COD WAW is broken

[ZKM | Mr SMIPHA [S9N]]

I have had this game for years with no issues playing it. Why is not launching all of a sudden? I have updated drivers and all. This is really frustrating makes me wanna throw my alienware out the window. Steam what the heck why can't I play WAW but I can play MW3 no prob?

What have you tried besides updating your drivers? Have you tried verifying the cache, various admin/compatibility settings, reinstalling, making sure non-essential 3rd party software (like an av) is not interfering?

Does your disc based version successfully launch at the present?

Go to the library, right click the game, go to properties, then local content and there should be a button for it.

It may affect your mod though. It scans the game folder and makes sure the needed files match their database and are in the right place, and if any are corrupt or missing it downloads and replaces them. I'm not sure but if your mod added extra files to the game there is a chance it could remove them.

just uploaded a screen shot of my map since it saying i never had this game before. i bought it from best buy

I trust you have it on disc, but if both the non-Steam and Steam versions won't launch on your computer then the issue is somewhere on your end and I can't think off what you should try that wasn't already mention by Teutep or myself that wouldn't also risk your mod
