open: Call of Duty(R): World at War Campaign/Coop has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

    Error signature: AppName: codwaw.exe

    Same for CoDWaWmp.exe

    I think this may have something to do with having an old cpu because I can’t play farcry 2 because my anthlon xp 2500 barton is not supported. which is dumb because with my hd2600 xt i can play call of duty 4 great.

  393. Bass-A — November 17, 2008 @ 8:54 am

    I actually have a new problem with CODWaW. My issue is that when I finally connect to a server, I can play for like 2-3 maps in full. When the 4th map comes up it says “cannot connect” or something along those lines. When my cursor passes over the menu buttons at the main screen, the sounds that usually are there are now there x 1,000. What I mean is when I pass my cursor over the buttons (AFTER getting booted from my 3 maps worth of gaming) I have an unlimited click sound when it goes over the buttons. I have also noticed that I cannot connect to any server without restarting the game. Restarting the game gets rid of the sound problem and server problem so long as I don’t hit the “refresh” button. Anyone else in this odd predicament? I think Activision will be pumping out some more patches VERY soon. Stupid stupid stupid.

  394. Fiido — November 17, 2008 @ 9:38 am

  395. Andrew — November 17, 2008 @ 9:57 am

    Hi,
    I just finished the game, despite the problems.
    I had both the logon/username problem, the black screen, and a few other things.
    Regarding the logon problem, you need to go to the AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players folder and delete all the folders. Now in that folder, or the one above it, will be some small text file. Delete it also - if you look, it just has two ascii characters. At least, my install had such a file, and deleting it allowed me to set up my own profile.
    As to the black screen, I got it between levels (I’d hear audio but no video) and after quiting/saving. If it happened between levels, then eventually the new level would start normally. As to quitting, alt-tab did the trick. The videos WOULD PLAY on start up of a new level as long as I entered from the main screen.
    I also had the game dump all my saves in the middle of a level. I got some file error, and surprise, after 12 levels, all progress was missing.
    IT DID ALLOW ME TO RESTART that level, which was strange, and when I finished it and saved I had my progress file restored.
    To be honest, this game wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t good either. We’ve played it before. We’ve done the tank thing, and been at the Reichtstag. The Japanese levels were brutal, but they were also too linear. Just be forewarned… I’m not sure the experience is worth the trouble of all these bugs.

    is anyone having problems updating to the 1.1 patch? I have the retail copy of the game and ive re-downloaded and installed the 1.1 patch so I can play multi player but it doesn’t seem to be doing anything. If I install the patch and then try to do it again, it says something like “Patch 1.1 is already detected on your computer” but in the game it says “1.0.8″ or something like that.
    Any ideas??

    re #381- someone! I have a athlon 3200 And I cant start the game either! I have been trying to find someone who knows about the files that contain sse. I am almost 100% sure that they will be sse-1 or 2. Athlon xp is sse only! those files can probably be over written allowing the athlon xp to play the game. I had this same problem with cod4. If you find out let me know! thanks, swag

    Leon in multiplayer go to Filter and make sure Dedicated is turned on then try playing

  401. Kr!T — November 17, 2008 @ 12:30 pm

    I’m using xp and I just got cod5. I can play single player fine but when I go to play co-op and it loads all the way it just stays at the loading screen and also when I try to connect to a multi-player server it says I cant even connect to the online server and all my firewalls are down and such.

  402. storm — November 17, 2008 @ 12:50 pm

    massage to Kr!T
    i think the co-op main sever are down because you cant directly click on them the only way i could play was get invited by my friend

  403. leon — November 17, 2008 @ 1:42 pm

    Fiido,I think im having the same problem that you were having. I can only see ~20 servers and they’re all titled “Download the patch”. I know I have 1.1 installed because when I try to install it again, it says “Detects 1.1 already on this comp” but in the game, the version number is 1.0.872. Turning dedicated on didn’t really do anything. Any further wisdom?

    i can run cod4 great with my sapphire x1650. This is freaking crazy PLZ SWAG if you find the fix please repost to get in touch with me some how. thanks to everyone.

    This is ridiculous. Forked out the cash and now it doesn’t work. None of the solutions helped me. Last time I buy a game of that brand and this one goes straight to the trash.Next time I will download a cracked version just to be sure it actually works and this way get the money back they skimmed of me. Signed, A REALLY PISSED OF CUSTOMER

    I´ve never seen a game THIS bugged before. Holy crap… where is the QA people?

    Thanks XIAOLUNG, I figured that out and started a new download from another rip version on Friday. Looks like the Skullptura rip got a problem. Anyway, if that new rip works properly I´ll tell you guys. Thanks again.

  413. M3mPh1z — November 17, 2008 @ 10:28 pm

    Hey guys

    Thanks for the list it really helped me when I was close to just deleting the game.

    Maybe I can help, I have the downloaded version, and every time I tried joining a co-op game over lan, i got the same CD Key error, even though the GF and I used separate keys.

    I found a fix at http://m0001.gamecopyworld.com/games/pc_call_of_duty_5.shtml Just download the LAN fix for your version, copy the downloaded file into your game directory and launch the game from there. :) hope that helps some1

    A problem I am having is every time I click start single player, it just freezes, same prob on the GF’s PC, and I also sometimes get bluescreen while starting up some LAN games, busy downloading the new patch now to see if that fixes it, but does anyone else have any idea?

    Thanks

    Hi guys,
    I have a problem. I brought cod waw and it doesnt work.
    the problem i have is when its loading the the singleplayer or multiplayer map its stops and the screen turns black.
    i have to restart it because i can do a thing.

    Things i have tried:
    -I updated everything (windows, new directx 9.0c, audio and graphic card.)
    -I tried an older verion of the grapic card.
    -changed all settings in game to lowest.
    -re install the game and patch.
    -deleting other games like cod 4.

    The errors i sometimes read are:
    -Direct3DDevice9:present failed: driver internal error.
    -DirectX Error. (i could read it only in the taskbar)

    If someone has fixed it or knows how to fix this plz let me know.

    Thanks in advance. Greetings,Kyubiz

    I have encountered several problems with COD 5. mainly my computer would freeze about 10-15 minutes into play. reinstalled several times and took every other measure to fix the problem. my computer is definitely capable of running this game so that wasn’t the issue. BUT WHAT FINALLY WORKED FOR ME WAS SIMPLY RETURNING THE GAME FOR A NEW ONE!!!!! installed with no complications(HAD NO COMPLICATIONS WITH FIRST CD) and the game RUNS SMOOTHER THEN EVER! The game is awesome! hopefully this simple fix can help anyone experiencing these complications.

  421. Heed — November 18, 2008 @ 1:16 am

    I have had most of the above problems, and solved some. yet still struggle to merely open the game due to a persistant “Direct X error” (gets to about 15% of loading a map then error occurs). I am amazed at the relentless amount of problems i have faced while simply trying to get this game up and running… For the first time i find myself wanting to buy a console -.-

    thanks for the list of solutions, alot genuinly very useful :) But this is becoming tiresome. I know i have higher than required spec and ive tried every driver update to my knowledge. Soon i’m throwing in the towel on this dire waste of time.

    Hey, I resolved my problems at last with CODWAW and the game now works fine. I have windows xp with a Nvidia 8600GT graphics card. I was getting a black screen, freeze ups, Punkbuster was booting me & could not create a profile.
    The first thing I did was un-install my antivirus/firewall, which was Zone Alarm Internet Security suite. I replaced it with Bitdefender Total Security 2009. Bitdefenfer 2009 has a game mode which I enabled. Then I un-insttalled CODWAW & re-installed it. I have a Linksys router, so for CODWAW I opened ports 28930 to 28960. For Punkbuster I opened port 44301 to 44301. Wish ya luck, I’m going online & kick butt.

  424. Fiido — November 18, 2008 @ 4:56 am

    Guys, I have all the system requirments needed to play the game except the GHz mine is 2.4 and needed is 3.0Ghz will it make a HGUE difference? LIKE will it lag BIG time? or just a little big cuz im lagging horribly… if its nto that then can u please tell me what to do? Thank You!

    SOLUTION!!! for the game freezing when you select a DIFFICULTY level and also when a MISSION ENDS and a new one is about to START–

    Just press ALT+TAB and GIVE IT 2 MINS till your back to your desktop. (It may feel like your whole system has froze and you need to restart, but dont. just press ALT+TAB a few more times if you want till you get back to your desktop LIKE NORMAL.) Then click COD 5 from your task bar and your back into the game again with advancing into the game or into the next mission.

    Enjoy :-)

    Ohh btw.. you can do the same when you launch the game as well for people who get a black screen upon launch. The funda here is that whenever a movie is about to play you get a black screen and you need to ALT+TAB out of the game and get back in.

  434. Tynan — November 18, 2008 @ 10:22 am

    Hey guys..

    Console: PS3

    Ok, when I tried starting up World at War tonight, it would either beep before the intro, or start the intro for a second, then beep. Both just resulted in a black screen and frozen ps3. After reseting multiple times, looking for any missed updates etc, I finally gave up. (It worked earlier this afternoon, perfectly fine).

    Then, going on to my brothers account, it started up perfectly. So, I know this isn’t really the game’s problem, more my profile problem, but it still involves it. So if you guys can help me out, that’s greatly appreaciated :).

    Thanks,

    Tynan

  435. tenjin — November 18, 2008 @ 4:33 pm

    hi guys… i have a similar problem.. i have tried what tom said but to no avail. My problem is that i am running windows XP and when i go into C drive.

    “1: go to C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    2: Delete __CoDWaWmp
    3: Go to players\profiles and delete all the player profiles here (except active.txt) ”

    my computer starts with “C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War”… so i cant even find CoDWaWmp.
    another thing.. i dont even have a players/profile to even put a active.txt …><

    my computer freezes when asked what difficulty i want to choose when playing single.

  436. lili — November 18, 2008 @ 5:17 pm

    hi first of all nice website
    but becuase there is so many post over here … the website lags alot …

    and it was hard for me to wirte a new post ,,,

    back to problem … i have 2 problem …

    one is from last night when i want to enter codWaWmulti .. when ever it says retriving information from server
    ( or what ever it is ) i get crash … and i could not join or be server ,.. so i used this way to temporarly
    bypass this crash

    i dissconnect from internet then i go to game ( no problem ) i connect to my friends server ( using ip )
    then i use alt + tab to connect to internet .. and this way i can go to the game

    or i deleted all my profile so there was nothing for codWawMulti to check … so no problem

    but first way i have to dissconnect the internet every time
    the second way i have to be unamned player with no class to choose

    so if any one know how to fix this problem please tell me .. i know the reason ( CoDWaWMulti is checking
    the cd key on server ) if there is a way to block the checking im sure problem will be sloved

    my second and strange problem is when i want to play co-op with my friends

    when i want to join any one server there is no prob … ( i can join at least 90% of servers )

    but when i want to be the host ( in co-op ) … my friends will face three problems

    one is when i start the game … one or many of them wont pass loading .. and they will be on

    loading untill the game crash for them ( no synchrozing or Ready )

    some of them will be ready but very fast after they get ready … they will go out

    from game or to the menu with strange errors

    and the last problem and very strange one is .. even if there is no problem ( num1 & num 2 )

    when we go to the game … i will lag seriously .. first i thought it must be my internet ..

    but i have a good internet .. and when i saw my frinds is hosting with worst internets .. and

    from same ISP … i thought it should be something else … so i used cg_drawfps 1 to see my fps

    and i saw … my fps is bellow 30 .. .so thats why i lag .. and becuase i lag every body else lag

    i went to nvidia and update my 8800 GT driver .. and i used lower settings … and updated directx

    but still i get low fps every time i host … but if i play single player or … join some one else

    server … i get fps around 150 ( with high settings )

    i used lanfix1 , lanfix2 , crack for hosting .. still same resualt …

    if any one could solve this problem .. i would be very happy …

    thank you

  437. tt — November 18, 2008 @ 5:50 pm

    First,
    Thanks to all that tried there best to help us unlucky ones with problems.

    Unfortunately none have help me XP, ATI, Nforce2 combination that runs every other game I have fine including CoD series up to this release.

    I do not understand the logic having a beta out that logged all of these problems ahead of release and still releases the game suggesting to everyone to become software engineers to change every possible thing in your box, I am pretty sure that most of the problem posters here have no issues with there other game, and the solution to all this is for Activision to say: It was a bad release, hold on guys we will fix it (statement will not happen, hopefully a fix will in due time)

    -Just another irritated game owner.

  440. mcz — November 18, 2008 @ 10:18 pm

    GUYS WTF, I FIXED THE PROBLEM AND THE PROBLEM IS FIXED JUST HAVE A FUCKING LOOK AT THIS

  441. mcz — November 18, 2008 @ 10:20 pm

    ok guys i have the solution to make the singleplayer work

    if you have a problem when you want to click on difficulty and it just pops back the screen, just do this

    go to : C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    and delete everything.
    then you make a folder called profiles; in that you make a folder called your username for example : QWERTY ; in that folder you make a .txt file called active; and in that .txtfile you type again QWERTY, save it.

    again go : C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW
    make a folder called players, in that folder; make a folder called profiles (yes*again) in that folder you only place the .txt file active with your username in it.

    now the trick is, you need to place the active.txt file in every folder in C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW ( i know sounds silly but just do it )

    so you need to have like 2 folders, called players and profiles, and in the folder players there is a folder called profiles again, np, then you just copy the active.txt into all folders.

    when you have done that you probally can choose a acount, or yours, and start the game.

    if you have problems with the missions crashing just do this :

    first of all, you need to play the missions with the console
    i will give you a list of all the level names in singleplayer

    sniper
    see2
    pel2
    pel1b
    pel1a
    pel1
    pby_fly
    patch
    outro
    oki3
    oki2
    ber3b
    ber3
    ber2
    ber1

    ok enable the console in the game, and if you are stuck in a mission, like what happend at mine at mission 7.

    just bring up the console by typing ~ and you type sv_cheats 1, then you type devmap mak ( first level ) or devmap see2 ( mission 8) the problem is that if you type like map or mp_…
    it wont load the sp mission, so you need this shortcuts names of the missions.

    uhm, ye so when you are stuck on a level, just try to find the next mission so you wont miss to much.

    Hello! Im really happy if you know the answer for my problem pls email it to me if you can ;)

    Why i cant install the CoD 5? Always the installation stops ( between 0-80 %) and then whole my computer crashes. It just stops reading the DVD. I checked out that my DVD-station(?) works, and it works fine. Im using Vista 32b,and my computer has enough power to run the game, but somehow i cant install it ?! I bought the game from store so its real, so is my Vista too etc.
    Sorry for the poor english, but i really need help :/

  443. njonn — November 18, 2008 @ 10:53 pm

    Having problems creating a profile?

    1) Navigate to (Vista) C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles\ on your computer. MAKE SURE to enable hidden files and folders to see this .dir

    (Win XP) c:\documents and settings\Username\local settings\application data\activision\codwaw\players\profiles

    2) Create a folder with the name of the profile you wish to use

    3) Delete any other folders with other profile names that you see in the same .dir

    4) Open the file “active”, delete the existing profile name, and enter yours, making sure it’s the same as your named folder and save.

    5) Right-click on the CoDWawmp.exe and select “Desktop (create shortcut)” from the “Send To” menu.

    6) Right click on the new shortcut you just created and go to its properties.

    7) Find the TARGET field and add the following to the END of the existing target, do not DELETE any of the existing tartget!

    +seta com_startupIntroPlayed 0

    Click OK and use this shortcut to run the game.

    In the game drop down console with ~ and type /connect 213.139.163.78

    I am getting an error message on InstallShield Wizard. It pops “This Installer requires a minimum resolution of 800×600 to complete. Please adjust the desktop resolution and restart the installer”, then quits the installer. I have changed my screen resolution to different combination several times (all higher than 800×600), but still no success. I have a ATI 4850 with newest video and audio driver installed. Could anyone help please?

  447. Danny Collins — November 19, 2008 @ 1:31 am

    My wife bought me this for Christmas so I decided to check it out before she wrapped it up. Yep, couldn’t get it to open after installation either. I deleted Treyarch.blk. I disabled Unimodem Half Duplex. I installed Direct X 9 upgrade. I finally downloaded new drivers from Nvidia for my GT8800 - new driver 175.24 - now it’s working but this had taken me two days. All these steps are described on this website. Me? I’m 69 years old and I don’t need this hassle.
    Why do these people turn out such a shoddy release in such a great series? Couldn’t they have checked all this out before release?
    I’m not being patronising but I know how some of you have to scrape money together to buy these games. These people should be ashamed of such shoddy workmanship.
    That said, the game looks good although they’ll never equal CoD4. Keep at it and I hope you’ll all finally get the bloody thing to work.
    PS: I just play in Solo mode because some mature friends of mine have been ambushed and beaten by eight year olds out there…..

    “I really need an answer to this problem, please tell me someone knows what to do. I’ve looked around my own way of trouble shooting and still looking for answers but the installation goes great, I fix game options and the game looks great, then I can’t even start on a single player game . when I go to select difficulty, ex: Veteran, or any other difficulty that select screen disappears without any load and goes back to the previous screen and I have no clue what does this, like it’s no crash or anythingI can’t even begin to deduct what’s wrong. it just sits there, no start no load. goodness. -kevin”

    This is happening to me to…any clue????

    HEYYYY

    For this problem of mine, here how it fixes the starting solo bug,that nothing happens right?…here is:

    1: go to C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW
    2: Delete __CoDWaWmp
    3: Go to players\profiles and delete all the player profiles here
    4: Create a folder with the name you want for your profile.
    5: Create a txt file, name it “active” and write the name of the folder you’ve just created for your profile, put this txt in the profile folder not in the the folder that you just created. ( well in the end you should see your FOLDER next to a new .TXT file named with your USER GAME)

    For VISTA is :C:\Users\YOU\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles

    works fine here!!!!

    I don’t get ANY of these errors, the game won’t start, nothing happens. I don’t have a game to crash from!

  454. Arne — November 19, 2008 @ 5:08 am

    @Danny Collins,
    You are my new hero, some great humor and insight in your post.
    I am 48 my self, and have been playing games for more than 20 years, keeps your reflexes on top :)

    So far I still are among the best on the servers, I only do on-line gaming these days.

    Hardest thing “to take” was when my son start to beat me in some games :)

    Hope to still be playing at 90+

    And,
    Activision please get this sorted now the amount of problem posts on Internet is absolutely ridiculous.

  455. Craig Young — November 19, 2008 @ 6:10 am

    Heads should roll at Activision for releasing a product with this many problems. Did they actually do any testing before they released this product or were they just trying to release to the stores in time for the “Holiday” buying season. There’s going to be a lot more pissed off customers before this is all over!

  456. YeYo — November 19, 2008 @ 6:17 am

    hey guys, i have the problem with the black screen. i have already remove the tayarch.bik but the black screen is already there!!I have install the newest directx and nothing happens, ought you can hear the sound of the intro,etc. in the background.maybe its cause of my graphic card (ati x700 se) that its already updated.

    CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME??????PLEASE!!!!!!!! XD

  457. YeYo — November 19, 2008 @ 6:21 am

    ohh and is it import if you have windows XP(like me) or Vista?????

  458. YeYo — November 19, 2008 @ 6:33 am

  459. zx97 — November 19, 2008 @ 6:59 am

    hi!
    i installed the game to my pc and cracked it. it runs till start menu and i can chose mission and difficulty level but no mission starts after that.

  460. "Hyper Sniper" — November 19, 2008 @ 8:16 am

    When I pick a game from mission select, resume the game or die and respawn in the campaign, the imfamous blackscreen appears, and I got one of the newest PCs ever. I tried Alt tabbing out and it worked a few times, but now the screen remains black with my curso in it, and I can’t hear any gun sounds, and I can’t seem to find the Treyarch. bik file, any other solutions?

  461. lord daftwager — November 19, 2008 @ 9:11 am

    I installed my registered copy and everything (mp/sp) worked fine until I changed my isp yest… there should be no problem with this as i not have 20 mb internet…

    But the multi player wont always let me play…. cant connect to my online account/bad challenge or ip/server authentication failure are among the errors I get…

    Occasionally it lets me connect to servers but im pretty sure a bug has worked its way in somewhere…

    Anyone else with similar problems? And does anyone have suggestions/solutions? My internet and ping etc is fine as it plays everything else online perfectly.

    I hope they release a patch that fixes everyones problems, im really disappointed with activision :(

    COD5(retail), XP SP3, P4 3.2GHz, NVidia 7600, SB Live Value!

    System ran COD4 fine.

    I had the black screen problem. When launched, would go to a black screen and had to wait about 2 minutes for the game to finally start (menu appear). I tried the basic stuff (deleting that video file, etc.). I had tried disabling my SB card, but after doing that COD5 wouldnt start at all (would just flash and then go back to the desktop). I plugged in my USB Plantronics DSP SP500 headset, disabled the SB Live Value! card in device manager and now COD5 starts up fine.

  463. dreago — November 19, 2008 @ 10:03 am

    seriously i have tryed to figure out the whole folders thing and its not working ffs plz help i lost my level in multi player i was level 35 ffs plz help some who can explain it way way way betta to a noob like me

  464. Brian — November 19, 2008 @ 11:33 am

    For those of us with CPUs that don’t support SSE2, I found something where in COD4 you could put in the command
    sys_SSE [0, 1]
    When set to 1 enables Call of Duty 4’s SSE Extension support on SSE CPUs (both Intel and AMD support SSE). I was wondering if there is any configuration file that this code could be added too? Therefore changing the setting without having to have the game started to enter it. OF course this coould be all nullified if this command does not work anyways. Just taking a shot here.

    I also looked for the miles folder to overwrite those files thinking that might solve it but no where to be found very suspicious.Makes me think that they tried to make it not work with SSE 1 only. very weird

  465. nemisi — November 19, 2008 @ 8:27 pm

    i recently got cod5 and it work perfect because i deleted the video files, used the 175.19 nvidia drivers and did the whole profile thing! but now i got a problem because i bought myself a gf 9800gt yesterday and that old 175.19 driver isnt supported by my card before its old! what do i do now ? see my specs below
    CPU: AMD athlon 64 3500+@2.55ghz

    Brian, I have the same issue as you! I have athlon xp 3200! Rad tools are the ones who furnish the miles and bink video. I have e-mailed them of our problem (sse) and where to find the files we need to change, but havent heard back from them yet! Search rad tools and e-mail them also. The more the better! If I find a solution I will post it! Please do the same! Thanks ,Swag.

  467. Jokulhaupz — November 19, 2008 @ 10:39 pm

    I have the same problem as problem #6 addressed in the beginning, multiplayer servers are not showing up in the lobby, and when i refresh it says “waiting for reply from master server” Is there any other solution to fixing that problem?? I downloaded patch 1.1, but I dont know if port fowarding is just for routers or whatnot, but I’m on a government website with no router, any ideas???

  469. Xring — November 20, 2008 @ 12:55 am

    I would just like to say THANKS! for the info provided on this page. I was about to reinstall my entire operating system because I kept getting the “unhandled exeption” and water_droplet messages. I just had to reduce my audio output from 96,000Hz to 44,000Hz and all is well. No apparent reduction in sound quality. gamingnewslink.com FTW!!!

  470. Zor — November 20, 2008 @ 12:55 am

    It is a bug related to user profiles.

    Go to

    \Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles

    or

    \Users\\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles
    (for Vista)

    Create a text file, type the name of your profile and save it as “active.txt” in “profiles” folder. Also, in “profiles” folder, create a new folder named exactly as your profile name.

    E.g. if you want your profile to be called “Lolercoaster”, you should have a folder named

    \Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles\Lolercoast er

    and a file named

    \Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles\active.txt

    which contains the line Lolercoaster in it.

  488. mcz — November 21, 2008 @ 12:01 am

    just create a fucking profile its fucking easy

    and you can play online and singleplayer

    just make a profile stupid fags

  489. Mobster aka Jumpers|XarnaX — November 21, 2008 @ 12:24 am

    Okay, I was having the same problem as others too. COD5 kicks me when I start up multiplayer. It seems to check other accounts. The solution for me I found to play online was this:

    - open config_mp.cfg and enter seta com_startupIntroPlayed “0″,
    to deactivate profile creation permanently

    With this you don’t need to change any active.txt or delete other accounts.

    I have major multiplayer problems…

    When I go to the lobby and try and join a game it just say’s awaiing connection and aawaiting challenge then kicks me out saying “duplicate qports” and other random error messages. If I every get into a game Punkbuster kicks me out for some reason. Some times it works fine… but rarely

  492. DragonRyder — November 21, 2008 @ 3:37 am

    i have updated my video drivers, yet i still keep getting this error:

    the ati2dvag display driver has stopped working normally. save your work and reboot the system to restore full display functionality. the next time you reboot the machine a dialog will be displayed giving you a chance to upload data about this failure to Microsoft.

    and then my whole PC crashes and it tells me No Signal.

    any ideas on why this keeps happening?

