Whenever I start MW2 it gives me a black screen. I have tried running in window mode, running as administrator, but it still does not work.

 

It isn't giving a pop up error, how ever the following is found at the end of the console msg screen:

I also deleted the M2Demo folder and Caches file and that did not work either.

AMD Quad Core

Radeon HD 6530D (onboard, I know. but it works!)

had the "recovering lost device" error, had to reinstall the graphics driver - works fine now
