| This only happens when I paly multiplayer, the single player works fine. When I change the res or the refreash rate of my screen, the games closes down and about 20 seconds later I get the message; "DirectX encountered an unrecoverable error. Check readme for possible solutions" The worst part when you boot COD4 up next time it gives you the option to run in safe made, which I did. Now this was a mistake as its now stuck in 640x480 and its REALLY not nice .Anyone ever had this or got a fix? |

| Sorry, I just worked it out. It only has that problem when I boot it through Steam, which has many problems of its own. I find myself having to go into the task manager and manually stop the Steam process every time I want to use it, and im sick of it. Sorry for the thead waste ![]() |

| Colonel Calamity | I try to stay away from Steam as much as possible, only have it open when I play CS:S. Otherwise for COD4 I just use the shortcut directly to the game itself. ![]() Thanks HL and Corsair! My opinions are my own and not representative of this site or its members. |

| I would, but alot of my friends only use steam so communication in-game isnt possible any other way. |

| Colonel Calamity | try to get them to use Xfire it works across all games (in game) and no need to keep steam open when playing other non-steam games ![]() Thanks HL and Corsair! My opinions are my own and not representative of this site or its members. |
