Make sure to update Punk Buster, and Call of Duty 4, then try again.

Heh, it doesn’t work. I was playing CoD4 like two months ago, but i felt like i want to reinstal the game. I did it, and than i had this problem :/ Hell knows why i can’t play it any more, i mean, it’s ‘awaiting connection error’ but if i played before, than why dan’t play now -.-’ I think i’ll reinstal my system.

Check to see if you have any “performance apps” running, and try updating from the punkbuster website.

When I go into multiplayer for CoD4 on the pc first it says unable to intialize punk buster, so i go to the main menu, then options, and then multiplayer options, then i click enable punkbuster, and then i go to the multiplayer main menu, and then i click join server, and pick a game. . . then it says awaiting connection 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10 and then 11 then the screen is black and in a moment say “server connection timed out” please help.

this is Infinity ward’s problem, they broke the master server, it seems to be affecting 90% of the cod4 population…
