CoD 4 Can't Launch Single Player
CoD 4 Can't Launch Single Player
My cousin wanted to play CoD4 so I installed the game for him to play. Now we tried to play single player but the game refuses to start. When I try to launch single player, it shows:
Help guys. I have no idea how to fix this.
I read online that many people, both pirated and legit CoD 4 players have this problem. Now mine's legit so I have no idea why it refuses to work. I've already uninstalled, run CCleaner, then reinstalled CoD 4 along with all the available patches.Help guys. I have no idea how to fix this.

Yep. All of my drives are IDE except for my hard drive, which is SATA.

I had a ripped copy before. I ripped it using DVD Decrypter, then mounted it using Nero 6 image drive. It still shows the same thing...

NoCD cracks are in that legal 'grey area' so we really can't provide a link but they are really easy to find...marcefe wrote:I have the exact same problem Geokilla does, I would like to try this No-CD crack. Does anybody know where I can download this??? Plss!!!!!
Re: CoD 4 Can't Launch Single Player
Yes, only use no-cd cracks if you are really lazy and don't want to load your legally purchased discs into your DVD drive every time you want to play a different game.
Too bad piracy has to ruin everything for us honest people.
