Call of Duty Modern Warefare 2 install problem. Sorry if this has been covered before in another thread. I am new to Call of Duty 2 weeks, and ½ a week with the Steam site with modern warfare 2, which I have not learnt to navigate properly.

For Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on the PC, a GameFAQs Answers. Restart steam once, verify the integrity of the files (I had two missing files) and then boot it. Oct 7, 2012 - whenever i try to pull up the game call of duty modern warfare it says. So i decided to see if i was missing some files in my MW2 folder, i saw.

I have Call of Duty 4 Modern Warefare installed and working fine on a windows 7 operating system. I have been trying to install Call of Duty Modern Warefare 2 on the same system. However I can't get it to play. First let me say I wish to play in single player mode. I am loading Steam from the disk with the internet connected with an active user account.

Steam also automatically updated itself. Earlier I tried downloading Steam from the web site and could not get it to run. I am not sure which of the web sites is the genuine one, perhaps a number.

After installing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 from the disk, Steam wants to update a ~11 Gb file which I understand to be the size of Call of Duty modern warefare 2. I read on the net but not in the Steam forum that someone did this and the program did not work. This is a very large file for me to download. I would only do this if absolute necessary I have had a number of Error messages, such as: “Win 32 Error 32, The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.” Or “Error: delete of Steam.exe failed, Win 32 Error 5, Access denied” I have done my best to uninstall and delete the program as best I could. Using the program and features in the Control Panel, So I can start a new Installation.

If all fails I will be stuck with Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare, which is not so bad. I hope I can find this thread again if there is a useful reply. Thank you for the advice.

I Reinstalled Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Then in 'Steam' Under the title 'All Games', I right clicked Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, clicked Properties. Under the Tab 'Local Files' I found ' Verify Integrity of Game Cache'.

I left click this. A box popped up. 'Validating Steam Files -100% complete. 'All files successfully validated'. I closed the box. Tried to run Call of duty: Modern Warfare 2, single player.

Steam indicated under Heading 'All games'. Conext 700 avr battery. Call of Duty: Modern War. 0% Updating ~ 300KB/s. Steam wants to download the entire ~ 11 GB file. Steam seams not to recognise the installation from disk. I have limited download capacity, also on another forum, someone explained they allowed 'Steam' to do this.

When they tried to run the program the same thing happened again, Steam wanted to download the entire program again. There wasn't a resolution to this issue on the other forum. Steam seams to me, for some reason not to acknowledge the file, though I am far from a computer expert. I appreciate any help expecially those who have posted help up to now. If there is no resolution I will just have to be happy with Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare. 'Then in 'Steam' Under the title 'All Games', I right clicked Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, clicked Properties. Under the Tab 'Local Files' I found ' Verify Integrity of Game Cache'.
