Hey guys - I wonder if you can help!
« on: October 12, 2007, 08:26:03 PM »
Setup my new PC, had a few games of CoD2 but everytime I play ..... after a couple of maps I always get the error:

DirectX has encountered an unrecoverable error

And I get kicked to desktop.

I am still using XP, got the latest drivers for:
Soundcard
8800gts
motherboard

I have never had this error with CoD2 before ..... any ideas?

get the newest direct x
A story. A man fires a rifle for many years. and he goes to war. And afterwards he comes home, and he sees that whatever else he may do with his life - build a house, love a woman, change his son's diaper - he will always remain a jarhead. And all the jarheads killing and dying, they will always be me. We are still in the desert.

Did you try dxdiag to test if directx is installed properly. If not try this:
Go to start >> run >> type DXDIAG then press enter.
Go through all the tests, and see if it gives u any errors under the "Notes" field. 

What directx rendering mode are you using (7.0 or 9.0) ?
Your card kicks ass so ure probably using 9, maybe try 7 and see if you still get the error.