    Call of Duty World At War crashing to desktop at launch on winxp fix.

    I am officially declaring myself as a genius! I bought this game on launch day and have not been able to play it until now. My problem was that it would crash to desktop when I launched game. I tried all the fixes on the net such as setting sound to 48khz and disabling unimodem half duplex in device manager etc. Anyways, none of these supposed fixes worked for me and many others. I have tried so many things to get this game working which you would not believe.

    This evening I had a flash of inspiration. I checked dxdiag which showed my sound card as emulated! That can’t be right I thougt, so I went about reserching the net and found the following;

    The solution lay in a very old WinXp problem. Winxp and 2k incorrectly set the drivers to EMULATED. The trouble is, it’s what directsound uses to remember whether it’s hardware or software, and my dxdiag thought I had no hardware buffer.

    Try start-run-dxdiag[enter] and look at the “sound” or “sound1″ tab. If it says the device is EMULATED then this may work for you, it worked for me.

    The only way to fix it is to do a regedit (Start-run “regedit”[enter]
    and search (Ctrl+F) for every instance of the entry “Device Presence”.
    Once there, in each one there should have some or all of the following:

    (Default)
    Emulated
    VxD
    WDM

    Anyways, in most of these in my registry, VxD and WDM were set to 0, and emulated was set to 1. I modified the values so Emulated read 0 and VxD and WDM read as 1. Do this for every entry, by right clicking on the value and editing. Naturally it may be wise to keep a note of original settings on each (some will be 1,0,0 others will be 1,1,1 - was for me anyway) just incase something borks and you need to reset them.

    You will have to re-run DXDIAG (start-run “dxdiag”[enter]) and set the hardware accelleration back to full and test it.

    Basically guys the game now works for me, hooray. I’m sure there are lots of people still struggling because of this exact problem. If so, try the above as a fix and spread the word. Good luck.

    For all those people with the problem with no response after selecting diffculty at new game (by no response I mean it takes you back to solo play screen) just turn your internet connection off (try disconnecting the cable or just turning the internet off, i dunno :D)! It worked for me, but still dunno how to play multiplayer then… Hope it helped… Cheers!

    Yozz76 you are the man!!!!! the checking off the emulation in regedit was the fix! many thanks PROB #2 solved

  499. Nick Kusters — November 21, 2008 @ 10:08 am

    I’ve created a small tool for people with the Select Difficulty problem. It will create a profile for you and allow you to play the game.

    yozz76 you are a genius!!!!!!!

    Did a regedit and changed all instances of “Device Presence”
    which were all
    Emulated = 1
    VxD = 1
    WDM =1
    to
    Emulated = 0
    VxD = 1
    WDM =1
    COD 5 came right up.

    Problem #2 resolution confirmed.

    Hey mcz,
    you must be a brain surgeon with a vocabulary like that.

  502. Joe — November 21, 2008 @ 1:20 pm

    The only way i get past error 3 is to turn off all sound devices and then i get stuck with error 2.

    I did the regedit from 1 to 0 and tried all sorts of other stuff but this game is even worse than ww2ol when it was released

  504. dNAJZdenis — November 21, 2008 @ 2:33 pm

    guys please, take this advice go play cod2, cod4 for like 1 month ,, till cod5 comes on CB etc.. then there will be automatically a new patch whit fixes,
    then it will hopefully fixxed i have that freeze game problem 2 ;) ive tried everything you cant get rid off it.

  505. kai — November 21, 2008 @ 2:43 pm

    why do i load my profile and all then it sais cant connect to internet thingy so i have only 12 servers and ive dowladed patch?

  506. big al — November 21, 2008 @ 2:46 pm

    hey yall i got a problem with the multiplayer.

    i have been able to play multiplayer twice, and ever since that second time, every time i try to join a game from the lobby it gives me this bogus message “server authentication failure”. ive tried plenty different servers and i get teh same BS for every single one.

    please help i need to level up :D

  507. DragonRyder — November 21, 2008 @ 2:53 pm

    i agree with dNAJZdenis — i think they let cod5 out way to soon - they should have done a lot more beta testing on this game before releasing a game with so many issues - and to think I BOUGHT THE GAME :-(

    i did the fix:
    (Default)
    Emulated
    VxD
    WDM

    and still it crashes with the error of:

    the ati2dvag display driver has stopped working normally. save your work and reboot the system to restore full display functionality. the next time you reboot the machine a dialog will be displayed giving you a chance to upload data about this failure to Microsoft.

    and i done lots of digging - and YES i have the LATEST driver for it, still it crashes after 3-5 minutes of playing.

    catch ya on CoD4 :–)

  508. Peter — November 21, 2008 @ 3:54 pm

    for those who can’t play cod 5 when clicking the difficulty… especially with the cracked version ( like the riped from skullptura )
    solution => shut down ur internet - modem or router - or just unplug the cable that is connected to ur pc or laptop =]
    Enjoy playing after the difficulty =]

  509. abbdoc — November 21, 2008 @ 3:56 pm

    I cannot believe that this game has been released in this state, it is bordering on criminal. I have never heard nor seen so many comments about unplayability across such a wide spectrum of users and differing configurations. Shame on you Activision releasing a game that is simply not fit for purpose in its present state. I’m returning this game today to Game stores UK, my faith and confidence in this company is at an all time low.

  510. Greg — November 21, 2008 @ 4:36 pm

    Ok I’m having a freezing problem, however its different to all the others.

    CoD WaW, and several other new games that I have bought recently, such as Need for Speed Undercover have had these strange periodic freezes. None of my older games are doing this.

    When I’m playing CoD online, I can play about 10 mins before it will freeze, and say I’ve lost connection when it finally gets itself together. When I play Need for Speed, it will freeze for about 1 minute, every 5 minutes.

    I’m running them on Vista 64, so I’m wondering if that has something to do with it…

    Any help would be appreciated.

  511. peter — November 21, 2008 @ 4:42 pm

    greg did u update ur latest drivers from video card?
    what card do u have? i’m using vista premium 64 and it’s working well

  512. Dj — November 21, 2008 @ 5:04 pm

    I have concluded that Treyarch should have left the new version to Infinity Ward. This game is horrible. I have had almost every problem listed on this board. The game crashed when loading. The game played in multiplayer but not solo. The game starts with a long black screen. The game has slow movement and choppy sound. I made sure my system exceeded the minimum system requirements for this game. Call of Duty 4 works perfectly on my system. So I have decided not to spend another night wasting hours of my precious time trying to make this crap work. I’m going to sell it on eBay. Thanks all who took the time to try and this work. It’s just not worth. Call of Duty 4 is a better game anyway.

  513. Blashe — November 21, 2008 @ 9:13 pm

    and to think my pc had issues,i though i cauf=ght a virus or something so I ended up reinstalling windows and formating my hard drive.This game will be playable after some time but not now,maeby another couple of months,and the 1.1 patch that i installed it dont do a damn thing.sad thing is they already have hacks going around that are undetectable,I mean last night i played and there was one guy (forgot his name)I’m shooting at him with the rifle 3 to 4 times in a row and he wont drop,then i took thommy and shooted at him closely he still wont drop i mean barely dies after 10 shots,I know about jugernaut perk but this aint that cause i use it ocasionaly and i dont live that long to survive.

  514. Sevenfire — November 21, 2008 @ 9:57 pm

    the black screen is a bink video bug. There is a problem with binkw32.dll in CodWaw’s folder. I hope Activision will fix it soon.

  515. fluxmode — November 21, 2008 @ 11:40 pm

    Changed the Soundcard to a creative……..solved my black screen freeze…and now the Game plays..tf..:-)

    FOR ALL THOSE WITH THE DON’T SEND PROBLEM AND RUNNING XP!! the solution is:

    1) right-click my computer and select properties
    2) select the hardware tab
    3) go on device manager
    4) go to Sound, Video, Game Controllers
    5) now at this part start to disable random things and check if the game works each time. i found out that what was screwing it up was the Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device…. Thanx to ALLAH…THE GAME ROCKS….ENJOY

  520. superskunk — November 22, 2008 @ 3:51 am

    brian and swag I have the same problem - my system has ATHLON XP processor and game developer dont support these, because for them these processors are not stable. This is really annoying, knowing that all my other requirements are well above minimum and I could play COD4 with average settings without any problem (I just had to rename mssmp3.asi to .bak). Now they simply have made the program layout different, maybe just for irritating people!? Anyway fuck the game developers - WE NEED HELP, to remove this minimum spec. requirements for processors. I have been scouting for solutions, but havent found yet any. There should come somekind a fix, because there are a lot of systems running on athlon xp.

    ps. Just bought couple months ago new graphic card for my system. I just dont want to buy a new rig yet.

    @ #519: Thank you Carl, your more then welcome. Maybe you can help me get the word out to people, I have created fixes for games before as you might read in other articles on my site, but I always find it hard to get the solution to people who have the problems. So, if you know of other sites that talks about this problem, feel free to add a link to my site there aswel.

    Ive been to a few forums and there are quite a few people out there with the same prob. My frame rates drop quite a bit out of no where. Sometimes in firefights, and some times when there is nothing going on. (close quarters walking around) And again out of no where the game acts like its in fast forward mode. Frame rates jump back to normal (45-60) yet everything is 2x as fast.

    My system specs are:
    And Athalon 64×2 Dual Core 4400+ 2.3 GhZ OC’d to 2.8Ghz (26 degrees C stable)
    3 Gigs of DDR3 Ram (1800-2400mb available while running the game)
    Nvidia GeForce 9600GT (512 DDR3 ram) Oc’d as well (60 degrees C stable)
    Windows Vista Home (32-bit)

    All drivers are up to date as well as game patches and Directx. (10)
    I can run Crysis on medium-high settings, there should be no reason I cannot run waw. CoD4 runs flawlesly btw.
    I have also tried turning all settings down, disabeling foliage, bullet holes, and turning down the resolution. No effect performance wise.

    Any suggestions/help/fixes would be appreciated.

    I have the 8.11 and a Sapphire HD3850 AGP.

    Call of Duty World at War now takes ages to download a map and get into game.

    I just upgraded from a 6800GT, which loaded me into the game super quick, but with worst graphics.

    I have searched around the net and it appears that people running ATI cards suffer slow map load/joing gae times in COD5 World at War.

    Does anyone else have this problem and or knows of a fix??

    HELP :)

  547. Night_sHadow — November 23, 2008 @ 8:41 am

    I have found a partial fix to the hangup or really long wait to the single-player/co-op mode. Unfortunately, it only works for starting it (which is nice if you just wanna do the zombies).

    Make sure console is enabled first by going to options-game options-enable console = YES

    Go into console (the ~ key by 1)

    type in

    \com_startupintroplayed 1

    then

    \com_introplayed 1

    These disable the opening cinematics. I have not figured out how to bypass the video for each level, but if someone knows how, I’m positive that this will help with hangup between the different levels.

    Realtek drivers don’t allow you to set the audio to a specific bit and Hz. You can, however, change Speaker setup from “desktop stereo speakers” to “quadraphonic speakers.”

    hey i’ve done everything correctly on post #87 and #470.
    single/co-op is fine.
    but when switched to multiplayer it kept asking for online profile so then the default profile i’ve created went back to “Offline”.
    also in the profile folder, everytime i switched to multiplayer that $$$ folder was somehow created by itself.
    but the active profile in active.txt is still the profile that i’ve created. not the $$$.
    i’m using vista32bit.
    help anyone?

    If any of you are using Nvidia cards and getting the black screen, directx errors or direct 3d errors, try downgradig you’re Nvidia drivers from the latest ones to 175.19. This solved all my problems and the game runs smoother too.
    Obviously uninstall your current drivers first.

  563. big al — November 24, 2008 @ 4:12 am

    hey guys i get a problem when i try multiplayer.
    ive downloaded the patch and im running codwaw on vista.
    when i create a new profile, i can play multiplayer for one session. after that, next time i try to join a server from the lobby, it starts loading and then stops and tells me “server authentication failure”. if i create a new profile, i can play on that new one for one session, but then the same BS happens.
    ive tried turning the firewall off but that doesnt seem to do it either.

    any help will be greatly appreciated since i paid 50 freakin bucks for this game that doesnt wanna do what its supposed to.

    thanks in advance

  564. Gugiux — November 24, 2008 @ 4:15 am

    For those who still have an issue with loading the game and receiving “Error during initialization: Unhandled exception caught” - there is a solution. We tried everything but only registry modification helped us. But it works now!!!

    http://www.codhq.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=22646

    “Error The solution lay in a very old WinXp problem. Winxp and 2k incorrectly set the drivers to EMULATED. The trouble is, it’s what directsound uses to remember whether it’s hardware or software, and my dxdiag thought I had no hardware buffer.

    Try start-run-dxdiag[enter] and look at the “sound” or “sound1″ tab. If it says the device is EMULATED then this may work for you, it worked for me.

    The only way to fix it is to do a regedit (Start-run “regedit”[enter]
    and search (Ctrl+F) for every instance of the entry “Device Presence”.
    Once there, in each one there should have some or all of the following:

    (Default)
    Emulated
    VxD
    WDM

    Anyways, in most of these in my registry, VxD and WDM were set to 0, and emulated was set to 1. I modified the values so Emulated read 0 and VxD and WDM read as 1. Do this for every entry, by right clicking on the value and editing. Naturally it may be wise to keep a note of original settings on each (some will be 1,0,0 others will be 1,1,1 - was for me anyway) just incase something borks and you need to reset them.

    You will have to re-run DXDIAG (start-run “dxdiag”[enter]) and set the hardware accelleration back to full and test it.

    Basically guys the game now works for me, hooray. I’m sure there are lots of people still struggling because of this exact problem. If so, try the above as a fix and then go spread the word. Good luck.”

  565. rob — November 24, 2008 @ 5:37 am

    so… if you know whats up then plz help

  572. Greg — November 24, 2008 @ 8:46 pm

    Ok I fixed my problem with the periodic freezes…

    I tried installing the latest video drivers, but that didnt work. So after a lot of playing around and wondering about it, I ended up updating my audio drivers, and re-updating my directx (the games had already updated it).

    So I launched up all my originally frustratingly pausy games, and they worked just fine. :)

    Hope it works for anyone who has the same problems.

    Hi, I’m too lazy to go through all posts, but I’ve got the Reloaded version, and I had the same problem, as many people around - when I selected new game - it put me back to menu. But I’ve got a solution: I’ve just deleted all the files in users\etc…\profiles, copied active.txt and my profile from CoD4, and deleted all files inside the copied profile (or just create an empty folder with then name form active.txt), and it works.

  580. Lu Ema Narfil — November 25, 2008 @ 7:09 am

    Hey guys, I’ve got a unique one for you. I originally started with the profile problem, fixed that with the active.txt solution and it worked first try. So then I played through the game for a few hours but I had to leave so i closed the game. Got home and opened CoD5 and my computer crashed to the blue screen. It’s happened before with other games so no biggie right? Wrong. So I restarted the computer and reopened CoD5 again but it brought the “Create Online Profile” screen again. So I went through the steps of fixing my profile but now it doesn’t work. All my save games are still intact so I moved them into the $$$ folder and it doesn’t work either. I’ve read lots of other posts and I haven’t encountered anyone with my same problem. I’ve spent way too many hours trying to pick up where i left off and I’m about to call it quits. This is getting a little ridiculous. Thanks for any help guys.

  583. N4il3r — November 25, 2008 @ 11:44 am

    Not sure how this fits in… this problem began occuring in COD4 after one of the last patches. And it continues for me in COD5, but MUCH worse…

    When I launch, all is fine until the menu loads. Then, intermittnetly, I will get lock/lag. Cursor becomes choppy, moving once every 20 seconds. Game play is the same. I can alt-tab and the problem is resolved until the next screen needs to load (a menu, or the lobby for example). Then it occurs again.

    Alt-tabing over and over sometimes gets me into a working online game, and then I’m fine. But sometimes all those alt-tabs crashes the game to desktop.

    I’ve tried change graphics settings both in-game and on my nvidia console. I’ve adjusted my audio settings. Drivers are up to date. Running on an AMD FX-60 X2, 4gig memory, 1TB drive SATA RAID0, eVGA 8800 Ultra OC (liquid cooled), Creative X-Fi Pro.

    Coop is even worse. I can barely make that happen. The switch between mp to sp mode is very destructive in terms of stability, on my system at least.

    I also notice CPU resources can be pegged while COD5 is having it’s issues. All resources are grabbed by COD5. And I have all other extraneous processes stripped off.

    I just can’t figure out a troubleshoot beyond what I’ve done, and what has been offered. I’ve seen the game run very well…when it runs I can run higher settings than I did in COD4. But the intermittent lagging/locking prevents any enjoyment at all. Very frustrating.

    Hope this gets fixed soon. Or someone knows of a general fix I can try to resolve issues where alt-tab “clears up the problem”. What leads to the “problem” in the first place? No change occured on my machine when all this began. Very confusing stuff.

    HELP! I want to shoot stuff!

    to post#555

    qport error is just a bug. do a complete refresh on the server lists and if its still coming up…just restart the game. post #547 helps load game faster too. :)

  585. valentino — November 25, 2008 @ 4:36 pm

    when i play cod5 i can play the first 2 missions after the second mission a screen pop ups saying something about directx and is a unfixable problem or something like that any ways to fix this?? and i got the latest directx and i deleted the tyrech. file….

  586. b53 — November 25, 2008 @ 6:18 pm

    New question: I got problem 2 and 3 which I have posted already. But: Will I get the same problem if I buy the game, so it’s something with downloading the game?

  587. Dave Wilson — November 25, 2008 @ 6:23 pm

    No, the retail is the same. I just find it amusing that people download the game for free then moan like f’k regardless if there is a real issue :)

    hi all !
    that list is too long for me to read…

    my problem is :
    when I load the game it works fine but I cant start playing !
    when I choose new game and the first level, I have to choose the diffiulty - I do that and nothing happens.
    the game doesn’t start and doesn’t crash !
    I am still at the menu.

    please help !

  590. Nick Kusters — November 25, 2008 @ 10:52 pm

    @ #589: Look at #499, it has the solution ( http://www.nickkusters.com/articles/88/Call_of_Duty_5_World_at_War_Missing_Default_Profile_Fix.aspx ).

    “playback format must be set at 24 bit 48000Hz (Studio Quality). Simply select this from the dropdown list and apply the settings.”

    How can i do that on windows XP? Trying everything, but no luck.

  592. Rob — November 26, 2008 @ 1:05 am

    If you go to the control panel there should be another sound control option depending on your card, for example if it’s a realtek sound card there will probablly be a realtek audio device option.

  593. loklp — November 26, 2008 @ 1:25 am

    I only got the “original” sound option in the control panel. I can press all “Volume” , “Advanced”, but theres nothing. I have also tried on “Creative’s Surrond Mixer”. I also tried:

    “…go to control panel->sound…->got to hardware tab-> choose on the list with unimodem Half duplex something like that) and click properties and disable it.”

  594. Rob — November 26, 2008 @ 1:32 am

    I take it your game is crashing with directx/3d errors? Are you using an Nvidia gfx card?

  595. loklp — November 26, 2008 @ 1:35 am

    Hmm. I went to “THX Setup Console” And i see this:

    Digital Output Sampling Frequency:
    48 kHz
    96 kHz
    ——————-
    It already was on 48000, which means i dont have to change any, but now i’m just back on square 1…Doh!

  596. loklp — November 26, 2008 @ 1:38 am

    Yeah, i got a nvidia geforce 8500GT.I have just installed newest driver, nvidia physx and directx 9.0c.

  597. Rob — November 26, 2008 @ 1:42 am

    That’s your problem then. I have the 8600gt, didn’t work with latest drivers but works fine with july 175.19 driver.
    Uninstall the nvidia driver you’re using now and install 175.19
    http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_175.19_whql.html
    I hear 178.xx works but haven’t tried it yet myself.

  598. dee — November 26, 2008 @ 3:07 am

    Specs: vista ultimate, 7900gtx 2gb ram running COD 5 nicely BUT then I played MP…basically discovered the active.txt fix but what then what happens is if I close the game and then try to play it again it will not load I get “unhandled exception error”….

    So to fix this I had to go back into appdata/players/profiles and remove all profiles again (they are created everytime you load the game up) to play the game again..

    this is a bug!! as you cannot resume MP with your configuration (i.e. guns you finished with or settings) and I dont think there is a fix…if there is pls tell me?

    thanks..

    I have a HP a6650f with quad core running 64bit vista and the nvidia 8800gtx. I get the directx error and after some digging around on my system noticed that there was no video/graphics RAM allocated, it was 0. Anyone have this problem? I have a 640mb video card. I think this is causing the Directx error unrecoverable. Anyone have any luck with this?

  605. Bill Gates — November 26, 2008 @ 12:27 pm

    Fixed, downloaded the most current drivers from nvidia. aparently vista recognized the nvidia motherboard instead of the card. hope this helped some people.

  606. luis — November 26, 2008 @ 12:35 pm

    new problem this time on xp

    ok downloaded the drivers most people found helpful for nvidia and i seemed to have gone a step further but this time its just a black screen and it stays like that.

    help plz!

  607. Bill Gates — November 26, 2008 @ 1:06 pm

    just hit tab and ctrl to another screen and then back.

  608. Bill Gates — November 26, 2008 @ 1:43 pm

    If you’re stuck at the menu and trying to start a game to be only back at the menu, create the profiles as stated above, thats profiles, plural.

    IMPORTANT part: disable game in the FIREWALL

    when games starts your profile name is at the top right, punk cant get online - exit and play

  620. brian — November 27, 2008 @ 1:13 am

    Collin your CPU is not supported since it has only SSE. I have the same issue and there is no fix yet. I don’t think there will be honestly.

I also updated what I thought was my already updated graphics driver with the following http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_180.48_whql.html I am now playing solo and multi with no problems.

    hi guys. i found a fix for the proflie making issure about how it wont let u create one. it may have been mentioned but im not gunna check through 621 posts :P

    all you have to do is go to where you installed cod5 and create a folder called “profiles”. in that folder create another folder called whatever you want your profile name here. e.g. “insertnamehere”. and i dont know if this is nessacary but in the folder called “profiles” create a notepad document called “active” and in that write your profile name.

    if u need help on this email me at jsjpog@gmail.com

  623. RK — November 27, 2008 @ 4:52 am

    If COD4 ran fine on my pc, should CODWAW run fine also (it isn’t)?

  624. Tanmoy Dutta — November 27, 2008 @ 5:13 am

    Hi All!!

    I m using Vista Ultimate SP1, using 8800GT 512Mb and onboard SoundMax ADI 1998 device, not getting any music or dialogue in the game. the game works fine, I can hear the grenade explosion, gun shooting but no dialogue or in-game-music. Also I observed that only SFX setting in Sound makes a difference, If I increase/decrease the music volume or any other setting, it does not make any difference….I’ve already tried changing the default sound setting to 24Bit 48000MHz, but to no avail. Using the latest Audio Drivers. i remember, I had some issues with Assassins in XP which I resolved by changing the Hardware Acceleration. But there’s no way to do it in Vista (or i don;t know how to do it;) )…..Any help is appreciated.

  625. Roger K — November 27, 2008 @ 11:20 am

    Hi guys,

    Does anyone experiencing choppy sound in each level’s intro video while it is loading up for the next mission? Im using XP SP3, ATI Radeon HD2600 and Creative SB Audigy Value (All certified by directx) and all works fine with any other games like COD 4, Brothers in arms and star wars games. I don’t have problem with the gameplay but just the choppy video in each levels which makes me sick. Always having the dialogue (so called briefing)in the video before each new mission. Hope someone can help. I’m using the cracked file from RELOADED.

    Hey, I was playing COD WAW and got pretty far in. On every loading the sound is breaking but the video seems fine but then after a little while the sound gets really bad and the game freezes. It seems that the game freezes at the same mission load everytime I try and load it. Alt+Tab don’t work but Ctrl+Alt+Delete works but I can’t do anything with it. Solution would be appreciated. Thanks.

  638. Harmonizer — November 28, 2008 @ 11:00 am

    I am playing WaW on a PC platform. My problem is after completing a challenge in operations (i.e. winning a game in domination, team death match, sabotage, etc.) it doesn’t register in the challenges section. For example, I’ve won more than 10 team death matches and I only have 1 victory registered in the challenges section. Why? I’ve tried hardcore…non-hardcore…doesn’t seem to matter. Anyone have suggestions?

