Call of duty 4 (COD4) on windows seven

Mr GRiM said:

The Official RC and the leaked 7127 build after were the only builds that did not result in API kicks, IMO no other build until RTM will work because Punkbuster doesn't have the official access to them and therefore they wont be supported.

What about build 7229, that is official?

He's right, im using 7127, and i updated my PB, and it is clear sailing for me , anything after, results in a boot =.=

Status update: So far I have not been kicked after following T3CHWORKS Windows7 too. What did it I think is the interact with desktop. I noticed COD4 changes the desktop to classic view instead of Aero...that might be what is causing the API. If you kicked, try switching your theme to classic. Its a try anyways. So far so good. That and the PB update too!

Hi.

My problem is this. When I play Call of Duty 4 online, i get kicked out of the servers and it shows me this: "Unknown Windows API Function" "API Kick 131136".

I googled it and i found out this "Known cause: Running BF2 in compatability mode
Solution: Disable compatabilty mode, do not run other programs in compatability mode at the same time." I dont know what to do to get the game work.

I bought Call of duty 4 today and this computer last week so Im little lost :S Could anyone help me?

Use W7 build 7127, or Use Vista.

How can I use build 7127 ?

I tried to install cod4 on windows 7 build 7264, it says windows cant access specific device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to acess the item. It worked the last time I installed it and I havnt reinstalled my computer. It used to have the auto run and icon and everything. When I tried to load the set up through the folder it self, it stops and says verify the pah of the file then asks me to abort or retry, like most cases retry doesn't work, so I'm forced to abort it

Can anyone try my method on 7600.16385??
-Install clean copy od win7 without formatting
-Browse in C:/windows.old/Program Files/Activision and move "Call of Duty 4" folder in c:/ProgramFiles/
-DO NOT reinstall call of duty 4 or pb services (pbsvc.exe) -dunno about pbsetup.exe-
-Launch the game, enter your mp cd key in multiplayer options, open console and type /seta con_gameMsgWindow0FadeInTime "0"
-Try the game and feedback here!!

Any other methods works?
