With my game Call of Duty, I can play multiplayer works well, but when I try single player, a error message comes up saying "Please insert the correct disk, exit and restart the application. I donwloaded the 1.5v patch that gave me extras and fixed some glitches in the game, but it didn't help. Anyone have any suggestions??

P.S. And yes, I do have the CD in my cd drive when I start the game.

Also have you read the readme that came with the program?


Launch Problems on nVidia® nForce™2 Motherboards

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From the readme.htm:

7. Launch Problems on nVidia® nForce™2 Motherboards

Users who attempt to run the single player portion of Call of Duty™ on a machine with an nVidia® nForce™2 motherboard may encounter an error message that states, "Please insert the correct CD-ROM and select OK to retry." The error message will remain, even if the proper CD is in the drive. The solution to this problem depends on your operating system:


Windows® 98, ME and XP users:

If you encounter this problem on Windows® 98, ME or XP, installing the latest nForce™2 drivers (available from your motherboard manufacturer) will remedy the situation.


Windows® 2000 users:

There is a known incompatibility with Macrovision™'s SafeDisc® (the copy protection mechanism Call of Duty™ employs) and motherboards with the nForce™2 chipset under Windows® 2000. To remedy the situation, do the following:

1) Locate the "My Computer" icon on your computer and right-click it.

2) Choose the "Manage" option.

3) Once the Computer Management program launches, select "Device Manager."

4) In the Device Manager, double-click "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers."

5) Right-click on "nVidia nForce 2™ SPP/IGP ATA Controller" and select "Properties."

6) Click on the "Secondary Channel" tab. If the Select Transfer Mode is set to "BIOS Default," click on the pull-down menu and select "PIO Mode."

7) Close all open windows and restart your machine when prompted.

Call of Duty™ should now launch without incident.


8. Issues With Installer Properly Switching To Disc 2 During Installation

Some users may find that, when they insert Disc 2 of Call of Duty™ in their CD-ROM drive, it will bring up the “splash” screen and not allow the installer to continue. If this happens, open your CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive. Hold down the Left Shift key. Reinsert Disc 2 of Call of Duty™ and keep the Left Shift key depressed until the CD or DVD drive stops reading the CD. This will disable the autoplay function of the drive and allow installation to proceed normally.

That didn't help because I don't think I use that motherboard. Also, my friend had the same problem and he downloaded a patch from the internet. I can't find it, but do you think you have any clue to where it is?