  639. Getbent — November 28, 2008 @ 3:52 pm

    For the ppl who have xp and goto load COD WAW but it crashes to the desktop here is the solution.

    The solution lay in a very old WinXp problem. Winxp and 2k incorrectly set the drivers to EMULATED. The trouble is, it’s what directsound uses to remember whether it’s hardware or software, and my dxdiag thought I had no hardware buffer.

    Try start-run-dxdiag[enter] and look at the “sound” or “sound1″ tab. If it says the device is EMULATED then this may work for you, it worked for me.

    The only way to fix it is to do a regedit (Start-run “regedit”[enter]
    and search (Ctrl+F) for every instance of the entry “Device Presence”.
    Once there, in each one there should have some or all of the following:

    (Default)
    Emulated
    VxD
    WDM

    Anyways, in most of these in my registry, VxD and WDM were set to 0, and emulated was set to 1. I modified the values so Emulated read 0 and VxD and WDM read as 1. Do this for every entry, by right clicking on the value and editing. Naturally it may be wise to keep a note of original settings on each (some will be 1,0,0 others will be 1,1,1 - was for me anyway) just incase something borks and you need to reset them.

    You will have to re-run DXDIAG (start-run “dxdiag”[enter]) and set the hardware accelleration back to full and test it.

    Right Click on the default playback device (e.g. Speakers) and click properties. From there select the Advanced tab.
    To eliminate this error the default playback format must be set at 24 bit 48000Hz (Studio Quality). Simply select this from the dropdown list and apply the settings.

    Even if I try to follow this solution, i haven’t the 24 bit option in my audio list, but only 16 bit. How can I do?

  648. voodoo3 — November 29, 2008 @ 6:33 am

    I tried all of the suggested fixes to no avail. I started thinking outside the box. Here’s how I resolved the blank screen on all 4 of my computers. I imaged the drive on the system that it did not work on. This system has an Asrock Sata II motherboard, AMD 3800 X2 CPU, VisionTek 3870, 512 MB, 4 GB’s 3200 memory, 500 MB Pata drive, DX9 XP SP2, ATI CCC 8.11 drivers. I was in the process of building a new rig, so I used this image for the new rig to do some tests. The new rig has a 140w 9950 AMD CPU, 8 GB’s 6400 Memory, VisionTek 4870 1GB, 1 TB Sata drive and AsRock 780 GXE Motherboard. I booted the system and installed the drivers. Removed COD 5 and reinstalled, deleted the Treyarch video clip, and COD 5 started with no issues.

    Here’s the stumper; I then imaged this configuration and used it on the system that did not work and allah! COD 5 works with no issues. I did not change anything other than loading the motherboard drivers. This has worked on 3 other machines. Keep in mind they all have the same AsRock Sata II motherboard and video cards installed.

    Every time i click the icon it says Call Of Duty World At War then starts to play all the sounds but picture (Blank Screen). I deleted the “Treyarch.bik” and then booted it back up, but no luck. I have Windows Xp and have DirectX 9.0C

    YOU ARE MY HERO. I’ve been working on this since MONDAY! Pretty much 24/7 and finally, 5 am Saturday morning, it is fixed because of you! I have repaired the Windows Installation, updated, done anything and everything I could find on the net and wasted a week of my life (a vacation week to boot) trying to fix my son’s installation. My husband’s and mine work fine after a few tweaks to mine, but we could not get my son’s to work. We bougt a new graphics card with shader 4.1 which of course meant we needed a new psu etc. etc. I have been at my wit’s end. You have saved the day while my son still has two days left before he goes back to school to start racking up some stats. It’s fixed just in time for me to go back to work to pay for his game and the unexpected upgrades. Oh, joy. lol.

    I don’t know how to convey my gratitude to you adequately, but hopefully you will read this and know that you made someone’s day, their week, their year! THANK YOU!

    the ati2dvag display driver has stopped working normally. save your work and reboot the system to restore full display functionality. the next time you reboot the machine a dialog will be displayed giving you a chance to upload data about this failure to Microsoft.

    “Direct3DDevice9:Present failed:Ran out of memory”

    why is it when, i can go from the CD Drivers for my ATI Card, all the way up to the most current drivers for my vid card, and yes i installed the absolute latest in directx 9, that my damn PC still crashes cause of this game?

    it is so screwed up now i cant even play normal pissant 3D games on my PC.

    My problem is a little odd. I can play and complete the first two missions (1.Semper Fi & 2.Little Resistance) without a single problem. But every time I try to load the third mission “Hard Landing” , the game crashes to desktop or sometimes my PC just hangs up. Pressing Alt+Tab or Ctrl+Alt+Del makes no difference , so I have press the restart button. Hope someone has the solution.

  677. Tomas — November 30, 2008 @ 4:26 am

    Well,
    After looking into stuff a bit more it seams that both CoD4 and CoD5 uses miles from Rad Tools.

    Miles from Rad Tools do only support SSE2 and AMD Athlon 64 +3200 have SSE2 but AMD Athlon XP +3200 that only have SSE.

    On CoD4 you can rename mssmp3.asi to mssmp3.bak and get the game to work just fine, but punkbuster is not happy about that so multiplayer is out of the question but the game run just fine with ATI19050.

    On CoD5 you do not have a miles folder, it’s compiled into the game so the game will never work on CoD5 as things are now, so in short Activision please make a patch that make it possible to opt out from miles so you get accepted by punkbuster and could get CoD5 going and things would be hunkydory.

    The symptom it behaves is that it fails to launch.

That’s it. I’m working with an Intelcore2 quadcore Q6600, 4GB RAM, Nvidia Geforce 8800 and windows vista 64bit. Does anyone have a solution or even clue of what’s wrong? Thnx people!

  688. Richard Stone — December 1, 2008 @ 4:44 am

    Hello Brian, Swag and Tomas.

    I seem to have the some problem as you and I bet enough other people who want to play world at war. Have been considering just upgrading my system(Nforce2 based) but Call of Duty 4 runs just fine on high settings and the last upgrades I performed and spend money on have also been for a Call of Duty game, where I’d rather spend my money on in the first place! Can play most current next Gen PC games just fine so maybe we can combine forces and make a sub-forum just for this problem to see how many gamers are out there with the same specs who have bought the game or want to but don’t dare to because of the problems. I want to play that new Bond game too but the Demo won’t start either. Have been looking around for solutions myself but not having SSE2 support seems to be the pitfall right now. Have been looking into emulation as well but although there are some software developers who have been working on it and have it working on a certain degree, it will slow things down, if it can fix it in the first place, to such a degree it would look like a picture sideshow :)

    Well I’ll keep looking around myself and hope they(Treyarch, activision)’ll appreciated our passion to get this game running enough to help us out with a fix/workaround.

    Like the shampoo commercial > Because we deserve it ;)

  689. Cheezzhead — December 1, 2008 @ 4:50 am

    Alot of people have had the crash during the “Retrieving Account Information” message (like me), and I found a solution to work around this message. Go to your config file (config_mp.cfg, located in the AppData or Program Files folder) and search for the variable “com_startupintroplayed” with the ctrl-F function. Change the number behind the variable from 1 to 0. Now, when you start the game, the intro video is shown (Activision) and for some reason (don’t ask me why), the game will NOT check for account information.

    As soon as you’ve seen the intro video, the variable com_startupintroplayed will change back to 1. Therefore, whenever you start the game, open up the console (~) and type in ‘com_startupintroplayed” (or choose it from the list), and change the number back to 0.

    Greetzz

    Hello richard! I have been looking also. I had e-mail conversation with John Miles of radtools(as in MILES files) He says he cant help us because the devs at treyarch and activision take his files and recode them for their game! Great guy he is the only one to respond to the sse question! I did go to radtools and download the video player, thought this could be a fix -but wasnt. But the good part of the radtool video player is I could go into the bink video files and play all of the intros! Guess what? the intros play exceptional, but the sound is broken up, which is proof to me that the same problem in cod4(mssmp3.asi miles sound file overwrite fix) exists in cod waw! I have posted in all forums-treyarch-activision-cod4forums-callofduty-etc! NO SUCCESS! will keep looking! There could well be a way to overwrite in certain file or apps. The devs could tell us which ones if they would!Anyhow sad but glad to know i am not alone! swag

I tried changing ports like problem 6 said but it says i need IP addresses and things and now im just all confused help would be very nice and i would really appriciate it. pls and thank you

  695. Jimmy — December 1, 2008 @ 3:00 pm

    Well I couldn’t find my problem on here. I can play the game fine, but what happens is I choose a mission, start the mission, everything works, but once I beat one mission and it’s loading the next the cutscene video is black, I can hear it, and I can see the load bar on the bottom, but the video is black, if I select that mission from the main menu then it plays fine, only when loading from one mission to another, also once I have loaded a mission and I go back to the menu I get the same thing, black screen, but the sound is working, and if I move the mouse I can hear it rolling over the buttons. Everything in my computer is up to date, and I am running Vista Home Premium 64, Geforce 8800 GTS 512, 4GB RAM, all in a laptop (HP HDX9494nr)

  696. Jimmy — December 1, 2008 @ 3:07 pm

    i have a problem on my vista 32-bit all the sound etc is fine i suppose, but whenever i try to run the damn game, it shows an error message saying “CodWaWmp.exe stopped working and the process causing it was APPCRASH or something. So what do i do? Cus, i open the game, and it shows that the tihng is searching for profile and the 3 dots appearing,disappearing maybe 2 times and then the thing crashes. So what do i do to prevent this?

    EVICTION CRASH FIXED on my HP laptop. For those who crash in a level EVICTION on freeze while loading the map , you just have to update the latest graphic card driver. and for those who using laptop on Nvidia , will need to go to this website (http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/drivers)download latest driver on the version of 180.70. After you downloaded the file , make a new folder in c: and name it driver180.70 , then extract the driver file in this new folder . Last step just go to setup file and install the driver , REBOOT and you will able to play Eviction level smoothly. I did it on mine and it run so smooth. Good luck .

    I got WAW on PS3 and i couldnt get past the introudction video with all the war clips on my main account, so i took the game back and got a new version, which still had the same problem. I then made a new account and started again online and all was going fine until the same problem with the introduction video freezing happens every time again on this new account… Anyone know what is going on and if so solutions would be much appreciated, thanks

    can CoD 5 work on an intel celeron d @ 3.2 ghz?

  706. megabits — December 2, 2008 @ 3:42 pm

    You must do this:

    To remedy this problem click:
    Start>Control Panel>Sound

    Right Click on the default playback device (e.g. Speakers) and click properties. From there select the Advanced tab.
    To eliminate this error the default playback format must be set at 24 bit 48000Hz (Studio Quality). Simply select this from the dropdown list and apply the settings.

    Try launching the game now-Everything should run fine.

    are you a retard? try mentining the proceedure for windows xp or say what system you are talking about because there is no such thing as right click speakers or speakers property i ot as far as -control panel -sound next step is non existent on xp!

  707. megabits — December 2, 2008 @ 3:49 pm

    I don’t understand why people just don’t bother look into previous posts about the situation they might face? this is dumb people, wasting your time wishing someone will kindly answer you question heh?

    maybe becuase there is so many useless posts like this one retard!
    can someone answer one day as to how to fix the error codwawmp.exe crash??? all i see is questions about it and no answers!

    well i still cant run the frigging single player. i have done every single fix short of swapping my motherboard with my previous one….

    none of these fixes work, and no others that i have found on the net. this has really pissed me off.

    Bluenight, Rony Pal, Gautam, CODfan, Baku and all that have problem after complete the second level and don’t load the third mission “Hard Landing”:
    1. Install Directx 9.0c
    2. Uninstall physx and DOWNGRADE your video driver to 175.16
    3. Have fun
    I have a Geforce 8600 GT Fatal1ty and i had the same problem than yours. Now, it works fine.

  711. Kulka — December 2, 2008 @ 10:10 pm

    Hey, how to “DOWNGRADE your video driver” to the one u said ?

  712. kalaskingen — December 3, 2008 @ 1:00 am

    There aren’t enaugh people on the support team at activision to help with all these problems, they screwed up this time, errors, blue screens, black screens, and freezing. The problems made this thread to have one of the most post worldwide. If i could return this game I would. So far COD4 is way better than WAW, I havn’t got an error with COD4 but hundreds with WAW. The support team coudn’t even help me.

  715. Greg — December 3, 2008 @ 11:43 am

    For those of you with the Difficulty Screen problem, who cannot find the FOLDERS on your computer that Tom and others have mentioned :

    You have to open My Computer, click Tools, Folder Options, click the View Tab, and then a few check boxes down you will see “Show Hidden / System Files”. Click this. You should now see all the folders :)

    Worked for me on Windows XP.

  716. KC — December 3, 2008 @ 2:51 pm

    for the start up crash, audio rate change may work in vista, I don’t know. But for XP, go disable the “unimodem half-duplex audio device” in device manager.
    For the path of profile, vista is a little different than xp.
    Vista is C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players
    XP is C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players
    When follow the instruction of delete the “__CoDWaWmp” file and setup the profile folder and active file as stated.
    Then most of you should be fine. I am playing now.
    For multiplayer/online profile, I don’t know how to deal with it. If you downloaded the game instead of bought it, then don’t bother with online mode, it probably won’t work until you got a unique CD key (I am surprised how many people don’t know they can’t play online for downloaded game).
    My system is Q6600, 4GB ram, 8600GT, Asus P5K-E with intel P35 chipset mobo.

  717. KC — December 3, 2008 @ 2:54 pm

    PS: I myself didn’t especially update any driver
    I wonder if this problem exists only in download game or in the retail DVD. For download, some trouble is acceptable (you didn’t pay for it). But if the retail DVD is the same, then activision did a bad job in this game.

    Maybe less time behind the computer and paying more attention in class… Your grammar and spelling is pathetic. Even if I could tell you how to fix your issue in 3 words I would not do it because your language annoys me that much.

    Error during initialization:
    Unhandled exception caught

    ————————————————————-
    I FIXED IT!!!!!!!!!!. NOW CALL OF DUTY WAW WORKS WELL!!!!!
    I run Windows XP SP2, no needed sound updates, updated net.framework to 3.5 SP1 but seems no needed, updated graphics driver to 178.24(but no needed too), i read almost all of post here but nothing helped me. Then reading careffully this line in the error console
    “PunkBuster Client: Warning: Corrupted Interface”,
    i “saw the light”. Tried to unistall and install punkbuster, but not worked, my system files of Punkbuster seemed to be ok, so i opened the event viewer (Eventvwr.msc), and in the aplications tab saw that the error was in the pbcl.dll file that is placed in the “PB” folder inside the installation of Call of Duty WaW.
    THE FIX is easy, you only have to COPY the “pbcl.dll” file of CoD4 located in “X:\…\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\pb” and overwrite the same named file in “X:\…\Call of Duty - World at War\pb”. Paste the file in that folder overwritting the older and the game will run well. The game seems to freeze in the first black screen and always loading new maps but let 2-3 minutes to the game and it will run properly (this maybe only happened to me, ‘couse i have an old Pc-AMD64-3000@3500).
    If you haven’t the CoD4 installed to take that file, download it from here:
    http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NEF0PFPK
    Is the file with i fixed the problem, it’s a Rar file without password (and 100% virus free),download it, decompress and paste in “pb” folder of CoD-WaW installation, overwritting the existing one.
    I hope this will help you. I played CoD-WaW 2 times entirely, in “Normal Mode” and “Hardest Mode” (is a very funny game but i think that i prefer CoD4), and i have 0 problems in single player. The on-line mode is just another question (yes, you can play on-line although you downloaded it from PirateBay) because you’re always kicked from all the servers (remember that you altered the Punkbuster files and its normal), i haven’t solution for online mode till now, but i’m working on it.
    I hope you understand my explanations couse im spanish so… sorry for my english…..
    Good Luck!!!

    Anyway thanks heaps your a champ =)

  723. Phabryssius — December 3, 2008 @ 9:23 pm

    Hey Kulka

    All you need to do is install the video driver 175.16. You can get it on Nvidia site (www.nvidia.com), if you have a Geforce.

  724. tomsta — December 3, 2008 @ 11:10 pm

    hi guys ive got a problem ive been able to install cod5 no problem and cracked it how ever i select single player and then new game and select my difficulty level but it wont go any further ive also gone and selected the 1st mission and the same fings happend again when i went to selct the difficulty really want to play this game how do i do it

  725. upbeat — December 4, 2008 @ 12:56 am

    Hello, I have a problem with selecting difficulty, but it has nothing to do with the usual problem (select mission, select difficulty, and you’re back in select mission). My problem is, that the game seems to lock-up / freeze after I select the difficulty. How did they mess it up so bad with this one, cod4 worked fine. Downloading patch 1.1. There was some talk about downgrading nvidia gfx drivers, but the 175.16 wasn’t a correct patch for my card, GeForce 9400GT.

  744. Roflcopter — December 6, 2008 @ 9:21 am

    Bought Call of Duty: World at War (Limited Edition) yesterday, installed it wihtout any errors at all. Game opened up and ran completely normally, played up to the 2 level (Little Resistance) without any issues or errors but once I got halfway through the third level cutscene the voice over skipped and then the whole game closed to desktop giving me the error: DirextX encountered an unrecoverable error. Ive read through over 200 of these comments trying every solution related to this problem with no success.

    Specs:
    2.20 Ghz Intel Dual Core proccessor
    1gb DDR2 ram
    Realtek HD inbuilt sound card
    9500GT Nvidia 512mb vid card

    I have the latest drivers for my video card (180 something) as well as having the November 08 release of DirectX, I tried disabling my sound card, and keep trying each solution while running the game in safe mode to be sure. I haven’t tried changing my sound settings around or installing an older version of the video cards drivers both of which i am attempting right now. If anyone is in the same position as me and has manged to fix it i would REALLY like to know how you did it cos i just want to play!

    I haven’t found a fix for my problem. Whenever I play online for a long period of time, say 2-3 hours, my game will eventually freeze and I’ll have to reset my computer. I can usually tell when it’s about to freeze, because the game will progressively start to stutter. At first it’s just a minor annoyance and barely noticeable, but it will get worse as time goes on - finally resulting in a full blown game freeze + restart.

    This is a relatively new computer, I just bought it in September and it can handle the game fairly easily. The only thing I can think of that may be the problem is my onboard soundcard.

    Call of Duty World at War will not save my progress, it keeps reverting to the beginning of the 3rd level (it saved the first two levels that were achieved during the first playing). Any ideas?

    i got problem 6 PC - No servers showing up in the Call of Duty World at War Multiplayer lobby

    i dont get how to do it

    plz help me

    Após exaustivas tentativas, descobri que o erro appcrach se deve a instalação do jogo ser feita online, assim deve-se desligar o cabo do modem e ficar totalmente offline para instalação, o patch 1.1 , e a troca do CoDWaW pelo crack, no caso de ser pir… Reiniciar PC.
    Após tudo isso ainda offline, inicie o jogo e crie um profile em solo. Pronto é só jogar, pode-se conectar o modem novamente que não vai ter problem.

    Valeu guys e boa sorte.

    Response to 738- I tried everything and the game wouldn’t start until I edited the registry as ‘yozz76′ suggested (thanks to him!): http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=944197&topic=46529976&page=5.
    Warning- backup your registry. Editing it can be very bad and dangerous!

    “The solution lay in a very old WinXp problem. Winxp and 2k incorrectly set the drivers to EMULATED. The trouble is, it’s what directsound uses to remember whether it’s hardware or software, and my dxdiag thought I had no hardware buffer.

    Try start-run-dxdiag[enter] and look at the “sound” or “sound1″ tab. If it says the device is EMULATED then this may work for you, it worked for me.

    The only way to fix it is to do a regedit (Start-run “regedit”[enter]
    and search (Ctrl+F) for EVERY instance of the entry “Device Presence”.
    Once there, in each one there should have some or all of the following:

    (Default)
    Emulated
    VxD
    WDM

    Anyways, in most of these in my registry, VxD and WDM were set to 0, and emulated was set to 1. I modified the values so Emulated read 0 and VxD and WDM read as 1. Do this for every entry, by right clicking on the value and editing. Naturally it may be wise to keep a note of original settings on each (some will be 1,0,0 others will be 1,1,1 - was for me anyway) just incase something borks and you need to reset them.

    You will have to re-run DXDIAG (start-run “dxdiag”[enter]) and set the hardware accelleration back to full and test it.”

    I can now start the game. I can also start trying to work around the rest of the bugs as they come along….

    Call of Duty World at War, asks not to be operated behind a router. If a router must be used then it asks to enable port forwarding for ports 28930 - 28960. To learn how to enable port forwarding, check out this site:

    When i want to enter the game … it throws me out and shows me the icon Send error report or don’t send… But i don’t know what’s the problem… what should i do that i can play??

  753. Suzanne — December 7, 2008 @ 11:37 pm

    In MP and on the Pc:
    Game crashes suddenly when changing maps on a server and one time when leaving the game itself. Moreover, not only the game crashes, whole windows crashes with it. A very unreadable blue screen with white font is shown just prior the crash of Windows and before Windows restarts itself. When getting back on MP I noticed that there are no servers in my Favorite list any longer. Wanting to add one of the servers to this list gives me the “server name is empty” error”. Don’t know what it means, but all i know is that i saw the name of the server, the server worked fine and it was in my favorite list before.

    I’m major in ranking so you can tell that this problem only occurred recently. Before the game worked perfectly (only sometimes froze when my antivirus thought it was fun to update its data.

  754. KOMAP — December 8, 2008 @ 1:52 am

    Hi, recently spent over 2 hours to make my CoD WAW work, and i actually succeeded. Using cracked COD5.

    THIS IS A SOLUTION TO ALL CREATE ACCOUNT PROBLEMS !

    using _ instead of slash , forums restrict me for using slashes for folder destinations :S

    1. install the game 1.0

    2. apply the patch 1.1

    3. download latest punk buster , just google for it , and update it.

    4. WINXP : go to this directory - in my case it was -

    C: _ Documents and settings _ USERNAME _ Local Settings _ Application Data _ Activision _ CodWaW _ players _ profiles

    OTHER OS: not sure what are the paths , find em yourselves and continue with 5.

    If you cant find the directories mentioned above , YOU NEED to create them and continue with 5.

    5. DELETE all what is in there.

    6. Create an empty directory named what profile you want to have, my case : KOMAP.

    C: _ Documents and settings _ USERNAME _ Local Settings _ Application Data _ Activision _ CodWaW _ players _ profiles _ KOMAP

    7. Create a TEXT file called Active.txt, in profiles dir.

    C: _ Documents and settings _ USERNAME _ Local Settings _ Application _ Data _ ActivisionCod _ WaW _ players _ profiles _ Active.txt

    Open the text file , and write your profile name inside.

    8. Download X-Fire gaming software , google , download and make it work.

    MAIN KEY to this method , is the X-fire. You can connect to Cracked servers through X-fire straight without even touching the profile Checker.

    9. Now go to http://www.cod5waw.vcr.pl/ for a list of servers , find a server you like , and COPY its IP ORT CTRL+C

    10. Go to your launched X-fire , click 2 computers to the left , select Favourites , Click a “list” button at the bottom to add new server, Select the game = Cod WaW in the list , and CTRL+V your copied IP into it.

    11. Select this new added server , and press PLAY at the bottom. or just Doubleclick it.

    12. There 3 options what will happen next.

    a. 80% You will successfuly connect to the server and play as YOUR PROFILE ! WOOT !

    b. 15 % You will get kicked to main menu , but with message : Cannot connect to online SEVICE, that will NOT set your profile to default. in this case u can just open your CONSOLE and type reconnect to connect to this server again , or just leave the game to try another server

    c. 5 % You will get your usual **** error : you need a profile to play > Cancel > No and it will reset your profile to default $$$. now , you exit the game , go back to

    C: _ Documents and settings _ USERNAME _ Local Settings _ Application Data _ Activision _ CodWaW _ players _ profiles

    delete the $$$ folder, open Active.txt and replace $$$ with your profile name again. Save the document and try other servers.

    Well thats kinda it guys , it works for me , playing for over 2 days , rarely deleting $$$ folders and changing Active.txt. just get X-Fire installed and always connect through it

    KOMAP.

  755. shadower — December 8, 2008 @ 4:03 am

    Did everything (got vista)

  761. KC — December 9, 2008 @ 2:21 am

    finished the game. man, the last three levels are crazy, tons of enemies are shooting at you and throwing grenades. have to carefully plan your move. Unless you are very experienced player, you would probably die many time.
    I do like the background music when go to the upper level of the Reichtag.

