Experiencing DirectX errors specifically in Call of Duty: Warzone, while multiplayer modes function correctly, is a common issue among players. To address this problem, consider the following steps:

1. **Verify System Requirements**: Ensure your PC meets the minimum system requirements for Warzone. Inadequate hardware can lead to DirectX errors.

2. **Update DirectX**: Warzone requires at least DirectX 11. To check your current version:
- Press `Win + R`, type `dxdiag`, and press Enter.
- In the DirectX Diagnostic Tool, view your DirectX version under the System tab.
- If outdated, update via Windows Update:
- Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Check for updates.

3. **Run Warzone in DirectX 11 Mode**: Switching to DirectX 11 can resolve compatibility issues:
- Open the Battle.net launcher and select Warzone.
- Click on Options (gear icon) > Game Settings.
- Check "Additional Command Line Arguments" and enter `-D3D11`.
- Click Done to save changes.

4. **Repair Game Files**: Corrupted game files can cause crashes:
- In the Battle.net client, select Warzone.
- Click Options > Scan and Repair > Begin Scan.

5. **Update Graphics Drivers**: Outdated or corrupt drivers can lead to DirectX errors:
- Press `Win + R`, type `devmgmt.msc`, and press Enter to open Device Manager.
- Expand Display adapters, right-click your graphics card, and select Update driver.
- Choose "Search automatically for drivers" to let Windows find updates.

6. **Disable Background Applications**: Other programs, especially those with overlays like Discord or GeForce Experience, can interfere:
- Right-click the taskbar and select Task Manager.
- Under the Processes tab, end tasks for unnecessary applications.

7. **Adjust In-Game Settings**: Certain settings can cause instability:
- Disable On-Demand Texture Streaming:
- In Warzone, go to Settings > Graphics > Quality.
- Turn off On-Demand Texture Streaming.
- Change Upscaling/Sharpening:
- In the same menu, adjust the Upscaling/Sharpening setting to a different option.

8. **Reinstall Graphics Drivers**: If issues persist, a clean driver installation may help:
- Use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to remove current drivers.
- Download the latest drivers from your GPU manufacturer's website.
- Install the new drivers and restart your PC.

If the problem continues after these steps, consider reaching out to Activision Support or consulting community forums for additional assistance.

It's a game problem. All the solutions around the net don't work. Tried them all. Had no problems during beta and the first launch week. Then the first bigger patch came and i got crashes every 30-60 minutes. They have to fix the game.
