Hello to all

I found the solution, u will get ur cod4 crashed if u r using xfire for launching the game or if u already used it once and xfire is running in backround, it will still crashes, first att all try to exit xfire and try then, if the problem is still there u have to let pb services to run on desktop, set full control, after that is done u have to instal pbsvc again, and download pb files for Cod4 cuz Punkbuster is not supporting cod4 anymore, when u copy files to pb file of cod4 problem should be solved, those guys from Microsoft are not even tryin to help...

hope I helped, it workked for me

    I checked this setting on my PC.  Both .NET Framework settings are already selected.  One if for 3.5 and the other is for 4.5.  Believe me, I have loaded/unloaded several different drivers, both video and audio to try and resolve the issue, to no avail.  And now, I try the server mentioned above and everything works just fine.

    I tried your server this morning and found that I am NOT getting kicked.  I wish others knew what you have done to resolve this issue.  I went back to one I normally play FOW....and still get kicked with the message you indicated.  Very frustrating.  I guess you will find me on you server.  thanks.

    Hi

    As a owner of a COD4 game servers all our members that had window 8 including my self had the same problem you would play on the server for 1-2 minutest only to get the following error iw3mp.exe has stooped working.

    We have resolved this problem by making changes to our Game Server (punk buster is still active!)

    so far all our admins that have windows 8 have not been kicked out.

    Our game server IP is 27.50.71.232:28931 (AU) so until iw3mp is officially resolved you are more that welcome to play on our .S:S. Clan server.

    If the above post breaches any conduct rules please remove this post.