  764. UnrealShadow — December 9, 2008 @ 11:11 pm

    Re: 192. (and 185)

    this is just a temporary solution

    go to
    C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\yourProfilename

    and delete the config file (config_mp). it will make the game start with no error. BUT! you will have to do this every time before startup :(

    and also you will have to change your options every time.

    (I hope someone with a real solution soon!)
    (and i am sorry for my poor english)

  765. Martijn — December 10, 2008 @ 5:26 pm

    I fixed the unhandled exception. Remove Vista and do a clean install. After three days trying I did this drastic measure and it was fixed

    NEED HELP

    When trying to run co-op mode instead of the game running it pops up an Internet Explorer web page saying this program cannot display the webpage. any idea why it would do that? If i try Multiplayer it works fine. Have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times now. And it worked fine a week again. running Win XP.

  771. FireGate_13 — December 11, 2008 @ 10:22 am

    WEIRD!!
    THE SAME GAME WITH THE SAME HARDWARE IN VISTA DOES NOT CRASH!!!
    drivers on both XP and VISTA : 180.48
    VISTA : runs without any problem
    XP : directX errors- crashes
    (the only diff I can find is that in vista the audio driver is Nvidia Audio 4.66 while in xp is 4.65)

  772. Tarun — December 11, 2008 @ 11:08 am

    To #766
    IF you are using windows xp, you will find the profiles folder at the following location:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players

    ** Regular search wont get you this path. So you have to manually find it.. ;-)
    Btw I was able to run the game without deleting any profile.
    I just copied the active.txt (with my profile name inside it) everywhere I could possibly do.. Peace!!!!

  773. Tarun — December 11, 2008 @ 11:10 am

    Also To 766, for other profiles, i created active.txt file and put their names inside it.. ;-).. just to make sure that they get loaded right

    Crashing a lot with “PRIV chunk - wav file” errors ?!

    I play on Win XP and only SinglePlayer but I still kept on crashing regularly (like every 5-10 minutes or so).
    I’m not playing Coop or online, so COD5 is blocked via my personal firewall ZoneAlarm. After a lot of testing and experimenting, I found out that I had to set ZoneAlarm in [Game Mode] and since then COD5 no longer crashes !

    Btw: all tips on sound issues did not work for me, and so I kept my original settings as they were…

    I downloaded Call Of Duty 5 from Direct2Drive.com I downloaded and installed the game with no problem. When I went to start the game up, a dll file was missing. I found the dll file and fixed the problem. Now the game starts up, goes to a black screen and a error that reads, “Call of Duty 5: World At War, has ran into a problem and needs to close”. I am running Vista Ultimate 64bit. My specs, I can assure you, are way over the needed to run the game. Any ideas?

  778. FireGate_13 — December 12, 2008 @ 11:07 am

    READ THE SOLUTIONS FIRST!!!

    PROBLEM1:
    “Call of Duty 5: World At War, has ran into a problem and needs to close” when game starts.

    SOLUTION:
    1.DELETE ALL DOWNLOADED PROFILES IN C:\\Documents and Settings\\\\Local Settings\\Application Data\\Activision\\CoDWaW\\players\\profiles\\
    2. KEEP YOUR PROFILE FOLDER AND Active.txt file!! WRITE IN TXT YOUR PROFILE’s FOLDER NAME!
    3. MAKE ACTIVE.txt READ ONLY!!

    Does your game play with just the cut scenes black with sound, or is the whole thing black with sound?

  784. CBowman622 — December 12, 2008 @ 2:53 pm

    :-( Completely Black. Nothin but sound.

  785. Jimmy — December 12, 2008 @ 3:20 pm

    Sorry, you have a different problem then me, all I can suggest is try updating your graphics drivers and remember the game does not support mobile chipsets, so if your using a laptop you have to have discreet graphics

  786. B — December 12, 2008 @ 3:30 pm

  789. Jimmy — December 12, 2008 @ 7:37 pm

    Here’s a fix for some people running vista, by default vista only has direct X 10, go to microsoft and download the direct X 9 redist pack and install it manually. This allows vista to properly run both DX9 and DX10 games, and don’t worry if your running 64 bit, the redist contains both. Good Luck

  790. merflin — December 12, 2008 @ 11:02 pm

    for people with the Water droplet problem in XP, and have the realtek sound drivers but THINK there is no modem isntalled — scratch that — even XP THINKS that..

    You WILL NOT SEE a MODEMS TAB option because even XP knows there is no modem. BUT.. (I dunno if they fixed this yet with a patch — i’m assuming not)

    when you click on phones and modems it still asks you to enter an area code and maybe a prefix. When you do that, then a modems tab magically appears (even though there is no modem present.) There you have the option to remove it.

    God.

    With all of the posts touching on that issue, you could’ve mentioned the fact that you had to solve some puzzle to make the option magically appear to be able to remove it.

  791. merflin — December 12, 2008 @ 11:06 pm

    Hey I just installed COD 5 on my PC and i did the update and i got in and everything worked fine. I had to go to class so i shut the game off and went. When i came back to play when i tried to log in to get on the net to play my computer stays at the downloading account data screen forever longer then the first time. Then it just stops and says im offline. But i can close the game and get on the internet no problem. So i uninstalled and reinstalled and re update and the same thing happened. I can play online once then it dies. Can someone help me. I don’t want to reinstall and lose everything again.

  794. Chris — December 13, 2008 @ 2:27 am

    I have been having the problem with the water droplet thing.

    Ive been searching the last 2-3 days for an answer to my problem. I have found about 5 ways to get it to work and not one of them worked. I have a school computer(Laptop) with the up to date version of XP.

    Does anyone have any other ways to fix this problem.

    I would be so grateful if someone could tell me how to get this game to work.

    1. Follow the steps about the Audio part…setting default playback format to 24 bit 48000Hz (for Windows Vista) and disable Unimodem Half Duplex in Device Manager (for Windows XP)
    2. Install DirectX 9.0c (November 2008)
    3. Install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
    4. Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable or Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable
    5. and the most important, for Nvidia video cards, install Forceware 175.19 driver (if using unsupported Nvidia video cards like GeForce 9500GT, install Forceware 175.31 Beta driver)
    6. Delete all videos in the the Videos folder except for default.bik

    Did you try the original solution of removing the modem from the modems tab if you have a realtek soundcard? If you do, and couldn’t find the modem to remove, check out post # 790 by Merflin.. it helped me.

    It won’t work with CoD:WoW I guess.

    But it works fine with CoD4.

    Directx Problem???????
    When trying to run CoD WaW in co-op mode instead of the game running it pops up an Internet Explorer web page saying this program cannot display the webpage. any idea why it would do that? If i try Multiplayer it works fine. Have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times now. And it worked fine a week again. running Win XP.

    To anyone having the problem of the game shutting down. The error was Call Of Duty World At War has encountered an error with the campaign\coop and needs to close. Then windows tries to find a solution to the problem and then closes. I went back and forth with Activision tech support about this, because I could play the multi-player portion but not the campaign. Turns out it was from having a virtual cd drive. Actually I had 3 of them but the one that was causing the crash was a program called Noteburner. I uninstalled all virtual disks but that was the one that ultimately was causing the trouble.

    “sabi” is my user name u would be having yours.
    there is a hidden file name CODWAW_

    Reverting back to 175.19 did not stop COD5 crashing during loading the 3rd level. BS man, pretty glad I didn’t pay for this really buggy release.

  836. WazzY — December 15, 2008 @ 9:06 pm

    Sometimes when playing COD5 multiplayer, the screen freece for a second or two followed by blue screen, physical memory dump and restart. This happends randomly. After restarting the PC and COD5, it feels like the graphic reacts much slower than before the blue screen.

    Anyone?

  837. Riddic — December 15, 2008 @ 11:19 pm

    @Jedi
    This game doesn’t work on 32-bit AthlonXP CPU’s (SSE2 is required), even considering they handled the previous games COD4 pretty well. All Pentium4’s do support SSE2 however.
    Even the last type of core for 32-bit AthlonXP Thorton/Burton doesn’t support SSE2 instruction.
    COD5 uses the same engine but looks a bit better than COD4. You must change your PC platform to play this game.

    Cheers

    From NVIDIA FORUMS :
    Here it comes the definition of this DX Crash - Black Screen hidden error found on Windows XP machines

    if you have a newer video card Nvidia 9000 series you are not gonna fix this - treyarch or nvidia will have to

    if you use 8000 series cards chances are that the 175.16 or 175.19 Drivers will help and some will actually be resolved

    Here is the lowdown

    Certain Maps in MP - Asylum, Dome and Outskirts and Missions in SP/Co-Op Eviction and there is another that is not playable with out crashing

    this is because the developer that worked on these maps scripted the shaders using architecture on older 6000 - 7000 series cards and is not recognized on the newer cards there is no fix for this at this time

    Now how can a fix be made for this

    Nvidia can create a workaround script in the next driver release or the recommended fix is Treyarch go back to those maps and add a script if(fail)…. then use (script for newer cards) to there shaders models and Directx D3D scripts

    so here it is and all are fairly screwed until Nvidia or Treyarch fix this hopefully soon

  839. blackberret — December 15, 2008 @ 11:28 pm

    Troubleshooting Guide: System (9x)

    Changing desktop resolution (Click here for Vista, XP, 2000, NT)

    Please make sure your desktop is set to 640×480 and High Color (16 bit). Follow the instructions below to check your color palette:
    1) Click on the Start button > Settings > Control Panel.
    2) Double-click on the Display icon.
    3) Click the Settings tab.
    4) Modify the Color Palette to say High Color 16 bit and the Desktop Area to 640 by 480.
    5) Click on the Apply button once the changes have been made and follow the on-screen prompts to finish the process.

    True Color 24/32 bit will cause some games to freeze or not work at all. Not having Windows in the same color depth as the game will force the game to switch the color for you (which can cause problems) or have to perform color re-mapping which slows down the game performance.

    Shutting down all background programs (Click here for Vista, XP, 2000, NT)

    1) Press Ctrl+Alt+Del keys to bring up the Close Program window.
    2) The only programs you need to leave open are Systray and Explorer.
    3) Highlight the program you want to close and click on the End Task button.
    4) Once all the programs are closed EXCEPT Systray and Explorer, you can try the game once again.

    The Windows OS allows you to have lots of different programs running at the same time. Sometimes these programs do not play happily together and create problems. Many modern games are very demanding on your computer. Some game problems can be solved by making sure that the game is the only program on the field. Limiting the number of other applications and programs running can help your system and program performance across the board, not with just games. There are a couple of steps you can take to clear the field.

    Once you complete the steps above then your system is ready to run the game. These steps can clear up a lot of problems you may be experiencing. Your performance may also increase because you have more memory free and more resources are available to the game. Not only can this make games run more smoothly, but applications can benefit from this, as well.

    Virtual Memory (Click here for Vista, XP, 2000, NT)

    1) Right-click on the My Computer icon.
    2) Select Properties.
    3) Click the Performance tab.
    4) Click on the Virtual Memory button.
    5)?Let Windows manage my virtual memory settings.? should be selected.

    Delete all files in the Windows/Temp directory (Click here for Vista, XP, 2000, NT)
    1) Restart your computer.
    2) Double-click the My Computer icon.
    3) Double-click to open the following folders in order: C drive > Windows > Temp.
    4) Select and delete all the files in the Temp folder.
    5) While still in the Windows folder, look for a Temporary Internet Files folder.
    6) Select and delete all the files from this folder also.
    7) Restart the computer.
    8) Empty the Recycle Bin.

    Do a complete ScanDisk - (Click here for Vista, XP, 2000, NT) (even if it’s a new hard drive). This includes scanning the data surfaces and checking the files and folders.
    1) Click on the Start button > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > ScanDisk.
    2) Highlight the C: drive.
    3) In the Type of test box, checkmark Thorough.
    4) Checkmark Automatically fix errors.
    5) Click the Start button.
    6) Let the scan run until finished. A ScanDisk may take awhile depending on the size of the drive and amount used.

    Do a complete Defrag - (Click here for Vista, XP, 2000, NT)
    1) Click on the Start button > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter.
    2) Select the C: drive.
    3) Click the OK button to start. A defragmentation may take awhile depending on the size of the drive and amount used.

    Maybe you have not tried some of this stuff yet!!!
    I’m at work but will try some of this stuff when I get home because my game is still not working. hope it helps someone

    it works fine till the 10th mission, when stoped loading

  857. Sgt. MESHKIS — December 19, 2008 @ 9:06 pm

    It seems that Windowed mode does its job to solve my problem , but dunno how long cause playng only hour with half-hour long so it may freeze again.unfortunately, i have no hacked servers without PB(which kicking me with no reson) to play…I dont sure if i buy a game i will lose these problems or not cause its going me crazy…However , Cod4 was easier to get into multiplayer : many servers , no PB shit, no freezes.I am palying the latest gam - GTA4 so hardware shouldnt be the factor of my problem , isnt it?

  858. Danny — December 19, 2008 @ 10:31 pm

    Motherboard: Asus M2A-VM
    Processor: Amd Athlon 64 3200+
    Video Card: XFX GeForce 9600 gso

    Please notify me.
    I really want to play

  864. mhooper — December 20, 2008 @ 11:45 am

    COD WAW will not load in XP. No sound adjustment works. File deletion did not work. When I try to start it I get the error below, and regardless of my choice the screen goes black, then my desktop appears in 800×600 resolution then back to black then back to normal desktop. Program will/does not load.
    Error code is “Run in Safe Mode?” “It appears COD WAW did not quit properly last time it ran. Do you want to run in safe mode? This is recommended for most people. It will change your system settings but not your controls.”

  865. wade — December 20, 2008 @ 1:02 pm

    hi

    i installed the game with no problems played the first 4 or 5 levels ,when loading the next level i get an an error message saying (could not create direct 3d device) any solutions on how to fix

    thank you

  866. MultiDropper — December 20, 2008 @ 5:53 pm

    Quote, Maani@134

    Nice fix mate, thanks for posting it…

    “1.Install DirectX 9.0c November upgrade.
    2.Downgrade Nvidia Drivers to 175.19 (uninstall the latest one + physX)
    3.Del all videos in /main directory except default.bik”

    The above is a working fix for the black screen problems on my PC. I had tried everything I could think of to get the game to load past the 2nd level, nothing worked.

    It would seem the ONLY way (so far) is to repeat the above steps to the letter and the game should load with no problems, at least it worked for me. The frame rate is a lot smoother too, so I am convinced that the main culprit here is the latest NVidia drivers.

    I have had no problems so far (crossed fingers!) There is no evidence of freezing, no sound problems, nothing, it WORKS!

    Try it and see, you’ve got nothing to lose!

    hi ive been trying to install the 1.4 patch for call of duty 5 on windows vista 32… and after i downloaded it i tryed installing it and is says that it does not recognise any call of duty on my PC so therefore it cannot install the patch!even though ive installed the game already what should i do? help me! PLEASE

  868. Slacker — December 20, 2008 @ 9:11 pm

    Thank YOU!!! MultiDropper!!! I could finally play without any blackscreen at all!!! I’m already on the 6th stage. Thank YOU so much!!! But I still need help on creating an online account. Apparently I don’t have the USER_NAME file right after double clicking Documents and Settings on my Windows Xp32 Service Pack2. Please tell me what to do so i could play online right after finishing the story.

    Thanks Again.

    i have the black screen problem, i can hear the sounds and even when i move my mouse, i can hear the sound of my mouse moving over the different selection things.. i’ve tried both your solutions but they don’t work.. can someone plz help me?

  870. Drifter — December 21, 2008 @ 2:13 am

    Same as #383, tried the downloaded ISO 1st, no joy, then bought the LEGAL copy, all drivers up to date and blah blah. As soon as I select difficulty in single player, it freezes.

    Please Help!!!!!!!!!!! Played COD4 without any hassles.

  871. Preference — December 21, 2008 @ 4:26 am

    Hello there,

    Everytime I load the mission “Hard Landing” my CoD5 crashes, will give me a black screen with only the task bar underneath. On the task bar I see 2 progams then: CoD5 & DirectX error. Problem is I can’t click on that and when I shut down CoD5, the directx error is gone aswell.

  872. MultiDropper — December 21, 2008 @ 6:51 am

    Slacker@868, thnaks for the comment. However the real thanks should be directed to Maani@134, after all he posted the original fix! I just tried it and hey presto it works perfectly well. As for the online account fix, I can’t offer any advice on that as I don’t seem to have that problem. You mentioned service pack 2 however, I have just upgraded my XP to service pack 3, maybe that is the way forward for you?

    Regards

    Upon installation process, reaching somewhere between 90 and 100%, … receive error #1603, something about English file not found in D drive setup or no access!
    Rebooted and attempted the install 3 or 4 times, with no success. The install will not complete and is not in program files. This is for COD 5. had no problems at all with COD 4.
    can anyone help?? I cannot get around the error!

  874. FireGate_13 — December 21, 2008 @ 8:17 am

    Profiles Directory Fix – Application crashes and needs to be closed.
    (this is needed also if you select difficulty and nothing happens)

    Your game starts and a message “Retrieving online accounts …” appears. This ends with a crash and a windows error message.
    Follow the next instructions.
    1. Go to C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles
    *VISTA: this folder is C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles
    * your_username = your windows login name
    *if you can’t find a folder you have to set windows to show hidden folders-files.
    a. Open a windows Explorer
    b. Choose Tools->Folder Options-> Select View Tab
    c. Click Show Hidden Files and Folders and try again.
    2. There you see different named folders and a file called active.txt
    3. Delete ALL folders EXCEPT your profile’s folder and the file active.txt
    *Note: if you don’t have a profile a folder named $$$ will be your profile.
    4. Open active.txt and write in your profile name (same with your folder)
    5. Make active.txt READ-ONLY!
    6. Start the game and repeat the process until the game starts normally.

    DIRECTX ERRORS?
    Direct9 Device ERRORS?
    CRASHES IN MIDDLE OF CAMPAIGN?
    NOT LOADING MAPS AND STOPS IN VIDEOS?

    I suggest everyone having issues contact the BBB and demand that Activision refund the money paid for a game that will not run at all or correctly. Maybe then Activision will come out with patchs. Right now they just do not care

    1) GO TO CONTROL PANEL
    2) OPEN “SOUND AND AUDIO DEVICES”
    3) CLICK ON TAB “HARDWARE”
    4) NOW YOU SEE LIST OF YOUR AUDIO DEVICES. YOU NEED TO DISABLE CRITIC ONE. TO BE EASY, YOU CAN DISABLE ALL EXCEPT YOUR DEFAULT. IN MY CASE IT WAS “UNIMODEM” DEVICE. SO UNIMODEM DEVICE’S PROPERTIES, AND DISABLE IT
    5) NOW IT SHOULD WORK FINE

    I can’t get this bloody CODWaW to run at all it crashes to desktop when I launch, and so far none of the solutions have worked for me, I’m running an XP700 Core2 Duo 2.13Ghz, twin NVidia Geforce 512 mb 7950GX2s and 2Mb Ram, Graphics Drivers are up-to-date,have disabled Modem,have tried shutting everything down with taskmanager which U cannot do in XP SP3, this bullshit you only need systray and explorer is late 1990s computing rubbish, “get latest sound drivers” from Dell.com is also bullshit as they only have the drivers there from 2006! I’ve tried 1 other driver from SigmaTel and they don’t tickle my souncards fancy either. When I install the patch the WaW.exe file goes awol and you can’t play the game!!! We’ve all paid E50 each for this game and this is the shit we get,my games retailer even gave me another disc to try and exactly the same, whats wrong with the world today!!! Can we not gang up on Activision, can someone help please can we tell Activision we’re not happy?

    hey guys!! it’s me again. i have a problem with the online profile creation thingy. i read the fix but i can’t create one. after i found the file for the profile. i deleted everything except for the active txt. opened multiplayer and just canceled on the part where it’s asking to create a profile. then closed the multiplayer, went back there delered the “$$$” profile and left only the active txt. went back a couple of times to the “players” profile, right clicked on it and uncheck the “read-only” attribute. went back to the multiplayer and tried to create a profile and it still does the same thing about asking to create an online profile over and over again. if i didi something wrong Please Tell Me!!! i really want to play online. if nothing is wrong then the game is just messed up.

    please reply back!!!

    My comments about Call of Duty WAW crashes and statement “did not quit properly” are that I tried all that I can think of to try (new nvidia 9500 drivers, new sigmaTel driver - dated 06 - latest at Dell, volume adjustment, removal of game video file, reinstall game and DirectX) and game still crashes at launch. Internet analysis of my system stated that I am well above the minimum specs.

    WOW there is alot of post here on the New and improved Call of Duty world at war well i have the game but didnt quite run into all the Problems that everyone else has yet but have one problem when connecting to some servers i have to type /Reconnect into the console ??? now any fixes for this
    alot of these issues can be caused when downloaded demo and
    did not completely remove all of the files for this game
    and install the new game .
    #1 i uninstalled demo completely
    #2 Download new game alloud punkbuster when download
    #3 had went to my pbsetup to update Games
    this was not allowing servers to show when refreshed for server listings .
    #4 downloaded patch from filefront and ran this to
    #5 add went to xfire to update installed games
    i’ve seen alot of the guys that i game with will try and
    do a download with other programs running in back round
    like xfire .
    which after this will cause problems of corrupted files or game not to load properly.
    I hope some of this will help some of you guys out and i get a chance to see ya on the Battlefield

    When I try to list servers on the Multiplayer game, it counts up (i.e. Getting info for xxxx/4233 servers) but never displays the servers when complete. I have added Port Forwarding on my DLink 655 router for TCP ports 28930-28970 and UDP ports 28960-28970,3074. I am running XP SP3 with the latest NVidia driver. Any ideas as to why I can’t see the servers after it counts them?

  927. SourButter — December 26, 2008 @ 10:43 am

    Okay here I go:
    I open up COD:WAW, which I had the black screen error, I deleted my treyarch.bik. Next, I opened it up again and it does the normal start up with the activision logo but the sound is skipping and it loads the logo very slowly. I set all my video settings to normal, to see how it will run. I click new campaign, click regular and it either freezes in a black screen or takes around 5 minutes to load the cinematic scene where it shows the countries highlighting them in red, sound skipping and all. After that cinematic screen it proceeds to another black screen, freezing my PC, and making me restart to be able to do anything.

    ok well i see alot more problems arrising and last but not the least i see no one has posted any thing about hard drive ??? how much room you have on hard drive clean up unwanted files ,movies,screenshots to free more space up
    and give this site a try to see what you need to run
    http://www.canirunit.com this here will tell if you are missing any
    video card drivers that you would need to run game.
    and some of the console commands that come up when in a server this could be a server issue a typo in a file .
    i have been in servers that i had seen this run for everyone
    but did not kick them .
    but for me so far good i have removed 3 games of my system to make room for this game and unwanted stuff.
    i running a amd dual core 5000 + proocesser 4 gigs of ram and my video card has 1 gig itself

    Hello

    I have a problem with the single play campaign, I am up to the mission Eviction, I’ve played it once before but didn’t finish it because I had to go and do something.

    But everytime I load the mission, it gets about 1/4 through and then doesn’t load anymore, so it sits there for ages without loading.

    So if you can help me, that would be great.

    My msn is deking69@hotmail.com

  957. Danny Collins — December 28, 2008 @ 1:20 am

    There’s an expression in English of flogging a dead horse and I think that is what we’re all doing here. the truth is CoD World at War is a bug-fille disaster. Activision cannot be allowed to turn out such rubbish. I’ve spent many hours trying all the posted solutions and truth to tell they have improved performance somewhat- but I still have a black screen crash at the start of mission 3 and it’s just not bloody good enough.
    No more Activision for me. Why should they produce such rubbish on the back of CoD 4, which works so well on our computers, and why should we spend hours altering our settings - to God knows what consequence - just to try and rectify the manufacturer’s poor presentation? A class action would make the buggers sit up - anyone’s dad a lawyer out there?
    Other than that, my solution is delete treyarch.blk, delete the videos, delete the game, and delete bloody Activision. they don’t deserve our loyalty or our business.

  965. Robert — December 28, 2008 @ 3:10 pm

    Problem: I could randomly get the game to play a full round on MP | SP wouldn’t even start. However when switching to the next map the game would crash to the desktop or throw up a DirectX related error.

    Solution: I had ESET NOD32 as my Antivirus Program. I uninstalled it and I have been gaming the night away. Back to good old AVG for now. Dayum NOD32 I was messing with Drivers all day long.

