All right. Well, I have been playing this game on my laptop since the day it was released on the shelves. So far, not a single problem arose. But out of my curiousity, I wanted to install a mod (LtSpeirsrealismMod) into my COD2 main folder.

At that time, I didn't know how to install mods into the game. But I was so dumb and stupid to reinstall my game. So I uninstalled my game and then reinstalled it. Everything worked out fine in the installation process.

But when I attempted to go on Multiplayer, there was an error that said:
FATAL ERROR:
Error during Initialization:
EXE_ERR_MSS_INIT_FAILED_MP

I have a lot of automatically installed mods from playing in different online servers before, but a moderator in another site told me that possibly deleting these modifications would help. But I disagree. I believe it has nothing to do with the mods.

I tried almost every possible solution for this. From System Restore - Nothing. Uninstall and Reinstalling - Nothing, but if I try to uninstall it, the Uninstall wizard window would open and a blue bar would appear representing its progress. But once it reaches the middle, it freezes, and the whole process stops and disappears. I checked my PC for viruses or any kinds of threats, they were scanned and dealt with.

Now I try to play the game to see if the viruses were the one causing this. But nothing helped. The only choice I have left is using my system recovery disc (Which I really don't want to do)

Please help me out. I would appreciate any kind of help to this problem which has been preventing me from playing for over 2 weeks. :whistling:

look for mss32.dll in the call of duty 2 folder. it should be 362kb dated 8/11/2005. if you right click and choose properties, go to the version tab the info should be 3.0.0.0 miles sound system.

If everything matches then try this;

start/run and type in "regsvr32 c:\program files\call of duty2\mss.dll"

use the full path to the file and leave out the quotes.
