Try and uninstall and reinstall might have a corrupt file. Have you patched it or modded it at all?

and uninstall the game with revo uninstaller, it get rid of any leftovers of the game like what Connor said

This game was really poorly tested for the PC. its almost a joke or like meh lets just put out the game people wil buy it since its a Call of Duty game.

I've played it at my friend's house after he got it to work... (lol) and its a cool game I just won't be getting it.

@acheworld
you can't play online without the latest patch... so what does it with the latest patch that makes it so unstable?

I had exactly the same problem, so I did as you told, I installed the new DirectX, updated my drivers, then uninstalled with revo, but I think something went wrong while uninstalling.
When I uninstalled, I wanted to install again, but my disc said I didnt even UNinstall the game. so I pressed uninstall, *you still following it? :P*, and I keep getting this error:
"error 1719.Windows installer service could not be accessed. Contact your support personnel to verify that it is properly registered and enabled."
Can somebody help me?
