hi, ive just got COD 5 and installed the game. when i try opening it, i get the error:

"error during initialization: Unhandled exception caught"

how can i fix this. ive seens some solutions on the net for this but its for vista and i am using XP. please give instructions for XP, not vista please. thanks

Hi, I'll mark as open to encourage a response from those in the know

Hi zkm1223,

Is this a bought or downloaded copy of the game? Because I am aware of issues with non-bought copies...

its downloaded but ive seen on other sites people who have bought the game are having the same problem. i think its a common problem with the game

Thanks for being honest, although due to the rules of the site I can't help you here.

I'll set you on your way tho': Cain's Lair Forums - View Single Post - Fix For “Error during initialization: Unhandled exception caught”
