BSOD running COD4:MW2 in Single Player

Hey guys,

I keep getting the BSOD when running MW2 in Single Player (haven't tried MP yet). It goes to BSOD then reboots my machine. I've updated my video card drivers and ended my Anti-Virus scanner's process (AVG 9 Free Edition) but to no avail.

I've completed the steps in the BSOD Posting Instructions (https://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...tructions.html). I would love some help on this issue :)

System (Custom Built):
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM DVD
- Installed myself
- System is about 2 months old
- Installed OS about 2 months ago
- No other known problems (played StarCraft 2, Half-Life 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Minecraft, etc. without incident)
Intel i7 960 @ 3.20GHz
ASUS P6T Motherboard
Corsair 12GB DDR3 RAM 1333MHz (6 x 2048MB)
Radeon HD 5850 - 1GB GDDR5
LG Flatron 23" Monitor
WD Caviar Black 500GB, 7200RPM, 32MB
Corsair TX750W 750-Watt Power Supply - ATX
Cooler Master HAF 932 Full Tower
On-Board Case Cooling

Thanks all

Three of 4 point to your video driver directly. the fourth indirectly.

Re-install the video driver

When upgrading your graphic driver you MUST remove all traces of the current driver. In order to do that we recommend using Guru3D - Driver Sweeper

When it is removed then download and install the fresh copy.

Patch the game if you haven't done so yet.

Make sure you uninstall the drivers from Control Panel or Device Manager, then make sure you also Uninstall the PhysX drivers. Restart to safe mode and run the sweeper.

Update your Audio drivers while you are at it.

Reboot and Install fresh drivers with Elevated Admin Rights (right click file Run as Admin).

Don't let Win 7 update your drivers.

Well, two things I have noticed and I am not a PC Guru by any stretch of the imagination but I do play a lot of games.

Windows drivers From Windows Update seem to be sucky drivers so I upgrade by downloading a fresh copy from the source (ATI or Nvidia)

Drivers get corrupted very easily this days so from time to time, every time I install a Game, new or old (I tend to replay my games from time to time), I notice something wrong so I just make a habit of downloading and refreshing my drivers.

Now, since I only do SP Campaigns, I don't bother patching but since you mentioned MP, I thought patching could help.