    I hope this helps any one having a issue if you read down this far…LOL…

  966. Chris k — December 28, 2008 @ 5:27 pm

    Well guys i’m not sure if this problem has been fixed yet but i’d love some help on it if it has.. I have Windows XP.. I just got the damn game and it doesn’t work.

    I installed it fine BUT. when i try to start Sp/cp it shows the Call of Duty World at War then just crashes.. no black screen nothing.. it just crashes.. If i try mp it will load up a lil bit then have a black screen then the “Error during initialization: unhandled exception caught” message pops up.

    So far i’ve tried about 5-6 of the suggestions above and am trying to update my nvidia geforce 7600 gs graphics card .. and after that my sound card hopefully.. but i have a Realtek ™ Sound card which in the “Readme” document it tells you to get the Microsoft Audio Drivers 6.0 which i couldn’t find for the life of me.. If anyones got any ideas throw them my way.

    hi ILOVECOD…

    yeah i think it is probable the graphics card… cos on the box it sais you need a ATI radeon 1600xt or better and you have a ATI radeon x800xt. I think it is that because i am having the same problem but i have a ATI radeon x1200…

    probably the only way to solve it is to bye a new graphics card… :(

    Okay I finally got this thing stable these are all the things I have to do to stop crashes using XP x64, ATI HD 4830 card:

    Use 8.12 drivers
    —————-
    Install catalyst control centre too, 8.10 and probably 8.11 are not good with this game
    If you are installing 8.12 drivers on XP 64 bit then do it as follows (taken from another site)

    1. Download the following:

    DirectX 9.0c Redistributable (November 2008) : http://majorgeeks.com/downloadget.php?id=2924&file=1&evp=13a19092b4f125241930bd833db42de2

    .NET Framework 3.5 Servce Pack 1: http://download.microsoft.com/download/2/0/e/20e90413-712f-438c-988e-fdaa79a8ac3d/dotnetfx35.exe

    2. Start by uninstalling whatever ATi drivers you have. Use the ATI - Software Uninstall Utility in Add/Remove Programs so everything gets removed in one shot. (AVIVO has to be removed separately if you installed it).

    3. Delete the “C:\ATI” folder and the “C:\Program Files (x86)\ATI Technologies” folder

    4. Reboot into Safe Mode and use a Driver Cleaner to clear out all the ATI junk. Reboot normally

    5. Uninstall whatever .NET Framework packages you have installed. (I had both 3.0 and 2.0 installed so I removed them both)

    6. Reboot

    7. Run the DirectX Redistributable (November 2008).

    8. Reboot

    9. Install .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1

    10. Reboot.

    11. Install the Catalyst 8.12 Drivers.

    12. Reboot.

    Audio
    —–
    You may need to do one or more of the following:

    If you have ffdshow installed then add the .exe as an exception

    1. Click Start
    2. Click “All Programs” (or just Programs, depending on the version of Windows, whether they’re using “classic,” etc.)
    3. ffdshow folder
    4. Click “Audio decoder configuration.”
    5. In the left hand pane, click “Info & debug.” or DirectShow control, This is the second entry in the list.
    6. In the right hand pane find a check box labelled “Don’t use ffdshow in:”
    7. Check that box, click edit then Add and browse to CoDWaW.exe. Earlier versions of ffdshow may have a text box underneath, add “CoDWaW.exe” (without the quotes). If there is already something in that box put a semi-colon ( ; ) after what’s already there. Do NOT use spaces.
    8. Finally, click “Ok”

    The following I did not have to do with my external soundcard but some may have to as stated elsewhere:
    Control Panel->Sounds and Audio Devices->under Speaker setting click Advanced->Performance tab and reduce quality to middle notch or studio quality (whichever you OS has)

    If you run more than one audio card you may need to disable one in Device Manager (I have onboard too but I don’t have drivers installed for it anymore). Expand Sound, video and game controllers, right click and choose disable. You can re-enable same way. (COD5 has problems with more than one soundcard!)

    To Play Single Player (Solo)
    —————————-
    Stop, close or disable antivirus protection
    If you run Comodo firewall disconnect from the internet and exit Comodo
    Exit anything in the system tray that may pop up a balloon message while you are playing.
    Do not run Rivatuner, ATI Tray Tools or similar
    Close catalyst control centre (may not be necessary)
    Do not overclock your card (may not be necessary)
    Remove Treyarch.bik from C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War\main\video
    (or wherever you have it installed)
    and move it somewhere else in case you need to put it back
    On load allow movies to finish rather than use click to start, the level will start itself.

    Every level save and quit completely to desktop.

    Whether you quit the game or it crashes before restarting Log out of your Windows user then back in.
    (I found that a crash may not allow you to restart or makes further crashes likely very soon. This possibly works by restarting video and audio drivers)

    Now finally I can play it without 30 crashes per hour! Hope that helps anyone.

  972. backdrapht — December 29, 2008 @ 2:40 am

    I am getting a directx error every time I load the map “Asylum”. “Directx3DDevice9 blah blah blah” I was able to play this map once without a problem. The game seems to crash and give an “initialization” error occasionally during play. (After map load and after I select a team). Reinstalled dicrectx, problem persists. Waiting on activision/treyarch to make a patch, not sure whats taking so long. This problem seems to be very widespread.

    PS3
    My World at War lagged this morning, then after i played a single round, my second round just gave me a pistol and frag, molotov , and a gas bomb. oh yeah… it deleted all of my save data. i am now a level 5 and played 16 minutes total… any answers i’m kinda pissed…

  974. xChadx — December 29, 2008 @ 5:21 am

    Hey.
    I have a great internet connection and when I play my ping is either 500 - 999.
    It doesn’t make sense.
    Also the only servers I see are European.
    I live in the US and I have like German servers and all those but none that are in US.
    How do I fix that?

  975. ruffnek — December 29, 2008 @ 9:38 am

    I am using 8600Gt and tried the 719.16 update solution that was posted and now have no problems. Was having (822) problem of eviction map loading and also the dome, asylum etc problems (838,653 etc).
    Hope this helps others as well.
    Thanks for the tip kluklaxklan.

  976. x7svn — December 29, 2008 @ 10:29 am

    Hi, the problem I am having is it is quitting the server every time I shoot someone and they are about to die. What it says is, “CL_CGameServerCommand : A reliable code was cycled out.” It does that on every server I play and I have tried restarting, reinstalling, and joining different servers. I was wondering if there is any way to fix this problem.

  977. Chris k — December 29, 2008 @ 1:05 pm

    Well Guys i fixed my own problem from 966.. I upgraded all my drivers with a program called Radarsync (download it.. IT WORKS!) Then.. guess what i start and get to the difficulty.. bamn.. freezes.. i force switch users log back in and then the movie starts.. Though i had to do that EVERY TIME for EACH VIDEO.. that worked… But.. being how i am i decided to look for better solution.. I did it for about 2-3 of them .. Then i realised something.. WELL… Who here wants to play the game? Uhh.. i do?..

    Playing CodWaW WITH the videos would be AWESOME!!…but that doesn’t work.. So i realised Playing them Without the videos is better then sitting there on your computer with your hands in your hair about to go crazy that the game you just bought doesn’t work =P!!.. SO this is what i did.. For XP!! sorry vista i dont have you guys covered… Go here:

    C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War\main
    Now.. See that folder called “Video” .. Take that shit.. and move it to your desktop DONT DELETE IT.. There might be a future patch that fixes this problem and you dont want to have to reinstall. just temporarily move the video folder and its contents to your desktop.. And guess what? start up the game.. no video.. just click and your at the Main Menu.. Select a difficulty and your GOOD TO GO!!! And dont worry about the screen going black just wait a bit.. click a few times.. and soon you’ll see a few words “Click to start” After the first 1-2 missions you’ll get used to it…

    SO instead of waiting for fucking activision to fix this problem.. i’ve improvised.. so i can actually PLAY!!

    Cheers guys i hope this works for you!!!

    (I also disabled the Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio device so try that as well)

    ~Chris

    call of duty 5 crashes when it comes to the level named EVICTION. My video card is NVidia 8600 GT. every thing i’ve got is the latest stuff on my comp. i just dont understand why it happens. it says directx encountered an irrecoverable problem. i’ve got the latest version of directx.

  979. Andy — December 29, 2008 @ 5:35 pm

    Ok I am posting this as I spent most of Boxing Day researching my own problem of why COD-World at War would not start.

    I have to admit, my CPU is not up to scratch according to the minimum specs but the rest is fine including the video card which got upgraded last year due to COD 4 as that years Christmas present.

    So. This year I am again at a loss why it will not work and after many hours of research it is because of the modem audio driver. What ???????

    Yes, the answer to my problem is to disable the Unimodem Half Duplex Audio Device. Can you believe that World at War will not run cause the modem audio driver is there. Well for me and thousands of others, that is true.

    So best of luck to everyone. It is a good game, although just an enhancement of number 4, but still very very good. So disable your modem audio driver and enjoy.

    Directx Errors -Fix.
    Crashes/Internal Error Device 9

    System:

    AMD 64 3500
    BFG 8500GT
    ASRock 939VSTADual
    1 GB DDR (400 Mhz)

    Run> Msconfig.exe
    Disable all startup programs.
    Disable all non-Microsoft Services.
    Reboot.

    This should allow you to play solo missions (ie. hardlanding). Ignore the connection errors (Will fix this later in services)

    I Am slowly adding services to find the culprit.
    I suspect the AV in my case, Norton/Symantic to be causing the problem.

    I currently have all the .bik files renamed .bak;
    I have experiecned only 1 crash since this, loading to missions is quick and framerates went up dramatically.

    I may try putting on the newest Nvidia drivers to see what happens.

    Cheers!

  984. Danny Collins — December 30, 2008 @ 1:54 am

    How about this? I attempted to install CoD 5 patch 1(1)5 and noticed that it was installing itself in the old Call of Duty 1 on my C drive. WaW had previously installed on C: Program Files/Activion. When I tried to reroute the patch it said it couldn’t find a valid CoD installation (mine was bought from Amazon)So I removed all CoD games on my computer, reinstalled WaW and tried to install the patch again. This time it refused to be rerouted and said I had no valid CD code installed. It suggested I entered my CD code in the Options on Multiplayer (I’d already entered it on install)- this i did but I’m still told I have no valid WaW on my computer. I can play it up to the start up of Mission 3, when it gose black screen on me but the point is my installation isn’t being recognised by the patch. Could this be a root of some of our problems? I’m sick to death of the bloody thing….

  986. yeo — December 30, 2008 @ 3:09 am

    Dear chris k and those with a nvidia 7600 gs graphics card..

    I have the same graphics card and running windows xp and i can actually run CODWAW.

    I updated the graphic card drivers to 178.24.
    Then i disabled my unimodem device and set the sound acceleration to basic.
    Then i removed the treyarch.bik file.
    Then i went to C:\Documents and settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\Players\Profiles
    and set the active.txt as read-only and while you’re at it type your profile name in the active.txt and in the folder with $$$.

    THERE! you’re good to go. (the other problem i have is that before the videos play the game freezes. to solve it you minimise the game and go back into the game and the video should play)

    oh and i also updated my directx to november 2008…

  987. marcel — December 30, 2008 @ 4:08 am

    I installed the game and cracked but when I start the game I get the message

    CANNOT LOCATE THE DVD-ROM

    PLEASE INSERT THE CORRECT DVD-ROM, SELECT OK AND RESTART APPLICATION.

    can someone help me on this PLEASE!

  988. Chris K — December 30, 2008 @ 4:12 am

    Dear Yeo,

    Yea basically the whole minimizing will fix the video problem but.. You have to run it in window’s mode which i know how to do if i can get the console open but mine will not open in single player = /.. so i’m just playing w/o the videos and it works fine lol.. If anyone can run me through the step by step to get the console open in single player.. i’d be grateful =D!

    Btw if you didn’t read my last post DOWNLOAD RADARSYNC!!! it will update all your drivers and ANYTHING else like msn, trillian and YOUR GAMES! it even updated my old SwKotOR Game !!! Trust me Radarsync will save you a lifetime of searching online for the downloads.. ;)

  989. Tom — December 30, 2008 @ 6:04 am

    Could somebody help me please?

  990. micdoc — December 30, 2008 @ 7:21 am

    Hi ilovecod have radeon X800pro…..I have the same problem as you endless blackscreen …..

  991. Chris (Germany) — December 30, 2008 @ 11:24 am

    I also can play only the first two levels (without any problems!). But when the game loads the third level, it always freeze and show me this damned Direct X error. When i start the dxdiag exe, it always show me the same :”No problems found”. I have Windows XP with the latest sound and video card drivers. Also i have the latest Direct X from november. When i open the taskmanager, i can see that the CoDWaW.exe has always a very high CPU Usage. Sometimes it loads the third level and i can play the game until i reach the plane. Then comes the Direct X error again. So i load the fourth level in the console. I can play 5 minutes till the Direct X error comes again. I have reinstalled the game (with patch), deleted the video folder, set the sound lower and so on. Nothing works. The 175.16 driver does not work for me. Because i have the nvidia 9800 GT. This card is not supported…

    Does anyone of you also have a 9800 GT?. Which driver do you have?

    Please help me. I bought the game. That’s the original DVD!

    I ONLY WANNA PLAY THIS GAME…

    Singleplayer : First 2 level works fine then Direct X error…

    Multiplayer : I can play almost 1 hour til the Direct X error…

    For all of you who have the same problem but an other video card. Try this Omega drivers. That should work for you :

    http://www.omegadrivers.net/omega_drivers.php

    My 9800 GT is not supported…

    SO PLEASE HELP ME!!!

    Directx error fix-Update.
    Although the game was playable in XP with services and startup programs minimized…I still had a few crashes.

    I put my “8500 GT” card in my wife’s Vista machine…Program runs flawlessly.
    The heat “shimmers” off burning vehicles, the grass blows in the wind. Awesome. I even have all the videos.

    Could it be mostly an XP thing?

    It is definitely not the videocard like some posts on other boards have inferred. My wifes cheap ACER system is almost the same specs I was running except I was using XP with an AMD 3500.

    New System specs:
    Vista 32bit
    AMD 64 4000
    1 GB of ram
    BFG 8500GT (newest Nvidia driver)
    Directx 10 installed

  993. ILOVECOD — December 30, 2008 @ 7:07 pm

    GAAAAAAAAAAH! I just wanna play this fucking game :/ LOL Micdoc why did we buy a videocard from x800 series?

  994. Kenny — December 30, 2008 @ 10:06 pm

    Dear Ilovecod and Micdoc,

    Go here:

    C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War\main

    Then find the folder called “Videos” take that and move it to your desktop.. dont delete it.. cuz Activision might eventually get off their asses and fix the video problem.. idk.. The videos work but they just dont load like their sposed to.. So just move it to your desktop and try loadin up the game… You wont have any inbetween clips but at least you can play the missions right?

    Hope this works

    Cheers,
    Chris

Ive updated drivers, ive rolled some back to the standard ones i get with the cards, dx is updated, and soundcard too. I feel like throwin it out the window, but activision just fail at writing games and patches, so does anyone know whats causing cod5 not to load?

    OS: Windows Vista Ultimate x86

    But when i buy new graphic card (Ati Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB and + 2 GB so now i have:

    Graphic Card: Ati Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB

    guys help me please with my CODWAR problem

    Unhandled exception caught

    @werg #1008

    If your complaint is that your load time slowed down look at the timing on your new ram, as well as the timing on the ram on your new video card. More ram doesn’t make the computer faster, especially when you already have 4 gigs for a game that requires half that. But if your old ram had a timing of say 3-5-5-8 and your new ram is 5-8-8-10, then your ram overall will be slower, since all of your ram will slow down to the new ram. The most important number in there is the first number, also caller the CAS Latency, and lower is always better. Hope that explains some.

    Right, well i have a battery of problems here, not sure what the hell the issue is. I bought the game legally and installed it, patched to 1.1 and well, i cant play up to the 3rd mission “Hard Landing” i can only play the first two missions, and have tried multiple things people have said in the posts above. Thats the first problem, the second is when i try to play multiplayer that also crashes right about right away, especially on “Dome” and “Airfield” and “DownFall” and others i can join but not like 2 mins. later it just locks out to the desktop or just goes to frozen black screen. Sometimes when it crashes for multiplayer it says on my taskbar “Direct X crash” or whatever but i can never read it, because its stuck behind the frozen black screen that was Cod: WaW. So i am quite frustrated at the game because if you ask me, this game should not be out and is totally unstable for many people. The only real thing i can do in the game is the first 2 missions and do the Zombie mode with friends but i have played the first 2 WAY too many times.. SO any suggestions/new fixes are welcome in my book, thanks in advance.

    I also can play only the first two levels (without any problems!). But when the game loads the third level, it always freeze and show me this damned Direct X error. When i start the dxdiag exe, it always show me the same :”No problems found”. I have Windows XP with the latest sound and videocard drivers. Also i have the latest Direct X from November. When i open the taskmanager, i can see that the CoDWaW.exe has always a very high CPU Usage. Sometimes it loads the third level and i can play the game until i reach the plane. Then comes the Direct X error again. So i load the fourth level in the console. I can play 5 minutes till the Direct X error comes again. I have reinstalled the game (with patch), deleted the video folder, set the sound lower and so on. Nothing works. The 175.16 driver does not work for me. Because i have the nvidia 9800 GT. This card is not supported…

    Does anyone of you also have a 9800 GT?. Which driver do you have?

    Please help me. I bought the game. That’s the original DVD!

    I ONLY WANNA PLAY THIS GAME…

    Singleplayer : First 2 level works fine then Direct X error…

    Multiplayer : I can play almost 1 hour til the Direct X error…

    For all of you who have the same problem but an other video card. Try this Omega drivers. That should work for you :

    Hi Micdoc I’ve found out that the x800 series doesn’t have pixel sharder 3.0, so that’s why we can’t play the game, a vidoe at youtube also comfirmed this. So the only thing we can do to play the game is buying a new videocard.
    @ Chris K, hehe I’ve tried everything includ moving/deleting the videofolder :) but thnx anyway^^
    @ Mischa, I’m having exactly the same text as you in my localization file :( and I couln’t fix the problem whatever I did, my problem is that I have to buy a new videocard to get this shit work :)

  1015. ILOVECOD — December 31, 2008 @ 7:57 pm

    Hmmm, All those ppl that’s having problems with endless blackscreen with or without the sounds, please check in your localization fil–>should be in your cod5 map. Post your loczlization text here :) maybe we can find something out about the problem together :D

  1016. micdoc — December 31, 2008 @ 10:16 pm

    Sorry Guys

    well i have not been on for a couple of days because of major issues with Call of duty waw it seems that this is one
    Big issue here with more problems than the game is even worth some of the guys here that have major problems i feel for ya well my latest issue well i was doing the rank up
    servers to get rank and good guns well i had 2 levels to go
    and well this game locked my computer up tighter than a
    safe were i could not even access my desktop and i tryed rebooting and nothing so my other option was to clean hard drive doing a total restore of everything i had on system
    at first i had thought that i was going to have to buy
    a new hard drive my solution is to either wait till they get this fixed or take game back and get money back i’m not going to let a game destroy my computer i was so dam close to completing the prestiege levels and it pisses me off that
    i lost everything not only on this game but other games i play
    to me the game is like a virus and eats up all your resources

  1018. Blaise — January 1, 2009 @ 4:01 am

    Hi guys,
    Playing CoDWaW on my PC, running vista sp1. I go onto a specific server and the moment i kill someone the game kicks me out the server and displays the following message:-
    “CL_CGameNeedsServerCommand: A reliable command was cycled out”

    Amy ideas how to fix this?

  1019. Zombeast — January 1, 2009 @ 12:01 pm

    everything works fine. but when i host co-op i get

    “Unable to get our online address information”

    -_-

  1020. Francis — January 1, 2009 @ 12:19 pm

    I tryed to run Call of Duty World at War today.

    I never had problems with COD 4 concernng the sound and such.

    Although when I start it they said I was missing a file name

    iertutil.dll

    I downloaded the file. Ithought everything would be fine until they said

    Ordinal 14 is missing in the dynamic library of iertutil.dll

    Is that normal since I clearly know my PC is up to date and never had problems before? (Please answer back on my email IF POSSIBLE.)

  1022. kongy — January 1, 2009 @ 5:56 pm

    Heyy,
    I bought the game legally.
    I am stuck on problem 4-the black screen bug.
    It is so annoying, as i have tried that alt + tab and back then Esc, that doesn’t work. I have also tried removing treyarch.bik but that doesn’t do anything.
    I also tried changing the sound settings and disabling things like microphones and webcams. but that didn’t work either!
    I have updated the game to patch 1.1 and still nothing!!!
    Out of desperation, I need help.
    Thanks.

    Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5550
    1.83 GHz (yea I know its bad) Ram- 2gb
    I have an ATI Radeon Xpress 1250 graphics card.
    Realtek Sound system.
    32-bit Vista.

    these factors seem to affect other people so I was wondering if anyone knows of anything I can do…

  1023. Julie — January 1, 2009 @ 6:06 pm

    K. I’m having a very frustrating time with COD WaW. When I go to want to switch to Single/CO-OP from Multiplayer, it kicks me out of the game to the desktop. When I double click solo/co-op on my desktop it doesn’t even load up. The strange thing is that I can play on multiplayer. So why is it doing this? Why does it load for multiplayer, but not solo/co-op? the other strange thing is that i played solo 2 days ago and had no problems with it what so ever, nor did i have problems with multiplayer. I’m really confused. Please HELP!!!

  1024. Smash107 — January 1, 2009 @ 7:00 pm

    Hell all. Was having the Solo game locking on me after selecting difficulty and #996 has worked for me. Try moving your video directory to the Desktop. I can play it now !!!

  1025. ILOVECOD — January 1, 2009 @ 7:57 pm

    Hi Kongy, I see that you have an ATI 1250 card, and that’s the reason why you get the blackscreen :) System req for WaW is minimum ATI 1600XT. Please check your localization file in your Cod5 map, think you should get something like Mischa’s post (1004) —>I got the same text in my localization file /me and Mischa’s problem is too low graphic/video cards^^

  1026. DAN! — January 1, 2009 @ 9:59 pm

    julie, (1018) ive got the exact problem, i played it for the first couple of days then cod 5 fucks up.

    ive tried moving files and contacting activision but nothing

  1027. Slacker — January 1, 2009 @ 10:07 pm

    hey guys, i have a new problem(to me), it seems i can’t save anything. every time i tried to save it tells me that i’m low on memory i need to free up at least 5mb of memory. i don’t know y it says that but i have 43gb of free space in my hardrive. i also have a 1mb ram. so i don’t know what’s happenin. i also think it deals when i turned on the enable console. the solo/coop loads up normally but it never saves. everytime i resume game it always starts in the beginning of reichstag. i don’t know what is happening. also i checked the profile at “add or remove programs” and it show it only has around 5 to 5 1/2 gb on it. my cod4 even takes up more memory than the cod5. i didn’t delete anything except for all of the videos except for the default vid. i need help big time. i also need help on creating an online profile. the things that you guys posted doesn’t work for me. i could see my name on the offline part but once i turn on online it does the repetitive asking for creating an online profile. so please help me!!!

    Hey, downgrading my nvidia drivers to 175_16 fixed my issue with getting the directx error. I can now progress to the next level.
    I didn’t do anything but downgrade the nvidia driver.

    found a work around for COD WAW that crashes on multiplayer (problem #5 crashes to deskop) disable voice chat has resolved the issue I was having on any server that has it enabled. I could play any server that was not running it and on a server with it until someone spoke. good luck with all the other issues.
    disable it in mutiplayer options

    Oh hehe sry Mischa thought you had ATI x800, but it was Micdoc :) Hmm can’t see why you can’t run Cod5 then, Nvida 9800GT is a very good videocard so that shouldn’t be the problem, btw did you ever tried to diable the unimodem thingy?

    Hi,

    so far all my problems were solved by reading your great answers (had problems with profiles and the black screen with nothing but audio)

    Now i have a quick question: the game runs but it’s kind of laggy (voices are done but mouth still moving, no smooth moving etc.); will cleaning up some space and/or defragmenting my hard disk help improve this ??

    Thank you for all your help so far!!

  1051. Sarcasism — January 4, 2009 @ 12:48 am

    Louie - 1044 - enter it in explorer, not in internet explorer.

    1 - ctlr + r

    2 - enter “explorer”

    3 - In the long box at the top that tells you were u are near the tool bar, enter that location.

    4 - it will appear invalid if your local folders are hidden.

    5 - in the location posted on this site, the part “yourname” should be replaced with your windows account name.

    hey ILOVECOD, i have a sapphire radeon x300se is that good enough? it runs cod4… and how do i disable unimodem?

