Call of Duty 4 on Windows 7, is anyone being abble to play?


Recommended Posts

Hello i have the pre beta version of windows 7 running and i decided to play COD 4 on it, but i am having dificulties, punkbuster keeps kicking me out of the servers, normally it is 3 codes, it says kicked by unknown windows API funtion 131134, 131134 and 131136, i don?t know what to do, when i deactivate PB it works fine butwith that i will not have a lot of choice in servers.

I tried uninstalling the game, running antivirus and Windows defender, also i turned all the software for not working in compability mode as i saw in some forums. None of this worked. I also logged a ticket in the PB site but they don?t give support to this version of Windows 7.

BTW is anyone playing in Windows 7?

Thanks

Daniel

Um....why?

Windows 7 is a pre-beta....it probably doesn't evebeginb> to contain all the API's to do ANY of this.

This is why they don't like to pre-release things.

Do you have Windows Vista installed too? You could use that..

You're basically out of luck: PunkBuster tries to check various places in the Windows DLLs to verify that there is no 'modifications' in your Windows DLLs.

These checks are very precise and very sensitive to the version of the OS.

That will be solved when the PunkBuster software will be updated to support Windows 7 but there is very very very very little chance that PB will be updated to work with an alpha snapshot of Windows 7.

I am running windows 7, same version 64 bit. I can't even seem to get CoD4 to load... everything else works like a charm though.

Any ideas???

It says the application failed to initialize properly.

As mentioned earlier, try using a stable OS.

Stop using Windows 7! Wait until the beta comes out to start torturing it with games!

Gosh, pre-beta and already subduing it to playing CoD4...

that exactly what i said few week ago and now it happened !

just wait till they start to bush a pre-beta of windows and till us it is ME III

These pricks have diminished the purpose of a pre-beta... it's for testing purposes, not playing games. If you said, "I want to see CoD4 works on Windows 7" that would be a moderately adequate reason for doing so, but saying "I want to play CoD4 on Windows 7" is like making a baby work. Point is, it's not prepared for Windows 7, not yet, so stick to Windows Vista until then.

So many wise people...

If we wanted to use a "stable"OS we could be using our "Stable" versions of Vista, get out of here if you are not going to help troll...

Wink :)

Oh my god.

there is NO WAY IT WILL WORK UNLESS EVENBALANCE UPDATES PUNKBUSTER TO SUPPORT WIN7!

and that

is

not

going to happen

for a pre beta

operating system.

Stop acting like a little brat.

The purpose of the PDC builds of Windows 7 is for the software developers to start making drivers and applications. Not for little kids playing games.

I'm quite glad some people understand this!

    • If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
    • 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 "to fund healthcare and tuition" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Who do you think you are talking about, some COMMUNIST? We are better than them, doG bless Murica!!! p.s. I'm from a country where government does exactly that, i.e. not form US.
    • Apparently not. I know it is on Edge for business at the moment, but how long will it be before it become on the home version of Edge?
