Default Did not shut down properly??

Hi guys i was trying to play call of duty tonight. I popped in the cd and hit multiplayer then i get a window that says this program was not shut down properly and it recomends that i start again in safe mode no matter if i click yes or no I still get another window following that one and it says that i should send an error report to microsoft and wether i do or not nothing happens it just closes out of call of duty and thats it. I tryed system restore, misconfig, and i downloaded the new patch for cod and the latest drives for my video card. Any suggestions?

Default Hi There

I think what id do is copy your saved games if you have any to new folder and then uninstall the game and reinstall it.

if it does happen in other games, I would be tempted to say it's the PSU or video card
