People are saying on youtube they have perfect PCs and also it's the ONLY game(cod4) that makes this kind of freeze people would misunderstood as RAM and GPU problems. Even I though that but I tested my machine and upgraded ram and still the same (however if it is GPU overheating it's is not yet fully clear)
One guy had a brand new alienware PC and he had the same problem right there.
Discuss. (more info on what was I doing before is in video description in cod4 freeze video , it's linked video response , and the old thread is http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=104166 )
UPD1
When I updated Realtek HD drivers , the problem was immediately more frequent , and it also froze in youtube full screen view when I was watching 3Dgameman through his site's embedded video. Weird. The GPU is out now, at least for me , next one is definitely Realtek onboard sound chip (maybe it's just too much for him to handle the load?)
EDIT: March 2010.
Some of the stuff above might be out of date (or we eliminated some supspects , GPU is one of them ) , I had problems for a year before actually posting all of it into this threads (and the other about cod4) so I might be wrong on some thing, I hope not , but better to read the whole thread if you link this issue to others who are experiencing similar problems , what is common in all this games cod4 , MW2 and lately also BC2 , they are all multiplatform games , while cod4 stands out as the most true PC version it does have some console stuff (how did the FOV 65 xbox habbit got into the PC ? )
Report if links stop working.
More edits will be coming , it's a long thread so I will make proper summary.
