To those experiencing crashes online; are you guys using SoftTH or a TripleHead2Go?

If you're using SoftTH, it might be the cause of the punkbuster kick, since it uses a d3d9.dll replacement to work its magic.

Dopefish, I just tried to play some CoD4 in triplehead now that I have got Windows 7. But the fixer doesn't change the aspect ratio of FOV to make the game look good. However, it does make all of the HUD elements go to the center screen.

I have tried computability modes and running the executables with administrative privileges on both the fixer and on the singleplayer executable.

I do hope you can come up with an idea or two to make this work out.

It should work fine in W7 still. I use W7 RC and it works.

Someone else was having a problem getting it to work (but not related to W7 I believe) and his solution was to start the fixer after COD4 was already running. You can try that and see if it makes a difference.

The fixer will only correct the aspect ratio. The FOV is up to you to adjust via the console.

I guess try starting the fixer afterwards and testing that first. If that doesn't work, I'll have to think of other reasons that would possibly stop it from working.

Well, what I meant to say was that the view of the game didn't change, just the the HUD.

I'll try that, I hope it works. I already reinstalled and everything.

UPDATE
I tried opening the fixer after loading up a campaign, using both the methods for 1.7 SP. Still no dice. Although nothing changed either so I guess that could be a good thing?
