I just uninstalled CoD2 the other day, because I never played the PC version, only the Xbox 360 version.. Hopefully that is fixed soon..

Well I reckon you just have a pirated copy with a licence key that's finally been blacklisted, and you've just overcompensated for your guilt by mentioning a valid CD etc. in your post....

Yeah and I love my uber Laptop





Uninstall it, then reinstall it, I had a problem with Unreal Tournament 03, I uninstalled it, stuck the disk in and installed it again, not hard, try the update if you like, but if it screws up, well then don't use the update, as aren't updates are just there to cure peoples probs, like the FF8 1.2 is only for those really with newer cards.
