COD MW2 Launch crash

Legacy Games Tech Support

This is what worked for me with latest NVIDIA game ready drivers on an RTX2060 and Win 10 1909

  1. Open msconfig, start in safe mode with networking, reboot.
  2. In safe mode, launch game, change graphics settings to windowed.
  3. Open msconfig, disable safe mode, reboot.
  4. Launch game, select no for ‘optimized settings menu’.
  5. Manually adjust graphics settings to preferred and back to full screen.

Seems I should’ve just bought MW2RC on PS4 at launch, this is quite lame. at least i can still play MW2 pc on steam…

yes, crash in playing game without any error code, suddenly leave the game.

Thanks, it helped. I did not expect such a problem right at the start of the game.

is there another way besides the safe mode method to getting this fixed? is this something they might patch soon?
i am having trouble getting into safemode on my computer and have no way to play this currently and am kind of regretting buying it at this point.

After work I’ll try to find the default saved files after safe mode run. I can post for everyone who has troubles.

Hey there,

This is a game client error rather than a problem with the installer. We at bBlizzard just work on installation/patching here. You want to contact activision for help with this. They’ll have better ideas for what may cause problems with their game client.
