Hi I brought a copy of call of duty 2 for my new Acer laptop, but it comes up with a direct x error. I've got the latest version of direct x installed. Anyone managed to overcome this problem?

Many thanks

yes I did. from pc world.

It's an honest question, I took my laptop into the service department in pc world the guy there had a look round my files, tried unistalling, then installing the game a few times but I still got the same message. I got a refund and he totally wiped the game off my pc. The problem is I played it on my mates xbox360 yesterday and really want it, so I thought I'd ask if anyone has come accross the same problem and solved it

No you didnt, even though you edited your first post, myself and grumpy knew what you wrote.

I don't have a copy of the game, if any has any help I will put a pic up of the box + receipt.

I can't work out how to download games, thats why I asked.

In response to the only helpful post so far, my model is an Extensa 6600.
The game came with an install for the latest direct x, but no joy, any ideas?
