CoD won't fully start up

I wonder if they are causing issues on the DVD version too?

Can you browse to the folders/files on your DVD? There maybe a way to try and run the installers from there.

I have also added launcher.exe(CoD) into my Nvidia Control panel under: Manage Settings/Program Settings, where I changed CUDA-GPUs to ALL>Use These GPUs> GT330M(my video card). I also turned THreaded Optimisation to -ON, but left everything else. Not sure if that did much, but I can fly over water OK.
That's all I got sorry.

So your gt330m is working? is that a laptop, what drivers are you using?
Ive got the samsung r780 gt 330m got game through steam, but damed if i can get it to work
Starting to think, this is a steam problem

I think that the steam version might not have downloaded some files, like shaders. Can someone with a working copy of CoD locate their shaders folder so we can compare it?

We should really get help from 1C, how can we get their attention on this?

While people are complaining about lag issues, we can't even get the friggin game to start and it's been 4 days since purchase...

I enabled the logging feature (turn off the Steam Cloud and enable log in conf.ini). An unhandled exception is shown in the logfile, unfortunatelly it does not help since it does not give a clue where the problem might be (code is obfuscated).

Main begin:
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: startIndex cannot be larger than length of string.
Parameter name: startIndex
