Laptop CoD help needed: sounds but no picture
Hello people, I could'nt wait for my UK version of CoD to arrive so i give in and got russian version.
The problem; After starting CoD I get the following message before the game loads up from the sys tray; "Nvidia Kernel Mode (driver version) stopped responding and has recovered" Then the game loads as normal, all images are fine however when I go to pilot / plane loadout screen the boxes where they appear are black. Then after firing up a mission I just get a black screen but hear sounds, like Charile charles the instructor telling me to fly straight, different engine sounds when changing views, etc Here are a few things I've done to try to solve the problem, but each have returned with the same problem. Removing (using device manager/ add-remove then using driversweeper) changing many different nvidia drivers Updating Chipset driver Flashing bios Instaled Windows 7 32bit over 64bit Reinstalling CoD Changing CoD Resoultions / putting on lowest settings. My laptop specs are; Dell Studio XPS 13 Core 2 Duo P7800 2.53Ghz Gefarce G210m & 9400m Hybrid SLI 4 GB RAM Windows 7 - 64bit 500GB HD I know people will say my graphics card wont be able to hack it and they may have a vaild point, just seems strange I'd expect it least to be able to show gameplay no matter how jerky as Adonys laptop specs were very similar to this and his game is running fine, thing is all other games have been going ok, mafia 2, SH5, CoD Blackops, Crysis 2 demo Has anybody found or fixed this error before when gaming? Does anyone know of any tricks I could try (perhaps to the config file) in order to get this game running?. Also, with the forthcomming arrival of my UK game & the patch will the same thing be likely to happen? Any help would be very appreciated guys. Im just about ready to give up hope.

I think the problem is caused by that hybrid SLI video card you have, Geforce G210m & 9400m Hybrid SLI
try disabling one or other of the videocards. |

Exactly same problem here. I have a MacBook with an nvidia GeForce 9400M. I know this config sucks to play this game but I just wanted to try the game until I get a new computer... I didn´t expect it to run it fine but I don´t get why it cannot load the graphics...
It seems to be a problem with the GF 9400M card... Anyone has a solution? Thanks! |

I have exactly the same issue. My card is only a 1GB GeForce 230M.. so maybe it's not chunky anough anyway.

I have the same problem. I tried Luthier's advice to upgrade graphic card drivers to 270.51 or downgrade to 257.21 but nothing worked
(my card is GeForce GT130M) |

Have the same issue, just run it in DX9 mode..
Code:
Render=D3D9_0 |

I have the same exact issue, but when I start cod I get an error message saying: " Screen driver nvlddmkm stopped working.....(something something)" but then it starts anyway but with this exact problem.
Also tried updating vista and video card drivers but with no luck... Where in conf. should you add "Render=D3D9_0"? Last edited by blade122222; 03-31-2011 at 08:08 PM. |

It's already there, under the [window] section, just make it Render=D3D9_0 instead of Render=D3D10_0

In the window section I have only these:
DepthBits =24 StencilBits=8 DrawIfNotFocused=0 SaveAspect=0 no render |
