I've googled it and all i got was to update my drivers and stuff. I did that but it still crashes. Any idea's?


Edit 2: Now i can't even play online. It keeps says Server Authentication Failed... What should i do?


Edit 3: Now i can't even play the game cause when i do get in a server i get bsod because of my nvidia drivers...


Worst game ever? I think so...

I had a similar experience with CoD4.  Update to the latest drivers, video, sound, chipset, etc. and reinstall the game.  If you have multiple PIC-E 2.0 slots on your motherboard, try moving it to a different slot, that's what cured my NVIDIA driver errors.

If you think it will help, update PunkBuster too.

I got it working after a few days but lost interest anyway. Doubt i'll buy the next COD even if activision is making it.

1)Update video drivers
2)Update sound drivers
3)Clean install COD5 with nothing else running
4)DirectX web update

Worked for me anyway. If I deviate from that formula then shit hits the fan. Textures errors, authentication failure, BSoD, etc...

CoD5 improved a bit since its initial release, but people still have problems.

So we can pay extra for the game, get worse graphics, and play FPS with a controller?

This.

DirectX update is what I needed to do to get 4 running (I can't imagine they are much different), along with switching my GFX card into the other PCI slot. 

Also try:
Start -> Type "msconfig" into search bar (Start -> Run -> "msconfig" on xp) -> General Tab -> Selective Startup -> Check "Load System Services" and uncheck "Load Startup items".  This basically just starts windows without any programs that startup when Windows start up, MS refers to it as a "clean restart."

+How old is your memory?  Sometimes bad memory can be the culprit, try running Memtest to see if you get any errors.  Reseating all of your components and making sure everything is snug and fits could also help as well.

The game costs pretty much the same, the graphics are stunning on HD, and FPS with a controller is fine(Did you never play goldeneye?)

Plus console games 99.9% of the time work right out of the box with no stupid PC shit.

Anything else?

Consoles are cheaper than gaming rigs for a reason.

Also,

Left 4 Dead PC & Left 4 Dead XBOX360

Newegg

Check any game that is still full retail price.

The graphics aren't stunning no matter what, but the PC can get higher AA/AF and resolutions.

yeah, because holding a button to aim is so much easier than just aiming.

Goldeneye was fun, but the controls were absolute shit.

That's not really much of a statistic, and consoles aren't perfect either. The 360 is widely accepted as unreliable (yes poseidon, I know yours hasn't broken yet) and the PS3 has freezing problems.

So yeah, Isn't it fair to prefer a better looking game, with the controller it was designed for, for $10 less, with a slight chance of PB problems. Instead of getting a worse looking game, $10 more, on a controller that's only really good at fighting and sports games, with a slight chance of having to ship your console off to Microsoft/Sony for them to fix it?
