COD: Ghosts wont start
Just downloaded cod: ghost on steam and once it finished I went to play and it wont start up at all.
My computer stats are:
Intel Core i5-3550
RAM: 8.00 GB
64-bit operating system

Not sure if that's everything but I know I meet the requirements but can't play. Any help would be appreciated and if you could go in detail about how to fix because I'm not the best at computers. Thanks

In the Steam client click on 'Help' then 'System Information' and copy whats in there and paste it here, we can then see whats going on.

I have noticed your graphics card drivers are out of date, they will need updating. Im not sure how togo about updating the ATI drivers (as I not owned a Ati card for aleast 6 years).

http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/downloads.aspx DRIVER SITE

http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win8-64.aspx DRIVER SET YOU NEED is Catalyst Software Suite.


OR I Just remembered. Click on STEAM in the steam client (top left cornor) then click on 'Check for Video Driver Updates...'

I believe you need to
