Try updating your DirectX from here if you haven't : http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&DisplayLang=en

See you have a QX9560 on water. What are you running it at? Mine in sig. What OS are you on?

 

[Caliche]

stock speeds and I'm on Vista 64bit home prem.

I did try updating my DirectX and still get that error.

I hadn't even tried MP COD4 yet on this new rig. Just did and its working for me. Does single player work of for you?

 

[Caliche]

no, reinstalled again and made sure everything across the system was updated.

Did you install the 1.5 patch? I've search on this error and its reported a fair amount but I've not see a simple resolution.

I had same error
error during initialization create2dtexture( $floatz, 1680, 1050, 0, 114) failed 8876086c = invalid call

Fix = I uninstalled & re-installed Nvidia drivers, then disabled sli.

I also edited the config files in
Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\players\profiles\[playername]

config
config_mp

find the line
seta r_multiGpu "1"
and change to
seta r_multiGpu "0"

worked for me.
