755415 2009-03-11 03:53:00 Hey guys - recently installed win7 beta and am enjoying it.

however - Call of Duty 5 will install but won't run.
Fully patched, run as administrator, changed compatablity settings, tried many different things.

scoured many forums for solutions but nothing has worked and the info out there is slightly lacking.

Just wondering if any of you have had this issue and if you found a solution?

don't worry about linking me to forums asking to 'try this' as I have been searching for hours and hours and have probably already read and tried it.

Just after a personal 'experience' - did it work for you or not?

Cheers

755419 2009-03-11 05:44:00 I know you've tried running the game as admin, but have you tried installing as admin?

Wild guess.

yea still only beta


Have you tried setting compatibility mode to an OS you know it runs on??
Yes and nothing different happens.


but have you tried installing as admin?
No can't say I have tried this... time for something new :p

Thanks for your suggestions.

Well I guess its time to dual-boot again :D
Which basically means I won't bother using Win7 anymore :D
