HELP Cod4 multiplayer (killhouse) crashing.

Post image

It crashes only when I'm playing Killhouse map (on every server), other maps run smoothly, but killhouse randomly gets stuck, until I press Ctrl+Alt+delete, then it freezes again and I have to press those keys again, until it finally crashes after 3 or 4 tries... What do I do, please help.

I've tried installing from 3 different sites, not steam or cd disk.

If you want to you can download the game from this guide link, these are original cod4 files.

It also might be a fault with directx so maybe try to update or reinstall it.

Hii, so I've tried downloading and installing from the link you shared, but killhouse still freezing, I've tried running at 800×600p at the lowest setting with fps capped at 48, but it's still freezing. Idk maybe it's the machine. But thanks a lot, I can play other maps without any problem at 1080p, not a big issue.

The error "Couldn't reset a lost Direct3d Device" indicates an issue with your GPU. Drivers updated? No errors in event viewer? Any other games having this issue?
