Call Of Duty: World At War

[madspec]

The game does not want to start , did someone have a fix or something ?

Thanks

Do you have the Latest Video drivers and DirectX?

 

[madspec]

I guess so , i have the Prerelease WDDM 1.1 from the windows update and DirectX 10 installed .

Lesft 4 Dead works like a charm .

 

[Mark]

What about audio drivers?

 

[madspec]

Well , installed the Vista drivers from the Auzentech website , dont have 5.1 but everything else works fine .

 

[Mark]

Well I would suggest using one of the newer Vista Nvidia drivers like 185.20 beta and for your sound driver if you are using Realtek HD you should have driver 2.13 and is this the DirectX you installed directx_nov2008_redist, Hope this helps you.

 

[madspec]

The new 185.20 drivers have some serious issues with multicore rendering , so Left 4 Dead stutturs like hell , and if you tunr it off ( in the options menu of L4D ) you loose performane ....and lots of it .

Realtek HD 2.13 ..... Am i going to loose my control panel options if i install this ?

And for DirectX , the one that comes with Seven is not the latest ?

Thanks

 

[Mark]

No you wont loos e your control panel if you update your Realtek driver and that is the latest DirectX drivers as far as I know and there are other Nvidia drivers, try the latest WHQL driver 181.20

 

[madspec]

All 18x.xx have the same problem actualy . So i use 178.xx in xp and for Seven the one in the update . Weird thing just happend , Overclocked my vid card and not one game or benchmark works ...

Ill try to install HD 2.13 , thanks .

One thing you might want to check is the acutal format your sound card is putting out. Right click on the speaker icon and click Playback Devices. Double click on your soundcard you use. No go allthe way to the right to Advanced. Change it to 48000 Hz. I'm not sure why, bu tI had this issue as well. This fixed it right away.

Another thing you might want to check is if you updated your WEI after replacing the WDDM drivers with nVidia or 3rd party drivers.

Finally, the 181.25 WHQL drivers work perfectly fine on my system with a pair o' GTX260s....

 

[madspec]

mSeliga : It was the first thing i did ... bummer .


johngalt : On Seven i have the WDDM drivers install , did not update them from the ones on the Nvidia Site .

 

[johngalt]

then update to hte new nVidia WHQL drivers and see....

 

[madspec]

The new WDM drivers have Stutturing issues under a couple of games .. thats why i did not update . But ill try anyways

No you wont loose your control panel if you update your Realtek driver

I am just curious as to why he would need to download the Realtek drivers when he is using an Auzentek Meridian? Especially since the OP indicated other games are working fine. I am using Auzen drivers w/ CoD:WaW and having no issues.

I think you're on the right track with the video driver install. I would also probably reinstall the game as the installation might have gotten borked fro some reason.

 

[madspec]

What Auzentech card do you have ? X-Meridian ??

If so , do you have 5.1 ?


What GFX driver have you installed on 7 ??

Ok , looked at your system specs , nice rig You have the Prelude , still have 5.1 support ??? The only way i can get some 5.1 is to activate virtual 7.1 .. but not the same thing .

I tried everything but I can't make it work =(

I tried everything but I can't make it work =(

If your still using Build 7022 I would seriously think of upgrading to the RC or the latest leaked build 7127, I can play COD4 and COD WAW with no issues at all and no fixes other then updating Punk Buster.

 

[netomx]

In fact, I'm in RC and my problem was the profile, but I fix it and I post it on the forum. Thanks 4 the advice anyway

 

[dloj333]

Can you explain better about your profile problem and what you did to fix it? Thanks.
