call of duty help
 

i backed up and installed call of duty ran the no cd patch 1.4 but when ever i try playing the game an error comes up saying. "couldnt load default cfg make sure call of duty is run from the correct folder" anyone know what i need to do?

hope this works
 

This error means the game can’t find its \Main directory. This problem can occur if you have installed the game in the root drive (for example C:\). If this occurs, reinstalling the game in a subdirectory of the root drive will solve the issue.
it worked for me btw :D

it installed to my C:\ program files and it didnt work. what should i do?

Can CoD be backed up?
 

OK, I'm somewhat of a newbie on game disc protection so this question has me baffled. Yes, I own a legitimate retail CoD disc. Trying to avoid using the original disc as much as possible, I copied Disc 1 using Alcohol with settings for SafeDisc protections. But just as the original posted indicated, after installing from the back up, I get the same "can't load Default Cfg" and no, the game is not installed to the root folder but rather the default folder suggested during the install.

If I re-install using the factory original disc, I can use the back-up to authenticate the CD and the game runs just fine. So obviously Alcohol is on the right track but is still missing something. Any suggestions on how to create a legitimate back-up?