  1076. ILOVECOD — January 6, 2009 @ 3:26 am

    Hmmm don’t think that’s good enough Ralph, I’ve a ATI radeon x800xt, cod4 works like a charm, but cod 5 won’t work at all. But try to disable unimodem–>look at my previous post 1045, there’s a discription of how to disable unimodem.
    Hope this helps ya =)

  1078. Lanf — January 6, 2009 @ 3:59 am

    All my problems were gone when i Un-mounted the D loaded cd from diamon tools. And re-installed the actual game it works fine yet there are strong Co-op problems!

  1079. dom barber — January 6, 2009 @ 4:22 am

    hi, my progress on online was deleted, and went back to the start, and then i tried getting back online, and it just says ‘Unable to connect to Activision Matchmaking - error 33′ any help??????????

  1080. Stratos Karageorgiou — January 6, 2009 @ 5:44 am

    The game crashes at launch. My system consists of a Pentium4 3.40GHz, 2GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro Agp 512MB, Sounblaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer, DirectX 10, Windows XP Pro (Service Pack 3). Soundcard and Video card have the latest drivers. I have tried all the solutions provided by activision support site, but still nothing

  1081. Devin — January 6, 2009 @ 10:36 am

    On CODWAW online for cpu i can not get any servers what so ever on my game plus when i find a server it always says code_post_gfx_mp.ff is different from this server and on Nazi Zombie it wont even let me join in the server i press join server and nothing happens please help my problem!!

  1082. fivethreeone — January 6, 2009 @ 4:29 pm

    My problem is that my favorite server only shows up as an ip number with “…” as the ping under source: favorites. I’ve obviously tried refreshing 1000 times, and even rebooted my modem and router as well as my machine a few times. I just used the server yesterday (it’s called “Q” team deathmatch). I don’t understand this problem at all, because i can connect to another local server (seattlebandits). I also tried reinstalling the patch but it gave me the message “you already have the patch installed click ok”…. So I’m majorly bummed I can’t join my favorite server. Please help!

  1083. pillouter — January 6, 2009 @ 4:54 pm

    hi,

    i’ve read all the posts here (and got one of my problems solved, thanks!!) but i still have one left, i can play online only if i make sure that in “C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles” the active profile is set to a folder in which there are no files called “config_mp.cfg” and “mpdata.cfg”. this means that i allways start from scratch: when i play online i have to configure the controls again and all my accomplishments are lost.

    some extra info that could be usefull; i set the active profile by placing in “C:\Users\Philippe Gerin\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles” an textdocument called “active” and in there type only the same word as the mapnam of the profile, so “C:\Users\Philippe Gerin\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles\pillouter” would be the location where the game stores my configs etc. and in “C:\Users\Philippe Gerin\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles” i have the “active” document in which i typed “pillouter”. this works perfectly for singleplayer and it keeps all my stats.

    but is there any way to get the game to run in multiplayer without losing my progress/configurations ?

    please help me with this, you have been great with solving my other problem!!

  1084. filip — January 6, 2009 @ 5:57 pm

    When I start game I get error dont send just like number 5. How to solve this

  1085. Danny Collins — January 6, 2009 @ 7:07 pm

    I think it might help if all posts gave their operating systems as in XP or Vista 32/64.
    CoD5 single player runs only missions 1 and 2 on my desk (XP) computer with stuttering video speech and refuses to pick up mission 3, but will play all on my laptop (Vista 32) with v poor fps. Sound here is excellent.
    However, on the laptop games follow on only and will not restart a mission after Save & Quit except to show a black screen. I can still hear voices though. The key seems to be a Vista installation but that means sacrificing hardware like Lexmark 1100.
    Verdict: Bring back Infinity Ward. Treyarch proved its rubbish quality on CoD3 so why did Activision let it back in? You are the consumers - so use your weight to show these cash-grabbing morons who is boss.

  1086. pillouter — January 6, 2009 @ 7:57 pm

    in addition to post 1083: i have windows hista home premium 32 bit but i don’t think that matters in my case ?

  1087. filip — January 6, 2009 @ 8:02 pm

    Can somebody help me. When I start game it pops me little screen with error: Call of duty 5 has encountered an error and needs to close.
    I have two options: don’t send and send error report.
    I have patch 1.1 and still pops me error. When I not crack game it gives me error that I need to put DVD.
    I’ve played CoD 4 and I want to try CoD 5.

    HELP IS NEEDED! PLEASE

  1088. pillouter — January 6, 2009 @ 8:27 pm

    filip you allready filed that problem, just wait and have some patience

  1089. ={BC}=Poorsoldierboy — January 6, 2009 @ 10:01 pm

    Well guys finally got my rig up and running again well i seen some guys in here having Punkbuster problems in console type /pb_sv_update this will fix punkbuster errors.

    Ok Directx issues before my system taking a hard crash and reinstalling everything i had no problems at all with any game running .

    well after reininstall from 32 bit to 64 bit vista i had installed cod2 and cod4 with no troubles running these games
    i had installed cod5 and ran good for a couple of games then got the directx error now this affected all my games from running or even connecting to any servers or playing single player.

    1st i deleted all directx versions i had on my pc then went to http://www.directx.com and downloaded new directx and then went to http://www.nvidia.com to update video card drivers.

    then i Restarted computer

    then i went and put games in running just singleplayer on all of them and it worked just fine hope this will help out some people with these issues

  1090. Darkness — January 7, 2009 @ 1:56 am

    I am also a Vista user

    same as other’s comments like yoki!

    I installed COD5

    like yoki said that there is no crashes or any warning. but when i tried to play COD5. It only jumps back to the menu every time I want to select a difficulty.So imagine you want to play the first mission and you select any difficulties, then after that you are jumped back to the mission screen like if nothing happened.

    I also stuck here for awhile and have no solution, I wonder if anyone know the reason and have solutions to that.
    Thx for reading my long problem.

  1091. Ampeg01 — January 7, 2009 @ 2:59 am

    Found another work around for the crash to desktop. It seems that my Inspiron was victim to the issue with the sound card / speaker settings. Unfortunately I couldn’t adjust my speaker settings to the 44100 as mentioned in other posts. I went to my device manager and into the system devices. I disabled the system speaker (not the SigmaTel Audio) and started the game. It worked perfectly for the first time since I bought the game several weeks ago.

  1092. ginjO — January 7, 2009 @ 3:09 am

    Hello. I have a problem with playing COD5 online…
    I join to a server and 10 seconds after I’m kicked because an error.

    Thanks

    (sorry my english)

  1096. Bertram — January 7, 2009 @ 9:39 am

    Same problem as swag and others here- can’t get cod5 to run on my AthlonXP 3200. I have a Radeon x1950pro & cod4 ran great with no crashes whatsoever(after the miles file delete “fix”), pi$$es me off that I can’t get this to run…
    Is there any way for us to find out which of the files containes the sse2 instructions, maybe with the help of a program like processXP or something similar-like start the exe and look at whats going on???

  1097. salsberrysteak — January 7, 2009 @ 10:55 am

    for some reason i cant really join nazi zombies either. heres my solution. create a game title it ZOMBIES. Make sure your filters are right. You sould get 4 people within 1 1/2 minutes. if your trying to join a friends server have them send u an invite.

  1098. Pengu1n — January 7, 2009 @ 12:12 pm

    #200 kana007. You will probably never see this, but thank you. I had a software modem I had to remove and then the game started. Now off ot find out why it just keeps going back to Start New Game after I choose difficulty.

  1099. CBowman622 — January 7, 2009 @ 5:33 pm

    Well, i use to have the Black screen while opening. but i upgraded my video card and now it works!

  1100. danny — January 8, 2009 @ 12:41 am

    I Have xp, it just stays on the black screen and will not alt tab back to desktop, leaving me to reinstall my computer My System passes the minim. specs the game requires, any idea?

    oh and i have EVERY driver updated, so yeah…

  1107. Bertram — January 8, 2009 @ 12:05 pm

    swag - thanks, I will do the same if I figure anything out

  1108. filip — January 8, 2009 @ 4:34 pm

    any idea for my problem (1087)? Help is needed!

  1109. ILOVECOD — January 8, 2009 @ 7:40 pm

    >jonathan what graphics card do you have? It’s the #1 reason why ppl are having this endless blackscreen.

  1110. aiwarrior — January 8, 2009 @ 11:00 pm

    Swag and bertram it seems we re all stuck with the same problem. My interpretation is the following:
    Miles is still there but embebeded in a file that’s near impossible for a non hacker to get out, and the miles sound system contains the sse2 instruction.
    If indeed there is no way to make the same trick as COD4 then we’re basically screwed. No emulation is possible because you cant emulate a whole new set of instructions on a pc. That would be similar to being in a virtual machine, wich of course is not game friendly performance wise.

  1111. micdoc — January 8, 2009 @ 11:58 pm

    Hi ILOVECOD, did you do anything with your graphic card ? I am using X800 pro and I have tryed all the solutions …..but nothing I have sound but ….endless black screen .I think its time to upgrade my card.My cpu is a dothan 780ES @ 2900MHz on a ct479 on a mobo asus P4 C800 E Deluxe full modded.
    What about you and others with an ati card like us????

  1112. Shadowed — January 9, 2009 @ 1:13 am

    please guys, i get this:

    PERFORMANCE WARNING: occlusion thread is tracing when client wants to update for 21 frames”

    i am using soundmax and ati 3870gfx card

    the game is unplayeble, i get spikes in my performance, please someone help me!

  1113. Shadowed — January 9, 2009 @ 1:32 am

    when i open my console i get spammed with this:

    “PERFORMANCE WARNING: occlusion thread is tracing when client wants to update for 21 frames”

    i cannot play the game because of it, i reinstalled everything, even did a format, nothing helps, it use to be ok last week, help please!!

  1114. Bertram — January 9, 2009 @ 1:41 am

    swag, airwarrior…
    I looked into the exe with resource hacker, did not find much (I don’t really know what I’m doing anyway…), one line seemed interesting “Windows system performance rating minimum 4.1 recommended 5.3″ -sounds like a vista thing. I tried change the 4.1 to 0.0, made no difference (as I say-I DON”T know what I’m doing). Maybe someone else should have a look…
    I also tried running the game with -sys_sse20 and similar commands I could think of - that did nothing.
    One more interesting thing - In the “zone/english” folder there are two files: sse2.ff & sse2_load.ff (along with 2 sse1 files). I tried to delete one/both, I also tried to “replace” one/both with a “blank” file, still no go..:-(

  1115. filip — January 9, 2009 @ 2:22 am

    Guys, help me! When I click icon it waits few seconds than just pops don’t send error. When I click details it says that error is in temp folder (.txt file). HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND NOTHING ABOUT THIS ERROR ON INTERNET?

  1116. Shadowed — January 9, 2009 @ 4:24 am

    please guys, if anyone knows how to help me or browse google for it (i had no luck), i have ati 3870 and soundmax integrated on my asus motherbord and ingame i get spammed in my console with:

    Occlusion thread is tracing when client wants to update for 20 frames
    Occlusion thread is tracing when client wants to update for 20 frames

    I have JUST Installed new NVIDIA Driver 181.20 AND cod5 WORKS :D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  1121. jericho — January 10, 2009 @ 1:43 am

    Hi all,
    I’ve read all comments and countless other websites about crashing cod5. Nothing helped. COD 5 crashes after a few minutes in multiplayer with unhandled exception error d3d9 blabalbla
    What really drives me crazy is that it didnt crashed on my old mashine (with same graphic card ati hd4800). My new computer has asus p5q mainboard with the freakin realtek onboard sound and vista ultimate 64bit.

    I’ve tried installing win xp 32 on another partition
    (fresh directx, graphiccard driver, latest realtec drivers, dotnet 3.5,….)
    - same shit. I think the problem depends on my new asus mainboard / realtek, because that’s the only thing I’ve changed. Disabling realtek and activating my hardware soundcard instead doesn’t fix the prob.

    Don’t know what to try next …
    cheers

    Peole i have finally got this game to work properly. I was having the black screen at level 3 hard landing and was unable to play dome ,outskirts on multiplayer. Me being not too bright looked at updating my driver but didd’nt realise that my hp 9000 dv laptop running a nvidia 7600 go 512mb was not supported by the 178.13 version. i went to laptopvideo2go looked in the forum section and downloaded the latest 32 bit version from dox’s customized version.This is READY TO GO without the need to use the inf file enhancer. I saved the file and dowloaded driver sweeper (google it) ran that to uninstall the existing driver, installed the new driver in set up rebooted and no more crashes perfect game play at fukin last……

    its been a month since i bought cad:waw but still i cant play a single mission because when i click unto it nothing happens, i’ve tried modifying my hardware acceleration but still no positive improvements. . it doesnt even load a mission . . . i’m an XP user. . please. . for the cod community out there . . please help me solve this problem . . . thanks a lot and God bless!

  1128. cod_addict — January 10, 2009 @ 3:08 pm

    there is nothing wrong with my system for sure because i’ve finished playing call of duty 4: modern warfare which shares the same engine as the WaW

  1129. Danny Collins — January 10, 2009 @ 6:55 pm

    Re my post 1085, I’m convinced most of the problems stem from installations of XP. The game plays well in single player on my Sony Vao laptop VGN FW11E which is installed with Vista Premium. A slow fps was corrected by lowering screen resolution to 800X600. Regarding multiplayer, which I’m not into, both XP and vista registered me online with no problems so I’ve no useful comment to make on that.
    I am now preparing to upgrade my XP desk computer to vista premium. Rather than banging our heads on the wall and howling with frustration, I think that is the answer. Good luck to all. I’m going over the top.

    Solution 44. does work. I was getting the DirectX error: DirectX encounted an unrecoverable erroer. Check the readme for possible solution. Well I can teel you the readme does not help one bit. What you need to do is install the latest Directx (November 2008 release)then change your graphics driver version to 175.16 here is the link. http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_175.16_whql.html

    After I changed my version to 175.16 I could play the eviction mission which is where I kept getting the Direct error message and it freezing. I hope this fixes your problem as it has done for me.

  1137. hedecky — January 11, 2009 @ 4:37 am

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could help me with my problem.

    I just got CoDWaW yesterday for PC. I have windows vista 64 bit ultimate. My game seems to keep crashing when ever i play with anybody else, i haven’t ran into my problem in single player yet. All it does is it closes my game and says “Call Of Duty World At War has stopped working.” Then it tells me to close the program. It is the weirdest thing ever. I just have no clue what to do. I have upgraded my Direct X, my graphic drivers (Nvidia Geforce 8800 GTX), and upgraded my sound drivers (Sound blaster X-Fi Xtremegamer.) I have also ran my virus protection, enabled punkbuster, closed all other processes, played on a LAN server, played on safe mode, downloaded the 1.1 patch (obviously) and thats about it, i cant really think of much else to do other then wait for the 1.2 patch to come out. If anyone has the same problem as me or has any solution to this PLEASE let me know. You can post and let me know on here or you can email me at…

    Whenever i try to join a match in cod, it lets me in a match. But when it says game starts in 5 or so seconds, it just freezes. It maked like a click sound. FUCKING SHITTTYYYY ASS activision should give anyone who bought this a refund!! Congrats Activision on the shitiest game of the year. Fucking fix what you did and make everyone happy you assholes. And maybe next time, MAKE A GAME THAT DOESN’T FREEZES OR WHATEVER THE HELL ELSE.

    ASSHOLES!!!!!!!!!!!

    COD 5 gets struck while loading after the Little resistance mission. My video card driver and Sound card drivers are up to date. I think its a problem of crack… So any one of you have any crack ?

  1141. 4c21 — January 11, 2009 @ 5:29 pm

    The video driver being too new was the prblem for me as well. I installed the latest NVIDIA (178.24) for my 8600GT when playing Far Cry 2, BUT to play COD5 I could only get it to work by installing an *OLD* NVIDIA driver (175.19). I see above that there is a comment that there is now another new driver (181.20) so I’ll give it a go when I can get the game back off my son to see if that works as well as the older driver.

    James, i dont have a problem making a profile… as far as i know because i have never actually got into the game before it always crashes. I have never gotten past the unhandled exception error
    BTW i have the realtek soundcard aswell, i forgot to mention that if that makes any difference

    To play online u dont need to create an online profile.
    Just add servers ip’s in favorites or join direct from xfire.
    Before that make active.txt read only and change the serial from reloaded version.

    i have problem with creating profile

  1153. CODFAN — January 12, 2009 @ 8:15 am

    how do you block the retrieving account information?

    I already did some rules but it still wont work.

    I tried disabling my internet then open the multiplayer exe then enabling it, temporary bypassing the account information login,

    it temporarily works but then it eventually retrieves my account information again and an error unhandled exception caught appears.

    anyone knows how to bypass this retrieving accounts information?

  1154. ninjaPANDA — January 12, 2009 @ 9:18 am

    @Solution 2:
    If that doesn’t work, or you cant follow those instructions properly because a specific option isn’t available, or not there, do the following:
    Go to Sound and Audio Devices Properties>Hardware
    Then find “Unimodem Half-Duplex,” and click on it
    Click properties, and disable the device. It should at least RUN for you, but I am still encountering problems. Like after the first Russian mission (which could be considered “All Ghillied Up’s” cod5 counterpart), when you jump out of the building, into the water, it loads about 45% and crashed :/
    If anybody knows a fix, email me:
    vanherwaardend@yahoo.com

    Thx alot!

    Airwarrior- I have tried everything I can, havent had any luck! Still looking! I have also posted for help on call of duty forum for the location of the file, I do not believe that the devs over there really have any idea where it is. I have talked with John Miles of Radtools, he cant help because they use their own code. He did say there could be a poss. work around but couldnt promise that. The folks(devs.) at call of duty and treyarch have to know where this is at and if it can be overwritten! Believe me I have ben after them since the begining, but have not had any luck with them! Maybe if more of us old athlon users got on the forum and begged long enough, they would at least say here is where it is and this is what needs fixed! Or maybe even forget it you cant do that! But they wont do either! I am disappointed with them at best! I will still keep up with a poss fix and will post if I find! Thanks, Swag.

    and i go to profiles and i delete the $$$ thing then go in game close again cuz it wont make profile and then it comes up again all the time!! wtf help me plz

  1162. CODFAN — January 13, 2009 @ 10:44 am

    @skywalker You have to create a profile. Make a profile and follow instructions on top of page for the fix. That should work on your single player mode.

    In multiplayer, its a different story. Anyone get pass the accounts retrieving information? If you have a fix post it here!

  1163. CODFAN — January 13, 2009 @ 10:51 am

    @brodie

    thats the problem with Vista. It makes the files read-only even if it doesnt have to. Make sure you put your profile name on active.txt for the game to work. This is for singleplayer only.

  1164. brodie351 — January 13, 2009 @ 12:41 pm

    oh ok and im with windows XP

  1165. Yana — January 13, 2009 @ 10:35 pm

    Another potential fix for the game (finding this in the Nvidia forums):

    my name yana from Indonesia soory my english not to good..
    i have this wiil fix u problem…there seems to be a texture loading issue. Have you tried to run the game on the lowest settings? try woth the lowest setting after pass the first mission change with ur best video setting… check th link i gave..

    or this will help, i try to find how to fix my BIAHH…but after i did this 3 new games i already instaled..run nicely includimg COD5

    1. Go to start menu, run, type regedit.
    2. Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management
    3. Find the entry called “PagedPoolSize”
    4. Modify the entry (in hexadecimal) to 10000000 or (in decimal) to 268435456.
    5. Reboot and play

    i did this and my new 3 games run perfectly.. COD5, BIAHH, FARCRY2…

    use the the latest driver n Physx… no need to use the oldest…
    i use (NV 180.48 + Physx 8.10.13..

    Please note that any editing in your registry is done at your own risk!!

    Hope I could help, see you online! ;)

    For people with problems after selecting difficulty level: You either have to create a profile or wait-literally.

    To create profile go to C:\Documents and settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\Players\Profiles
    and type your profile name into the active.txt file and make it read-only. then rename the $$$ folder with the same profile name.

    After doing that then start the game select difficulty and wait. i timed how long i have to wait and it is 2min 20sec.
    Just remember that between each mission you’ll have to wait.

    Then for those people who are playing without the videos but would really like to watch the videos you can!! you’ll need RAD game tools on your computer to view the video files manually. go to radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm to download it. then manually open the video folder and open each .bik file with RAD game tools and watch the video.

    Hope i’ve helped someone out there. ;-)

    ok - we have PS3 console - have had COD5 since 12/08.
    Just TODAY (1/18/09) , relocated router, cable modem, and HARD WIRED using Ethernet cable, thinking it was our wirless connection.
    YET I STILL sit in the lobby waiting to be matched up in a game.
    Also, been playing with friends last couple weeks, only to be kicked off, errors like:
    The Host Connection timed out.
    Game no Longer in Session.
    Waiting for x amount of players…..

    On the system it says number of players: 122,155 !!!! THIS IS PROBABLY WHY - SERVER CAN\’T HANDLE THE VOLUME !

    Have COD3 - WORKS PERFECTLY !
    Have COD4 - WORKS PERFECTLY !
    Can SEARCH the INTERNET - GOOGLE - YOUTUBE, etc. - no problems whatsoever.

    Any suggestions (besides tossing it out the window )

I have heard it is due to high ping, leveling servers, and could be fixed by not using those servers. All of which are not correct fixes for me. This is ridiculous and I’m about to uninstall completely cause the game is ridiculously buggy. Activision and Treyarch need to get their stuff together.

    Profiles Directory Fix – Application crashes and needs to be closed.
    (this is needed also if you select difficulty and nothing happens)

    Your game starts and a message “Retrieving online accounts …” appears. This ends with a crash and a windows error message.
    Follow the next instructions.
    1. Go to C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles
    *VISTA: this folder is C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles
    * your_username = your windows login name
    *if you can’t find a folder you have to set windows to show hidden folders-files.
    a. Open a windows Explorer
    b. Choose Tools->Folder Options-> Select View Tab
    c. Click Show Hidden Files and Folders and try again.
    2. There you see different named folders and a file called active.txt
    3. Delete ALL folders EXCEPT your profile’s folder and the file active.txt
    *Note: if you don’t have a profile a folder named $$$ will be your profile.
    4. Open active.txt and write in your profile name (same with your folder)
    5. Make active.txt READ-ONLY!
    6. Start the game and repeat the process until the game starts normally

    How to Fix:: Call of Duty World at War - “Fasfile for zone… (code 107)” error

    Open up the installation folder and inside the “zone” folder and under the “english” folder lies all the zone files.

    Now Open up your DVD folder (in My Computer right click your DVD and click on “Open”) then navigate to “Setup>Data>zone>english”. So the address in the address bar should be “J:\Setup\Data\zone\english” if your DVD-ROM letter is “J”. You need to copy the needed file from here and paste it in your installation’s “zone” folder as I mentioned previously.

    If you need a fresh and tested .ff files you can download them from my website. The direct link to my post containing all the download links is http://compuparadise.com/blog/featured/how_to_fix_call_of_duty_world_at_war_fasfile_for_zone_code_107_error/

    I hope it helps anyone comming here for help!!!

    I receive a “Disc is unreadable” error message when I try to play multiplayer cooperative or competitive modes. I can, however play single player campaign with no problems, and am able to connect to XBox Live with other games. Any ideas?

    I have a problem with Call of Duty: World at War. When I connect online to cod5 and I join a Server, I can load the map and play just fun without any errors. After I’ve played and I quit the game, then this Unhandled Exception CoD:WaW Console comes up and it has like an click “OK” button thing for telling me the error and I click “OK” and I try to exit out of the CONSOLE but it won’t let me. Can you help me?

    Hey. I was able to run COD 5 perfectly until it crashed during the loading time near the end of the Russian campaign. Now when ever I load up COD 5 it is sooooo slow play. Like slow motion. Then it speeds up fast like everything is in fast motion. I tried to fix it. I reinstalled my Nvida drivers and everything. I got a geforce 9800 GT. :( I ran so smoothly before too.. Now its sucks. :(

  1224. Rogue — January 25, 2009 @ 1:29 pm

    I have downloaded Cod5 and i can get it to connect to the net was wondering if anyone know why, i have tryed the peofile’s sergestion but cant work it out.

    READ THIS IF U NEED HELP WITH #7!!

    If you have already tried the fix this website gives you and it doesnt work, it might be because you didnt use the cd key it came with, i rented mine from the video store and my brothers was working fine using the cd key, but i didnt wanna use same one coz i wanted to vs him, so i got a random cd key off the net and it installs and stuff but multiplayer cant create a profile, so i reinstalled it using the cd key it came with and works fine now

    hello I’m Kim
    When I start the solo and click the “Go Online” Button,
    A window appears, saying “Retreving accounts information…” But then the game just crashes right away, showing me an error message, “Unhandled Exception Caught”
    Is there no way to solve this, please?

