Steam won't start black ops 2 (please help)
When I open black ops 2, the steam windows will show up, saying it's loading, then the window disappear, and the same procress repeats in a loop... What should I do?

I've reinstalled steam but it's still not working...

have you restarted you PC ?.
I just ask as a crashed game .exe in memory could stop another one from loading

as always the 1st thing you should try is turning it off and back on again.

I resolved the problem by opening steam by right clicking it then selected "run as administrator.

Also it didn't worked for me... When I'm starting Zombies, there is a Black Screen and mouse icon changes to "Loading Icon". The Campaing works, but when I am trying to start Zombies/Multiplayer, there's a black screen. Oh, BTW I have Windows 7

Here in 2024 was attempting to launch this game in windows 10 (any mode zombies/ MP or SP. Nothing worked. So I've changed compatibility to windows 7

Set the compatibility options to run as administrator and disabled full screen optimizations.

Suddenly Steam figured it needed some direct x components. And voila it launches. Hope this helps someone.
