Hello uturn and welcome to G2G!

Have you tried downloading the file from one of the various dll download sites that there are?
have you installed .NET 2.0?

guys....i found a easy solution for this problem...it works for me...
i've the same problem as you all, i've tired removing .net framework 1.1 2.0 or so...nothing happened, i've downloaded msvcr80.dll and put into system32 nothing happened too....

Solution for me....
When you have auto-run CoD2, keep on pressing install button....ignore those error message keep on trying, and then i susccessed to install it.....hope this can help you lol

I know this is an old thread, and by me posting it might revive an old topic. But the solution in quote fixed my problem! Thank you sooooo much!

Such a simple fix for what seems to be such a complicated problem. I hope this fix will help others looking to revive their old CoD2 playing days like it did mine!

So this thread been going for years, but since there's a recent post, this looks like a good place to post my COD2 problem.

I just bought COD2 new from Amazon after loving the demos. Tried installing the game and get error messages like crazy. Clicking through them like explained on other threads, it starts installing disc #1. It asks for disc #2 and then freezes. I've tried running the install as an administrator and I get a whole new set of error messages.

I've got an HP 6720 with an AMD Phenom 840T Processor (2.90GHz), 6GB of RAM and am running Windows 7 (64-bit)

Thanks in advance for any info you can give me.
Ed