  1231. paul — January 27, 2009 @ 8:03 am

    I have exactly the same problem as the last poster progster. I’m trying to download the patch to see if that works. Other than that I have had no joy and would be grateful if someone knows a fix.

  1232. FireGate_13 — January 27, 2009 @ 7:01 pm

    Profiles Directory Fix – Application crashes and needs to be closed.
    (this is needed also if you select difficulty and nothing happens)

    Your game starts and a message “Retrieving online accounts …” appears. This ends with a crash and a windows error message.
    Follow the next instructions.
    1. Go to C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles
    *VISTA: this folder is C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles
    * your_username = your windows login name
    *if you can’t find a folder you have to set windows to show hidden folders-files.
    a. Open a windows Explorer
    b. Choose Tools->Folder Options-> Select View Tab
    c. Click Show Hidden Files and Folders and try again.
    2. There you see different named folders and a file called active.txt
    3. Delete ALL folders EXCEPT your profile’s folder and the file active.txt
    *Note: if you don’t have a profile a folder named $$$ will be your profile.
    4. Open active.txt and write in your profile name (same with your folder)
    5. Make active.txt READ-ONLY!
    6. Start the game and repeat the process until the game starts normally

  1238. Murph — January 29, 2009 @ 1:11 am

    Eviction Crash-

    Yes, I can’t get into Evicion either, what I did do was use the cheats to get to the missions past eviction, so that at least I was able to play the rest of the game on my PC.

    devmap sniper = Vendetta
    “ ber1 = Ring of steel
    “ ber2 = Eviction
    “ ber3 = Heart of the Reich
    “ ber3b = Downfall
    Using the Ber3 will get you past Eviction and just play through the rest of the game. Turn Console on, hit eviction, don’t worry about level of difficulty, just click console and type the cheat in. Hope this helps. I was just glad to get to play the rest, because these other levels are pretty fun.

  1250. kurp669 — January 31, 2009 @ 1:06 am

    Fixing all the black screen bugs :

    Rename the video folder located in main folder to “video1″ (or anything random you want).

    When you run the game, wait a few seconds then press ESC to start it, or get the No intro fix EXE @ gamecopyworld.com.

    Seems like the black screen bug is due to the videos. This fixed it for me.

  1261. TuRRiCaN — February 2, 2009 @ 5:06 am

    I have found another way, i have not seen it on any post so far. So i think i have discovered this one myself. There is a drawback, you either have to have call of duty 4 installed or obtain a binkw32.dll file version “1.8.23.0″. Call of duty 4 uses same video files so i swapped the bink file from cod4 to cod5 and all the videos play. This way you dont have to delete or rename the treyarch file that people keep suggesting to do. Alas they are still long waits after levels but it will work!

  1262. Leonardo Juliette — February 2, 2009 @ 11:04 am

    I have a problem at #2. I’m using Windows Vista Ultimate with 1GB of RAM, 256 MB Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS and a processor of AMD LE 1640 2.6 Ghz. I tought the game will run in this computer specs, but when I try to load it even on safe mode, error message always show. Maybe I have to try the solutions. Thank you, out…

  1263. Leonardo Juliette — February 2, 2009 @ 11:16 am

    God damn it I’m pissed! Maybe you have to update your drivers! And crappy Vista Black edition? Microsoft doesn’t support this one. Maybe you just have a Windows Xp, or Vista but not that shit black edition.

  1268. Leonardo — February 4, 2009 @ 9:08 pm

    No problem with your graphics jem. Just try to update all of your drivers. Don’t use registry booster. I don’t know if COD5 has registry. maybe it was deleted, or something you has changed. Better try to uninstall, and install it again. Out…

  1269. Leonardo — February 4, 2009 @ 9:13 pm

    Problem #2 solved!!! Hahaha! Just try to follow instructions, and read carefully. Zappy 2k9, you’re running in XP. Try to check the minimum requirements. If its LAG, try lowering the resolutions and set it to LOW if your computer is not like THAT POWERFUL. OFF!!!

  1270. Leonardo — February 4, 2009 @ 9:17 pm

    I reinstalled it a couple of time but it still won’t work.
    How do you fix this?

  1277. sam — February 6, 2009 @ 11:27 am

    I played the first 2 missions fine. then on the third one i died at the first attack so i was revived but to a black screen with audio. and ever since then every time i try to play the third mission i get a black screen with audio so i havent been able to advance. Know when i go to the second mission it does that too, Sometimes but always for the third mission. It’s a black screen but the game is still playing. the video’s play fine, but the mission title and screen don’t come up. it doesn’t freeze up or anything. I’ve tried the Alt + Tab thing and the binkw32.dll thing but nothing works. WTF!!?!?!

    Hey Swag and co.
    Has the ‘Athlon XP’ CPU (SSE2) problem been solved yet?
    I can see from the posts over the past three months it doesn’t look like it.
    I have 3 gigs of RAM an Invidia 8th Gen Graphics Card and no money to upgrade; this baby still sings as sweet as it ever did! even on new games such as Fallout 3 and Crysis!
    You would have thought the COD5 1.2 Patch would have sorted this problem out for us; I guess we are going to go unheard and pitied for having such old processors.

    Von, You got it!! I have been looking all over with not any luck at all. I suppose that we are screwed unless one of the computer guru’s figures this out. I dont think we will get any help from activision or treyarch, or call of duty!! Keep your eyes open because it was quite a while before the fix for cod4 came around. They will get bored and want something to do, and maybe they will give some attention to the athlon xp users, because there are still alot of us out here. Will post if I find anything! swag.

    I have a PS3 and for most of the time Call f Duty works fine, it lags a bt but thats to be expected really, but I have played throug the campaign twice now on Veteran, never finishing the game reaching Heart of the Reich at best before it starts deleting my save and refreshing all of y stats. Its really annoying I had 12/13 death cards, 1 more level to do and then i’d be done but this keeps happening! Anybody had the same problem? Anyone have a solution?

    @ Karam
    Man check the previous posts, the answer is there! People already asked this question millions of times.

    @All
    To everyone who’s getting the directx error when loading a mission, I think that the Nvidia Forceware 182.05 beta drivers fixed that problem, it’s working for me at least, I’m no longer stuck with the old 175 drivers.

    Cheers

    I was having the problem where most maps when load around 50% then crash. I tried everything suggested, nothing worked. In the mean time it seems that if I run in 1024×768 i have no problems… I’m gonna test it on all the maps and a few different servers just to make sure though. 1024 is kinda crappy but at least I get my ww2 fix.

    specs:
    XP 32-bit
    amd 5600
    GTX 260
    latest drivers, DX, sound

  1308. Leonardo — February 12, 2009 @ 7:02 pm

    jeremy, if you have nvidia graphics card, update it. just visit nvidia website at http://www.nvidia.com, if you have ati, update it on http://www.ati.com and download latest drivers. directx 9.0c (latest) can be downloaded at microsoft.com. just look for dxdiag on your computer, man. out…

  1309. Leonardo — February 12, 2009 @ 8:49 pm

    oh, and all of the post here that i didn’t read yet, just keep in mind that updating is the best to play this one. and i remember, you don’t have to play online especially on those cracked versions. maybe you have to purchase an original one. i can play cod5waw on my computer with no errors so no problem. just ask in here, and i’ll answer right away. out.

    I have a very strange Problem.
    While Playin CoD WaW Single Player V1.01, the game crashes to desktop after about 10 minutes (sometimes 30 minutes) with a windows “unplug” sound; the HDD (Samsung Spinpoint F1 1000 GB) on a SATA2 Cointroller is unplugged like a USB device. After rebooting the HDD is back again. This is reproprucable, even after reinstalling the whole system.
    This effect occurs only while playing CoD, all the other games run fine.
    I don`t get whats wrong.
    Anyone has an Idea????

  1317. jaffdude — February 14, 2009 @ 7:32 pm

    I tried the profile thing but no effect, still eternal error shit…WTF?

  1321. jruijs — February 15, 2009 @ 3:44 am

    People who have the problem of getting a black screen and still have sound. I have the same problem (=bug) of the COD5 game, but the easy workaround is to look at the sky and move your mouse around a bit. At least this works for me. Somehow, the screen needs some refresh from a different scenery. Awkward but not killing.

    My real problem is that the game freezes after completing the 10th level or so and loading the next level. After rebooting, I have to play the 10th level again, and see it crash again when loading the next level, etc.. I played the 10th level more than 5 times or so and tried all advised solutions mentioned here in between, with no success … (:-<) I will try it once more with the 1.2 patch, but I have little hope …

    Furthermore COD4 works very very well on my system, COD5 works 5x times as slow on the same resolution!! Also the sound during the animations hampers with almost all animations.

    COD5 is a very very poor product compared to COD4!!

  1322. relic25 — February 15, 2009 @ 11:58 am

    Also crashing on “Eviction” load. Unfortunately, I can’t try the suggested fixes using updated video drivers, since I’m using an ATI Radeon 1950xt. I tried installing the latest drivers for it, but nothing has changed.

  1323. Leonardo — February 15, 2009 @ 2:29 pm

    Maybe I have to agree that this product is poor. Or maybe not. Because I can play COD5 WAW without errors or conflict. I am using Windows Vista Ultimate. It requires 2GB of RAM on Vista. I have only 1GB but I can play on it. Even in 1024×768, the motions are fine. The graphics are still clear. Now, if I agree that this game is poor compared to COD4 MW, I don’t have to post any comment anymore.

    Crashing on “Eviction”, what did you do? If an error appears, maybe you have to lower the resolutions. If you are using RealTek HD, just make your sound quality in 48 Khz Studio Quality.

    On Burn Em Up mission, what happened? Did you update your computer?

  1324. Harambasha — February 15, 2009 @ 3:48 pm

    I have done this, downloaded a profile from the internet and replaced my own whit it, including the game saves. Then skipped the mission “Relentless” and started the next one. Voila…it works now and i can play further. Butt can’t complete and play the mission “Relentless”! What a kind of a bug is this? LOL :D

  1325. Neves — February 15, 2009 @ 11:58 pm

    Hi to all,

    I downloaded a RELOADED version of the game, if I BUY a LEGIT cd-key (with no cd/dvd only the key) will I be able to create an online profile ?

    Or is this “bug” related to the Reloaded version and even with a legit key I will NOT be able to create an online profile?

    Anyone who did this can please reply and say if you had any problem ?

  1332. Kiunno — February 17, 2009 @ 9:49 am

    IT LIVES !!!! FINALLY !!! Have this game since early December and only works now. Solved the sound problem by doing a few things but I’m pretty sure it was diabling “Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device” in (Control Panel), (System), Sound,Video and Game Controllers) and Diable the above, as was suggested earlier on in this list.I also diabled the Bletooth Audio devices in the same list as I don’t use them. Hope this helps someone.

  1333. jruijs — February 17, 2009 @ 10:56 am

    @Leonardo

    The game freezes after the “Ring of Steel” level. I now tried it with the 1.2 patch, and it still fails at loading the Eviction level (no error or warning whatsoever, just freezes during the animation of the Eviction level). The worst thing is that the game does not save the game data, so I have to do the “Ring of Steel” level over and over again, before testing another possible “solution”. This means that the savegame is done AFTER the animation of the NEXT level?!!?!! Sounds like very bad programming to me …!!

    There is a plus though. The problem of course seems to be the onboard Realtek chip soundcard. Aside from the real question why this is different compared to COD4, which works fine, there are the following problems I have with COD5:

    - Animations are sound hampered. Only about 50% of the animations are with sound that can be understood. Many stuttering sounds or temporary freezes are heard during the animations. How hard can this be, cosidering the poor quality of the animations of COD5 …? Does COD5 use new sound functionality that does not work for Realtek chipsets anymore? Those animations could have been played perfectly (WITH SOUND!) on a pc 10 years ago …

    - The game also crashes sometimes after finishing the “Ring of Fire” level. It’s a nice level, so I don’t mind playing this level over and over again, at veteran level, but the level of boredom has been reached … (:->)

    - The game freezes/crashes when playing the animation of the “Eviction” level.

    - The game is very slow (1 or a few frames a second) compared to COD4.

    I tried the following solutions:

    - Install new Realtek drivers
    - Reinstall image of fresh XP-installation
    - Bought a new Video-card (to solve the slowless)

    None of the “solutions” above helped in any way …

    However after installing the new 1.2 patch, I also:

    - Disconnected some (jack-)connectors from the soundcard which belonged to my 5.1 headphones.
    - Installed the newest drivers from Realtek

    And now the game plays at a comfortable speed (except some forest levels), and that is the positive side, but … it still freezes when loading the Eviction level … (:-<) Some disk-access is still seen during a few minutes, but after that, nothing happens anymore and I have to abort the game by rebooting the pc or stopping the COD-process(es) …

    Fixed Solo/Co-op Error

    I was getting the following error with 1.2 patch

    AppName: codwaw.exe AppVer: 1.2.1054.0
    ModName: ~dec0aa.tmp
    ModVer: 4.90.10.2781 Offset: 00009ab9

    when trying to run Solo/Co-op game no matter what I tried it wouldn`t work then on advice from Activison support I uninstalled Noteburner which is a A Virtual CD Burner That Removes DRM and now everything now works, apparently Noteburner has emulation tools which can interfere with the copy protection on the game disc.

  1344. jruijs — February 19, 2009 @ 8:04 am

    My (important) problems are solved ….!!

    It took me a week in total to fix the problems I encountered with COD5 (Having XP, RealTek onboard, NVIDIA 6600 & 8500):

    My problems were:

    - Sometimes crashing/halting on “Ring of Fire” leading animation, and always crashing/halting on the “Eviction” leading animation.

    - Very slow game-speed, about 1 or 2 frames a second, even at the lowest resolution.

    - Hampering/stuttering sounds during the leading animations.

    - Black screens (with sounds) at restarting a level.

    The last problem had an easy workaround (looking at the sky and moving the mouse a little bit).

    I always thought that my onboard Realtek soundchip was the problem, but it seems that I had 2 independent problems. I found this out by turning off the sound-device completely and removing the (newest) driver for it. Then COD5 still crashed at the “Eviction” level, but after uninstalling the sounddriver, now and then got a blue XP-screen, mentioning an infinite loop in nv4_disp. So this crashing was a specific video-driver problem.

    So after trying all kinds of variations/options/settings/drivers/COD-patches etc.., it now works and I can now even play COD5 on a 1280×1024 resolution with normal playing speed! I just don’t know which of the solution(s) really solved the problem … Seems like a combination of them; new sound/video drivers, new COD-patch, new video-card.

    Still think COD4 is much better … That took only 0 days to get it running … (:->)

  1345. nate — February 19, 2009 @ 10:54 am

    hey everyone,

    okay heres the deal game worked great up untill v1.2 patch now it randomly crashes during multiplayer gameplay and i mean really random sometimes right off the hop other times i can play for multiple hours at a time, the weird thing is every time it crashes it crashes hard to the point of needing to be reset. mainly theres 2 different kind of crashes

    1. Random textures(most of the time its stuff like trees rocks on the ground boxes etc. either fuzz out or change colour, and normally all the names and chat fuzzes out.

    2. i get a typical windows hardware blue screen crash.

    if anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated my uncles hooked on online play but can stand to go on with the constant kicking (neither can i to be honest)

    thanks
    Nate

    182.06 WHQL XP 32-bit of Nvidia those drivers fixed my problem.. I was able to adjust the graphics to play up the part with the Tanks..then it would crash and give a directx error. before that..black screen on start up.. I deleted all the videos except Default.blk. I finished the game today.. and after the credits Zombie’s is fun to play also.. it seems like Activision should have had us a working game.. I played Call of Duty 1 thru 4 with no patches no extras Nothing.. for 5 New sound card and video card..and 9 differnt drivers to make it all work. sheese.. this is stupid.

  1364. Leonardo — February 23, 2009 @ 9:38 am

    All of you! If errors are generated while playing, try to lower the screen resolution. it is the best way. I know that this game needs a rebuild. Some fixes are useless. But this thing I know will work. Out.

  1365. Urso — February 25, 2009 @ 2:44 am

    hi … i just got cod5 and i installed and made the crack successfully. As i run the game it gets the logo like its running then stops and tells me cod5 has encountered an error. Some1 please help me !!!

  1366. Matthew — February 25, 2009 @ 4:38 am

    Hi I typed in acomment a while ago stating that I couldn’t open the game and that my PC just crshed well the best solution is if possible do not use vista as vista uses !GB of ram with resources and two you pretty much need a new computer. I went to a company and brought a barebones with a powerful CPU and now my game works really quickly without any problems.

  1367. Asgrimur — February 26, 2009 @ 2:02 am

    hey i cant launch multiplayer, its been working fine for a few weeks and now it says: “Call of Duty(R)has stopped working, a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available” - it doesnt even open… always this error message Please HELP ME

  1368. Leonardo — February 26, 2009 @ 3:40 pm

    Hahaha!!! Game is finished. Fighting over the air, land nad sea. I did not even noticed that this game conquers my mind so much. And to the one that says do not use Windows Vista in this game, I assure that I’m telling the truth. Nice game even someone says that this game was poorly created compared to COD4. Out!

  1369. jruijs — February 28, 2009 @ 9:26 am

    I agree that after playing the later levels, the game on itself is not that poor. I call it even a good game if one does not consider the bugs. I’m still stuck on the last level and especially that level has the charm of the COD that I like. I.e. chaos and where my lazy tactics of taking one guy out at a time, just does not work!

    But nevertheless, it took me more time to get the game working at all, than playing it on veteran level! That still is a measure for quality in my book!

    And even now some problems still exist, for example I cannot put my resolution back to 1024×768 anymore, because it crashes and doesn’t change the setting. But compared to the problems I had, these are luxury problems …!

    Ok for any one using CoD5 under XP ( service pack 3 ) If you have any freezing issues, under the video settings be sure to have duel video cards enabled ( even if you don’t have x2 )

    I had freezing issues and this worked for me and in playing it over an hour online it has not frozen for me once.

    My specs are E8500-GTX 260-640gig HDD-2gig of ram- P5Q Pro.

    Hope this helps anyone with freezing issues.

    THE MODEM THING WORKS–

    I HAD BEEN PLAYING COD5 SUCCESSFULLY ON THIS COMPUTER FOR OVER A MONTH, AND AT SOME POINT IT JUST STARTED GETTING THAT “OFFSET” ERROR AT BOOT — I.E. IT WOULDN’T BOOT THE GAME AT ALL.

    I READ THE MODEM BIT, AND IGNORED IT — HOW COULD IT BE THE MODEM, AFTER ALL? I HAD THE MODEM INSTALLED WHEN THE GAME WAS WORKING (I WOULD ASSUME — I SURELY DIDN’T INSTALL IT MANUALLY AFTER I INSTALLED THE GAME, AND I HAVEN’T REINSTALLED WINDOWS).

    I tried disabling it, but I was too hesitant uninstall it — after all, again, how could it work given the fact that the game had previously worked during a period when the modem must have been (or so I thought) installed.

    In any case, I UNINSTALLED THE MODEM AND IT WORKED PERFECTLY.

    MY ADVICE: DON’T DISCOUNT THE MODEM ADVICE, EVEN IF THE GAME HAD PREVIOUSLY WORKED AND YOU DON’T FEEL THE MODEM HAS NEWLY BEEN INSTALLED OR ITS SETTINGS ALTERED, ETC.

    JUST TRY IT!

  1377. Justin — March 2, 2009 @ 8:58 pm

    Oh yeah, just to be clear: disabling the modem DID NOT work. Only uninstalling it completely.

    For you people on here who call those of us giving helpful advice “idiots” or a**holes because you lack enough computer knowledge to follow relatively simple directions, I’ll hold your hand:

    In Windows XP (!):

    Click Start
    Click Settings –> Control Panel
    Double Click System
    Click the Hardware Tab
    Click the Device Manager button
    Click the little “plus sign” next to Modems
    Uninstall the Modem you see there (right-click it, or use the button to uninstall after left-clicking it)

    ALSO, see #46 IF THIS DOESN’T WORK, but just remember that he’s not being as explicit as I am. I’ll even help you out. The folder will actually be called:

    C:\Documents and Settings\$$$$YOUR USERNAME$$$$$\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW

    DONT FORGET the local part — the appdata folder won’t have it

    you can actually just click start–>run and type “local settings” and hit enter. that’ll bring up the folder, then click on the application data folder, and delete that garbage (the parts 46 says) if the modem thing doesn’t work.

    i am having problems with vista and cod waw. i can get into multiplayer and play fine and the all of a sudden it goes to the desktop and says windows found a problem and it will notify when there is a solution. is there something i have set wrong with the game or computer? it doesnt do it all the time just when ever it feels like it. i have all the updated drivers and have read numerous websites trying to figure this out any help would be appreciated.

  1380. Leonardo — March 3, 2009 @ 11:21 am

    Hahaha!!! I’m waiting for the release of Call Of Duty 6. All of you people, do you think that another series of this game had to be released??? LOL!!!

  1381. The HOBBIT — March 3, 2009 @ 11:39 am

    I see many many problems here with cod4 and cod waw.
    have all of you having problems with black screen and freezes check if your pc can handle these cod games? like how much memory you have? Try to get rid of old games, clean your registry, a complete reformat and i mean complete will make lots of space for your game in your hard drive. you can have all the ram you want, yet overloaded hard drive will make your game suck. After that, update all your drivers, install your game and update it. After that run a defrag…..

    Before you re-install/reformat, make sure to run KILLDISK. This software is free and will erase everything on your hard drive. Than you run your windows disk…….Make sure to burn a copy of KILLDISK, so you can have it at all times..you need it to erase your hard drive. DONT FORGET TO BURN A COPY BEFORE REFORMATTING !!

    You will be suprised how much space will appear on your hard drive.
    I did all that and my pc runs like a sweet cherry pie..
    My games run sweeter !!

  1382. Matt — March 4, 2009 @ 3:40 am

    Eric how much ram do u have if you have vista i sugest you have 3gb or more as vista can use more than 1gb in resources without any programs running so imagine how much it uses when you play the game

  1383. eric — March 4, 2009 @ 5:22 am

    i have 4gb and i just built the computer about a month ago with a asis p5q MB, and a ati hd4850 GC shouldnt that suffice as far as playing cod waw. and that is the only game i have on the computer currently. it kills me because i can play the game for hours and then all of a sudden bammmmmmmmm no workie.
    and the other times it will happen multiple times back to back. thanks for the help

So, if some of you have had the same problem and solve it i hope you will be able to help me solve mine also. Thanks in advance, and sorry if i have some mistakes in my english, i’m not PRO (yet) but i study hard to learn it best.

    And BTW this is my Computer Configuration (as i have read i would be able to play COD World at War at this Computer)

It uses 100% cpu, after about 10 minutes it will load the mission and it plays just fine. i got to a certain mission and my computer crashes every time now. i dont know what to do.

  1393. Vashy — March 15, 2009 @ 9:30 pm

    I got problem #5. When ever i try to launch the game, its gives me this “A Problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the progam and notify you if a solution is available.” I have updated my drivers, got the latest dx9…dunno what to do

  1394. Raner — March 16, 2009 @ 2:22 am

    For you guys with the sound problem
    Found this by “Frosty”

    Note: For Windows XP
    ——————–

    First up is to check what audio playback devices you have registered:

    1. Go to Control Panel > Sound and Audio Devices > Audio (tab) > Sound playback section
    2. Look at the combo-box’s list of devices and note the ones which aren’t your soundcard to help you find a matching item in the Device Manager later
    –Note: ATI HD Audio rear output (HDMI out for Radeon owners) shouldn’t be a problem
    Next locate the items in Device Manager to disable or uninstall them:

    Right click My Computer > Properties > Hardware (tab) > Device Manager
    Find and disable the extra sound devices (probably under Sound, video and game controllers or System Devices)
    - If you can’t find anything that matches click View > Show hidden devices and check again
    - If you still can’t find anything close Device Manager and right click My Computer > Properties > Advanced (tab) > Environment Variables and add DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES to System Variables with a value of 1 (this will make Device Manager show everything it has detected over the lifetime of your OS instance that are no longer installed, like cards you’ve swapped out etc..), then reopen Device Manager >..> Show hidden devices and check again
    Repeat the steps in the first part to check that only your sound h/w remains, if you have a Radeon 4___ then ATI HD Audio rear output will also be there (unless you disabled it) but that shouldn’t interfere, you can go back and try disabling that as well if you still get the “Sound Acceleration Error”

  1395. SykoSaddo — March 16, 2009 @ 6:04 am

    Vashy I had the exact same problem. Was is ur pc spec cos mine was just not powerful enough. You pretty much need a new chip and graphics card and if this is the case you might aswell just but a new pc.

