I just put together a new machine. Installed Windows 7 Pro 64bit. I have more than enough of the specs for the game. But it crashes when playing for more than ten minutes on either single player or multiplayer. I have reduced the screen resolution. I have disabled the built-in Realtek audio. I have disabled my second ethernet port. I have disabled closed all background applications. I have given the game only one of the six processors i have. I have run in compatibility mode. I have run as administrator. I have read the forums, i have reinstalled my OS at least six times just because of this game. I have also monitored the fan and CPU temp. Temp is not more than 53 and the fan doesnt spike when playing the game. This game worked on Windows XP service pack 3. But why in the world would i have to "dumb down" a machine that works with the other programs i have (Adobe CS4, Office XP, etc.) just to play a game? I love the Call of Duty games but hate i cant make my very advanced machine work on it.
I have also BlackOPs but dont want to install the newer game if i cant get the older game to run. Any other suggestions from the many smart minds here?

One thing that I know you have to do with the realtek is make sure it is set to "stereo" I was having similar problems with a very sinilar system, once I did this I have had very few rpoblems. Good luck with your system and have fun playing COD4 I enjoy it very much since working out the bugs that plagued me for some time.
This is the one and only solution by far for the win 7 users facing the problems caused by OS...install " java sun virtual box" on ur windows 7 , it's a simulator on which you can install windows xp and use the "simulated" windows xp on seven, it works wonders on windows 7 and won't get much space u can install any programs on windows xp ( still working on ur win 7) and u can close the window of ur simulated xp any time you want like the other usual programs on ur win 7.
