Re: Crash to desktop

First, restart your PC if you haven't already (actually shutting it off for 15-20 mins, then booting it up is even better).

When was the last time you played COD4 before last night? Try to think if you've installed any programs since then, or done any updates to any apps like firewalls, A/V programs, drivers etc. Sounds like something has changed on your system.

Finally, try other games you have installed, and see if any of them are having issues.

Try using a different account. It worked for me, but you lose all your progress.

So no real solutions...
This just started happening to me, accept i get an error message saying some file cant be found. I will tell you what the message says later. I am just going to copy my client data and reinstall. I think the zombie mod I installed did this to my game. I can start a LAN server but I cant join a real game. So this tells me its not a problem pertaining to the graphics

Had the exact same problem, also after installing a zombie mod. Strangely, even after deleting the mod and in fact all my mods, and reinstalling (twice), the problem persisted. I'm going to be really upset if it turns out that I have to start a new profile...

If you are going to reinstall be sure to back up your profiles folder then just replace it after it's reinstalled.