  1396. boro — March 16, 2009 @ 7:07 am

    well mine problem is sux in game [COD WAW] in sound option i cannot change the options i got sound configuration stereo speakers (in game) but in system all works proper 5,1 thise looks just like call of duty dont recognize my sound card , withc is preatty god creative xfi dunno what to do with thise ;/

  1397. Activity — March 16, 2009 @ 9:24 am

    I followed the advice to fix my sound to 24×4800 or whatever it said. Still have a problem that when I’m playing I can play for about 2 or 3 minutes, it stops, goes black and vista says that W@W MP stopped working and asks you if you want to check the internet for a solution and nothing. My pc is pretty high speed and have never had this problem until recently. I would greatly appreciate any feedback on how to fix this problem otherwise I’ll just drop a line to activision to tell them how stupid they were about their patches not fixing the major problems that we are faced with. Hit boxes seemed a little more important than fast ranking servers. Thanks again

  1398. jason — March 17, 2009 @ 10:27 am

    I have the same problem with playing COD 5, as it is shown above - ” Problem #2 PC - Call of Duty World at War Error Message: “Error during initialization: Unhandled exception caught” but my system is running on XP, can anyone help me solve this problem?

  1400. jason — March 18, 2009 @ 3:47 am

    I could not get the game to come up. Kept getting a black screen and then back to the desktop. I am running xp….all I did was disable the modem audio in the hardware manager in “system” and the game fired right up. I did what was outlined in #35 above. I also updated my ac’97 realtek audio driver to be sure.

  1401. EWAn — March 18, 2009 @ 9:22 am

    Hello and good days to all God damn noobs there. If you have receiving black screen and just sounds playing, just try to lowering the resolution to 800×600. Know what? I have change my monitor into flat screen. It is now PnP monitor. When I use the default settings, only black screen appears. But when I changed back my monitor into non-PnP, I can still play it on 1024×768. So keep in mind, this game needs rebuilds.

    Now, if you can’t hear the sounds, just update it. Don’t even try to use AC 97 Realtek. Just because it is the primitive driver. Hahaha, I know it supports DirectX 9.0c but it is for DirectX 8.1. Because you cannot change the output of the sound! Use Realtek HD for sure.

    Please read this carefully because I’m too tired posting God damn solutions here. maybe you have to buy an original one. How many times I have to say this? Treyarch is a shit! Because it didn’t fixed the bugs before this game was released. If you have to stay on pirated software, a lot of errors will be shown. Now, if you want to play this game without errors, put in mind that illegitimate software will kick your ass!!! Hahaha!!! This is one thing I have to say, even I have a pirated copy, I finished the game. Without errors, without black screens, with sounds and most of all, no bugs. Know why? Choose the best pirated copy! This is for sure!!! AHAHAHAHA!!!! God damn COD 5!!! Piece of cake. Out!!!

    I have problem with cod waw 1.3 patched. before i patched it to ver 1.3 i could simply connect to private servers using “connect ip” in console… but now when its 1.3 it doesnt work at all. it there any solution? when i type “connect ip” in console nothing happens.

  1404. Vlad — March 19, 2009 @ 6:24 pm

    I’ve found another solution for XP users, specifically, those with onboard Realtek sound card solutions. Probably a one-off, but may as well list it.

    It seems that disabling S/PDIF output through the mixer tab in the Realtek Audio Manager (in Control Panel) spontaneously fixed problem #2. As I said, may be a lucky break. Also, it is possible to change to sound quality in the same window.

  1405. Jimmy — March 20, 2009 @ 7:40 pm

    I really hope that you can solve my problem. But anyway, i’m
    getting a huge problem after installization. When i decide to play again, it says that it didn’t quit properly last time that i went on. Even if i click yes or no to quit properly first or not, it says that The video card or driver doesn’t support UBYTE4N vertex data. HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! please?

  1406. SingeMagique — March 21, 2009 @ 12:23 am

    The following has worked for me an several others experiencing the “Unhandled Exception Caught” and subsequent crash to desktop.

    This fix works for Vista, I haven’t tried it for XP.

    If you have Realtek HD audio, update your drivers to the latest from Realtek’s website. And it’s also a good idea to keep your video drivers updated.

    The Fix:

    Enable stereo mixing your audio options (recorder tab).

    To enable stereo mixing in Vista, go to Control Panel > Sound > Recording Tab (right click and check show disabled devices) from there enable stereo mixing.

    Hi whenever i go into cod5 single player or multiplayer it says “cannot connect to online service” this is official retail game “not the beta”.
    i have tried….
    -uninstalling and then reinstalling the game and patching to latest version
    -portforwarding

    Even if i create a profile it wont let me cos you have to be connected to online service.

    Does it normally show you your key code in the multiplayer settings just below your player name? because my key code is not shown.

    anyway if anyone can find a fix to my problem i would really appreciate it thnx

  1419. Lanf — March 27, 2009 @ 3:57 am

    Fuck it’s me again! When i thought the Shit storm is over it started again! happily lvl 65 account, well i want to play the game in multiplayer well i have to patch it! allright What the fuck i can’t use my old profile or create a new one arrrgh! And a completely legal copy bought retail fuck it!

  1420. matt — March 27, 2009 @ 4:32 am

    plz help i still cant get cod5 workwhenever i go into cod5 single player or multiplayer it says “cannot connect to online service” this is official retail game “not the beta”.
    i have tried….
    -uninstalling and then reinstalling the game and patching to latest version
    -portforwarding

    Even if i create a profile it wont let me cos you have to be connected to online service.

    Does it normally show you your key code in the multiplayer settings just below your player name? because my key code is not shown.

    anyway if anyone can find a fix to my problem i would really appreciate it thnx

  1421. CaptAmerica — March 27, 2009 @ 4:55 am

    Hey

    I found a way to fix the single player crash.What you do is you go to the shortcut for the game and go to properties.Once you are in there click the tab that says “Compatibility”. Next make sure the box is checked and had the selected mode to Windows 95. Then fire up ur game and start playing (if it works for you). It worked for me. Enjoy =)

  1422. Frisco — March 28, 2009 @ 5:56 am

    whenever i play multiplayer after a while punkbuster will kick in and shutdown my game saying i have a memory error. i’ve tested my computer on can you run it? and it says i have a good enough amount of memory to play. the reccomended is 512 and i have 1 gig so whats the problem? please help. i’ve updated my all drivers and everything

    Answer:
    (do it as i say step be step,to make it work)
    1.I hope you understand my english.
    2.uninstal the game.
    3.install the game,RELOADED version(do not copy crack from a disc)
    4.install Patch 1.2
    5.install Patch 1.3
    6.Create profile as up there “Problem #7″ says
    7.Get that(http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4755866/COD5__WaW_1.3_mp_online_crack_NO_PB_KICK)
    (it’s a patch,your antivirus will catch it as a virus,thats is 100% sure)ignore it it’s not a virus.trust me(if you want).
    8.If you start a game for a first time,in your profile directory,you have to have:one empty folder with your name;and one tex file with name “active”,in that empty file you have to write your name of your profile.thats it.
    And the most important part!:
    9:You nave to stop filecheck of your antivurus program.When you start COD5__WaW_1.3_mp_online_crack_NO_PB_KICK.exe,dont have to pop up an eror massage,if pop the patch will do not work later in the game REMEMBER IT.
    10.Start COD5__WaW_1.3_mp_online_crack_NO_PB_KICK.exe
    11.Start ORIGINAL!!! CoDWaWmp.exe
    12.Aply COD5__WaW_1.3_mp_online_crack_NO_PB_KICK(Alt+1)
    13.connect to your favorite server
    14.When once connected Imediatly press Alt+2 to stop the patch.
    15.Kill everybody
    ANOTHER most important part!!
    16.Next time you wont to play the game,it will try to retrieving accounts information again .To fix that you have to delete a file”config_mp.cfg” from your profile directory,in there you nave only to nave these two:mpdata;mpdatabk0000.If you do not delete it and game try to retrieving account information again,you have to check point 8 up there again.

    Deleting file config_mp.cfg is disadvantage i understand,you lost your game settings,resolution,sontrols,Class,etc.i cant have solution for that,but the files mpdata,mpdatabk0000 keep you rating,thats good.

    I hope you read this,thats mean that you are read all till here,and if you make it you will enjoy that awesome GAME.

    Good luck and God speed!

    FOR THOSE SUFFERING ON GAME CRASH DURING MULITPLAYER

    I’ve got a solution which works for me.
    I can’t get work this game under Vista x64. After 5-20 minutes it crashes to desktop. CoDWaWmp.exe stopped working…
    I’ve tried win xp. Same crash. Tried all available drivers and fixes which can be found here. NOTHING worked.
    for somebody. Hallejuja

    FOR THOSE WHO ARE SUFFERING ON GAME CRASH DURING MULITPLAYER

    I’ve got a solution which works for me.
    I can’t get work this game under Vista x64. After 5-20 minutes it crashes to desktop. CoDWaWmp.exe stopped working…
    I’ve tried win xp. Same crash. Tried all available drivers and fixes which can be found here. NOTHING worked. Even switching to another mainboard and ram didnt’t worked. (tried a lot of different Bios setting too)

    I gave it a last try with Win XP (tried that before) and changed from ACPI to Standard PC under device manager.
    AND NOW IT WORKS WITHOUT CRASHING! Ok, win Xp uses only one core out of my intelquad, but it runs fine.

    Win xp gave me blue screen when trying to install Standard PC during installation by hitting F5. So i changed it afterwards.

    Perhaps that will help somebody out there.

    My setup:
    Asus Maximus II Formula
    4×2GB Corsair 1066
    Ati HD4870

    Hey i found a way create the account so it stops the “LOOP” If you have Zonelabs in your computer you have to Re-ennable the game internet connection, after the patching.

  1428. Jovana — March 31, 2009 @ 1:53 am

    I cant create online profile, like others. I’m using XP and there isn’t those stuff that you wrote in problem #7. When I click to create a profile it just says that profile cannot be created…

  1429. andrew witmer — March 31, 2009 @ 1:09 pm

    this is for the xbox 360, w@w crashed. i was level 65, 4th prestige. Turned my console on last night and it was as if i just purchased the game. but i still had all my map packs. on top of the unwanted “reset” the custom classes are all kinds of fuckered up.
    and at the start of the games i get a bunch of error messages. any help would be greatly appreciated.

  1430. your saviour — April 3, 2009 @ 8:04 am

    this goes out to all my struggling brothers, fuck those mothafucking idiots who claim that the game works, first of all its a fucking retarded rip, with a lot of missing files that suppose to help the game run. the guy/girl/dooshbag who ripped the game hopefully gets ripped him/herself one day. delete this game and fuck the rest of you, who knows this whole game contains a fuckin virus. because i noticed that my notebook (new) turned to be a bit slower than usual, and my antivirus keeps turning off itself??????? i think we got punkd … definitly not by ashton kutcher, but by a doosh.!

    I bought COD:WaW but the game sound is not working. I have a ECS X48T-A Mobo with realtek HD sound, windows XP Pro SP3 and Directx 9.0c last build. Every game in my computer works fine except COD:World at War, it has no sound since the introduction video, in the menu, nor in the single player. I tried to use the realtek lastest driver (WDM_R221) and the ECS realtek ?HD driver (Realtek_1021). Tried what is described in the steam help titled “sound crash”, but nothing seems to work.

    What do I do?

    Platform and other details- Pc, original game, cod waw was installed before this and worked then i reformatted and it did not work (this problem)

    I need some help:
    When i go to make a online profile i think it has a problem saving. I type my name and it will just loop around and ask me if i want to make a online profile, i try a different name and it loops again.

    I tryed to:
    Update graphics card drivers
    Update motherboard drivers
    Update direct X to latest version

    Uninstall \ Reinstall (did this 3 times, once i changed the installation to D drive)

    I have changed my active text and made a folder with my char name (tryed this about 10 times) made the active file read only and it still changes or restets back. C:\Documents&Settings\MYNAME\LocalSettings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles

    Shutting down windows firewall (and allowing it)

    I got a mate of mine to send his profile details to me and replaced my own. I changed the name of his profile to mine
    ( tryed 4 -5 differnt names than changed active text. (still nothing)

    I downloaded something to change it manually for me just incase i was missing something (no such luck)

    contacted makers and developers (nothing back)

    (Alot of these profiles i have made have shown up in singleplayer mode only but no luck in mulitplayer)

    (i do not wish to go and by another copy of call of duty WAW but if that is the case Damn)

  1448. chaos — April 13, 2009 @ 12:11 pm

    Hi!

    I have bought the original cod waw for pc. I have installed patch no 3. I lost all the ranks before i had! But the most wierd thing is that whenever a bomb blasts in cod 5 while playing multiplayer my server hangs and then ultimately it stops running and gives an error: has exit the server!……. wtf is this my friend….. bomb blasts and i am out?

  1455. nick — April 18, 2009 @ 1:20 pm

    Hi, recentlly I purchased a new copy of CoD5 and installed it as soon as i got home. But when I tried to start the multiplayer it froze at the loading screen! I tried re-installng the program, which was a huge pain, and that didn’t do anything to fix the problem. Except the realy wierd thing is that single player and online Co-Op still work perfectlly! P.S. I didn’t try to run the game BEFORE patching it so it could be something with the patch and not the game itself.

  1456. proplayer — April 18, 2009 @ 3:21 pm

    My problem is that i can run everything fine but after a certain time can be 10 min 30 min even 50 min my game freezes. Then when i press ctrl alt delete go back in the game it fixes itself but it will continue freezing from this point on more frequently.

  1465. Nicko — April 23, 2009 @ 8:43 pm

    Finally Fixed my no sound problem.
    I’m Running XP and found that I still had my old Dialup modem installed (i’m now on broadband different modem).
    So to fix goto Control Panel > Phone Modem Options > Modems Tab, select your old modem if it’s there and click Remove. I also uninstalled and reinstalled the game and all patches. (also installed latest audio and graphics drivers first)

    whenever I try to play on a multiplayer server on my Mac (pc) using a program called boot camp to run Windows XP I recently installed service pack 3 (least think it was) anyway whenever it finishes loading the multiplayer map and it goes to pick your team and everything the screen goes blank and the sound cuts out, not very long after that the computer has the blue screen and death (if you don’t know what that is, its when the computer dies and a blue screen comes up with all this writing and you can’t read it because the computer reboots so fast) so I am open for suggestions, anti anilising I turned off, did nothing. so please help

    @ #1473 James, in your graphics options, try turning dynamic foliage to ON. If it’s already ON, then I don’t know what the problem is.

  1508. Ken — June 14, 2009 @ 5:35 am

    Ok! I worked out why there is black screen between the levels. But its a bit of an annoying work around that i could use everyone’s help with. (esp from people who have completed the game)

    First the reason why this happens. The videos that have been made for this game that go between the levels are very high resolution and frame rate. This is why there is a lot of black screen because the video is loading. These videos are in a BIK format.

    So yes deleting the Treyach file helps the game load faster. And infact deleting all the videos helps the levels load faster. But this makes the game kinda crappy cos a lot of the story is in these videos.

    What you can do is MOVE the videos out of the game folder and into a folder somewhere else, like your desktop for instance.

    Next you download radsgamestools, which plays bik videos. http://www.radgametools.com/down/Bink/RADTools.exe

    Use this to watch the videos when you want to. However its still quite slow when your playing the videos on account of this hi res and frame rate. In this programme you can specify the frame rate (i set it to 24 frames per second). The programme can also allow you to load the video first and then play to minimize buffer style glitches.

    Problem is, unless you played the whole game before you dont know what order the videos go in.

    If there is anyone out there that can look at the files and tell us the order in which these occour in the game there will be many thanks!!!

    My problem is that I bought cod5 everything is good except that multiplayer servers all say update. when I click on the server i get a message that says “server is a different version”. I applied the 1.4 patch and I still get the same errors. I can manually enter a few servers and play but I would like to have all the servers show up like they should. I have all the proper ports configured, router configured, as well as firewalls off. I have searched and found one person with the same problem but his update worked.

    PC Version 1.4

    If you have a second monitor, disable any desktop spanning before you start the game.. It worked for me.

    Ensure your refresh rate is set correctly, make sure your max refresh rate isnt higher than your monitor supports - both in your Windows settings AND ‘in game’ (graphics settings)!!

    Hi all!

    I have an error while playing to CoD5. Specially when I am firing the flamethrower, it doesn’t takes more than 5 minutoes to “freeze” the screen. Then, sometimes I can press alt+tab but, only one or two times because then CoD finally crash and doesn’t responds.
    Before having this error, I had another problem with DirectX: something like memory dumping or so.

    If anyone can help me, I would be very grateful. Thanks all. :D

    At the end of mission 10 (eviction) i get the notification that my next objection is to meet up with my squad. i jump off the train car and run up next to my comrades fighting. I sit there and start shooting at the germans on the other side of the debris. i shoot and shoot and shoot and shoot and nothing happens. the solder who is supposed to open the door just stands there and points at the door with his gun. he makes no move to open it. i stood in the center of the objective star on my map and was shooting for an hour and a half, in fact my whole squad sat there shooting for an hour and a half and nothing happened. No door opening, no wave, just more and more germans. i have not used any cheats in the game, and this is a brand new game, i bought 2 days ago new from best buy. why does this keep happening wen i play it?

    useing the cod5 installation i was able 2 install cod5, ive finished single player and during the reinstallation to fix the multiplayer, the setup.exe on the cd says that its incompatiable and that i need a 32bit version of the program. i thought games were multicompatable and if not, how was i able to install this previously.

Now i just can’t play it and when i select it it gives me an error message that says “Bsp file cannot find map. And then it tells me to put in some code but i have no idea how to do this. Can someone please help me out??

  1540. Billy — July 11, 2009 @ 11:22 am

    can someone plz help me for the pc version of COD WAW - everything is fine when i play multiplayer except that within 10 minutes of playing online it just freezes and goes into a black screen and i have to wait a few minutes for it to unfreeze and sometimes when it unfreezes it just returns me to the game and then within every ten minutes it keeps freezing like that although most times it take me to the home screen and disconnects me and i have to log in again.when i go to windows problem reports and solutions it says to me plz address the problem with NVIDIA graphics driver but when i update driver software in device manager it is the best software/up to date and i easily meet the system requirements, and the funny thing is when i run in safe mode it still freezes but as you know it puts the graphics low and when i restart the game it says it will adjust the settings for optimal performance for my computer it puts the settings high again - so is it possible to stop the freezing ?

  1541. Varun — July 12, 2009 @ 2:41 pm

  1544. matthew — July 16, 2009 @ 2:35 am

    Hello,

    I have the PC game of call of duty world at war and when you get ready for the install the sound works then after its installed it works but then when you push quit and then do the patch’s for 1.2 and 1.4 there is no sound. I’ve personally emailed activision and they say its something to do with my modem but i took the modem out and its disabled. I know its not the patch’s because they work on my brothers game. so I’m lost on this problem so if someone has had this problem and can answer this question on how to get sound that would be awesome. thank you for you time.

    matt

  1545. Sebaz — July 17, 2009 @ 11:56 pm

    Hey
    When i load up the mission eviction in solo mode, the very beginning of it where it intoduces where your fighting and where the man speaks freezes.
    I dont no what to do
    Some tips would be helpful.

  1546. matthew — July 19, 2009 @ 7:58 am

    hello again,

    my brother figured it out. if you don’t have sound on your game check your 56k modem located in the control panel. basically you need to disable your modem. kinda of odd but that was the problem on mine. later

  1547. varun — July 19, 2009 @ 4:18 pm

    Hello matthew ,

    Not really on my system, I do not have any modem installed.I have no clue what a weird problem this is indeed.Thanks for your help.

  1548. NO_oB — July 19, 2009 @ 10:14 pm

    @sebaz: get a newer driver for ur vga. such as 181.20 for nvidia. this will fix ur problem

  1549. matthew — July 20, 2009 @ 8:59 am

    hello varun,

    It took for ever to figure it out. because the activision guy said to disable the modem and we looked in the common place to look. but then my brother brain stormed and found this other spot and it said 56k modem. i new it was something we were just over looking. but yes indeed it is a weird problem not to have sound from a MODEM!!!! lol later

  1550. Danny — July 20, 2009 @ 10:29 am

    lately, nazi zombies on shi no numa hasnt been working. and my friends too say its not been working. why isnt it working?

  1551. Varun — July 20, 2009 @ 9:58 pm

    Hello matthew,

    I dont know if i am looking at the right place ( Control panel-> phone and modem options -> modems ) I do not see anything there.Also, in the windows device manager I do not see any under Network adapters nor as un-detected devices ( should not matter really though ).Thanks for the reply. Let me know if there is some other “place” i left out to search.
    Thanks,

  1552. luke — July 23, 2009 @ 8:05 am

  1555. nat — July 28, 2009 @ 7:52 pm

    I have a E2180 dual CPU 2GHz, an msi motherboard with realtek onboard sound card ALC888 , an nvidia 9600GT GPU and 1GB RAM on xp service pack3.I have this “unhandled exception caught” problem.I don’t know what to do.I run CoD4 single player on the same system which didn’t run the first time, only the multiplayer did, then i dowloaded the “1.7 exe”(i don’t know if it’s the right name)for CoD4 single player from gamecopy world, paste it in CoD4 folder and it worked fine.I tried the same thing for CoD:WAW with “1.4 exe” the game runs, but there’s no sound at all when playing.If my english or grammar is bad forgive me , but somebody help me please.

  1556. Michiel Nijboer — July 30, 2009 @ 1:28 am

    I use Vista and for some reason CoD WaW dind’t start anymore. I tried everything (including updating the game, motherboard chipset drivers, graphic card drivers, audio drivers and the audio settings as described on this page). Nothing worked. Finally found out that the problem lies in a tiny program I installed a while ago: SoundTap Streaming Audio Recorder by NCH software. It installs a device (control panel> system> device manager) called SoundTap Recorder. CoD WaW worked perfectly when I disabled this device (or uninstalled it).

  1557. David — July 30, 2009 @ 7:55 am

    I play on vista, and the game loads fine, but when i start the first mission, it goes haywire, the video plays fine, but its when im in the hut with the jap officer, that i get all of these weird shapes and colors on the screen. does anyone else have this problem, and do u know how to fix it?

    Black Screen Solution doesn’t solve the problem. Deleted the .bik file, alt-tabbed and esced. Nothing works. The screen is all black, no mouse cursor. When moving mouse around the sound of the cursor touching main menu choices can be heard.

  1565. Jackeroo — August 7, 2009 @ 8:10 am

    ok, I have looked everywhere for a fix but I’m not finding anything. I have an error message when i’m trying to start up multi-player for CoD WaW. I have Vista and newest directx and did the sound fix for “unhandled exception caught. Then when i went to play online i got:

    Error during initialization:
    could not load default assets ‘fonts/consolefont’ for asset type ‘font’.
    Tried to load asset ‘fonts/smalldevfont’.

    Please help me, i am beginning to get frustrated and have not heard back from 2 other sites or their support team. Thank you.

  1566. Frisky Dingo — August 8, 2009 @ 5:47 pm

    Pffff,i’m about to delete this game permanently from my pc.
    It keeps crashing in solo & multiplayer mode.
    I have all patches installed ,tried xp-mode,i tried to run the game as administrator,tried the sound fix and the latest drivers but nothing works for me.
    I also tried to delete the game & to install it again ( 3 times this far )
    It seems that i am able to play the solo mode whithout the patches (without the game crashing) but i want to play the multiplayer version and therefor i need to install the patches & that’s where all the problems begin
    I can play bf 2,wow,crysis & tom clancy’s H.A.W.X without any problems but this game will give me gray hairs.

  1567. deliteguy — August 10, 2009 @ 12:45 am

    PS3:
    Dang, whats happened to me seems rare but here’s what happened: I beat the game with most of the levels done on veteran and I went to get all the deathcards. The last one I had to get was in Breaking Dawn. I got the deathcard… and immediately saved and quit because I had to go somewhere. When I came back, I had nothing at all. It started a new game, and I lost all my death cards but I still kept the online profile. I still kept my trophies as well. I ended up continuing the last game, so that just brought me back to beating that level and before but only on easy difficulty. Still no death cards. Can someone explain why it happened? Was it because I unlocked all the deathcards or was it because I saved and quit.
