How to FIX CRAHES STUTTERS in MW3 - Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 PC

[@Pevoidzz]

I appreciate the video, but the fact that Activision even has these problems is a joke. We download 200GB, which is an insane storage size for a game like this. To basically have to RIP our PCS to the bone, or it crashes. People have 5k+ PCS that run other games in Ultra with zero problems, but CoD you can have a 10k PC on minimum and a background activity causes it to crash? Nah, I’m just sticking to console. It’s a joke how their coding is.

[@ChieffinOnReefer]

Funny part is mw3 kept crashing my console thought it was overheating clean it up reassembled still the same thing played RDR2 ,Apex & GTAV for hours no issue I start my console start mw3 play for a bit then crashes. So I decided to build a PC with hope that things would be different boy was I wrong

[@YoDeevo]

when i enable "run program as administrator" the game wont open

[@Boxer_crew]

The fact that I can only get into the joining tdm/game/round before my game crashes is insane

[@Richard68434]

same thing for me. "game" crashing within 5 seconds of loading into a map. have you found a fix yet?

[@guillermotrujillo2345]

[@luiwtf]

bs i just formatted my whole pc due to bsod and mw3 still crashes upon loading into a game!

[@xplagu3x67]

I have 2 issues It’s strange when I’m playing cod I get about 250 to 300+ FPS but when I load into sub base ranked it drops to 60 to 80 no idea why and then the 2nd issue is my game only crashes on one map all the other maps it’s fine but that one map makes me crash and the other map makes me loose all my FPS any idea why!?

[@Sengh1999]

My game keeps crashing still. I have a 4090 with a i9-12900. I noticed my cpu usage being 100%. is that normal?

[@mrnic5guy]

Yea yea totally normal man your good make sure you keep that card 250 300 degrees hot too Jk you got some optimization in need

[@lilfellauk]

when you set priority to high for cod.exe you will have to do this each time you started the game each time you run the game it will auto set to a lower setting and you will have to re set priority to high for cod.exe again. hope this helps some people out..

[@bugzillafication]

my game won't launch if I change properties on the cod.exe

[@Bee2TheRian]

Same.. this is so frustrating. Especially when i constantly get crashes in zombies

[@prestonlewis2949]

Dude same, and when I took it off it launched but then it just black screen and repeats the same sound

[@hunttoo]

same bro

[@DracoRay]

For some users depending on how you installed your Windows OS and your windows profile. The administrator settings will not work or are not necessary.

[@nightstepstation7189]

Do it for the launcher instead of cod.exe

[@pomp0107]

does this work for the dreaded windows directx crash???? i get it constantly on my legion laptop running geforce 4070...now Diablo 4 is crashing on me...help!

[@fanatyxxx]

I struggled with the game crashing for 3 days. I tried everything, but I replaced the cable with HDMI2.1 and it helped me because I had an old DVI and the game crashed due to refreshing.

[@ThotSlayerSean]

I’m gonna try that did it work out?

[@ysljay9061]

I have a 4080 ryzen 9 never crashed in mw2 but now I’m crashing in warzone 3 I get about 3 games then it crashes everyyyyy time plzzzzz help

[@dwhipp7661]

So I’ve been having the same problem with my Ryzen 9 7900X. I’ve read that if your CPU and Ram speeds are too high, anything over 5,000 MHz, the game and or computer will crash due to the system thinking it is overclocking. Hopefully they fix it soon!!

[@trevorsanders4143]

I’m getting 3 fps in the menu…. I redownload the game and it fixed it then it started crashing every few games or so

hello guys, download this old AMD driver, because for me it is a stable driver 23.11.1

[@ZaxzuYT]

The only mode that crashes for me is zombie when i get off the plane

[@downsouth1678]

Thanks man , I think it's the overlay for me that was messing up the game , it's so weird

[@DracoRay]

This has been happening for years, overlays and certain software will WRECK havoc with this poorly coded game. specifically NVidia or discord overlay

[@Stefan-lx2pr]

Thank you for the Video, but that doesn’t fix the DirectX12-Error…

[@RadicalBrosef]

lmk if u found a fix

[@StoicBehavioR]

This all great until CoD releases an update or patches then you’re back to square one watching this video again, again, and again. Verifying integrity file never works in steam. Which probably is the majority of people crashes are of. I usually have to make a dummy file copy and paste everything that’s in the HQ folder uninstall and delete. Reinstall game pause and uninstall then copy and paste everything from dummy fold back into the new HQ folder then reinstall for the validation. It work with zero crashes until patches and update come along.

[@david1621]

Also remember to check your RAM usage 8 gigs is not enough the game uses about 15 gigs of ram

[@apcetojako8219]

Bro i have 16gb ram i5 10400f and rx 6600 8gb vram everything is good 100 80 fps but the game sttuter crazy how do i fix them i change thermal paste on cpu and deep cooler bought do you think i get sttuter cuz my pcie motherboard is 3.0 and gpu 4.0 u think my gpu is not working full power?

[@xlordsonic]

My game crashes all the time and I only play zombies, so I’m always losing my operators

[@maes.chucko]

as soon as i enable the checkmark "run the program as an administrator" my game stops launching, no matter what i do it just doesnt start anymore, any help?

[@DracoRay]

Leave that part off, some users depending on how your windows was setup and installed with your profiles this will affect it. Dont use admin mode in this case it will launch again.

[@maes.chucko]

alright ive done this and everything else in every video i could find but still crashes, game sucks for that@@DracoRay

Battle net if u click on retail after show in file explorer scroll down to cod and do the same thing u did to the launcher as pretty sure thats needed aswell as the way u do it its for the launcher im on windows 10 and started crashing after the launch of season 1 i seen another video and they did both the launcher and the file inside the retail folder and so far so good for me

[@snipez9637]

None of these worked for me but what helped was allowing access in firewall exceptions and reverting Windows 11 back to windows 10. No more crashes!

[@bkid1776]

This helped you? And what helps with the game saying whoops looks like something broke. It did this to me on battlenet during a scan and repair. Now I can still play but I crash in the firing range in mid game in ranked causing penalties. Its so annoying. I tried all the Ethernet settings and everything possible and it still crashes . Also my game files are broken and I dont wanna delete my progress but I want to fix that

I’m testing here if anyone can give me a tips or help figured out what’s wrong after I upgrade my cpu to Ryzen 5900x from 3700x . It’s absolutely no fps difference after I upgraded , tried switch to 1080p but no increase in fps at all . Is my 3060 12GB to weak for the 5900x ?

[@DracoRay]

I did the exact same thing I upgraded from a 3700x to a 5900x and I saw minimal if any FPS gains in Multiplayer but did see a little more FPS in Warzone. SO I upgraded to 3070 RTX and now a 3080 RTX and that made a huge difference.

[@mbbb169]

Could be something in the config files. I remember there being one specific thing to change in that file having to do with number of cores your CPU has
