Activision hasn’t confirmed what caused this error to show up, but many people are speculating it has something to do with the latest COD: MW2 update. This error only recently started to appear, so this is definitely believable.

The first step we recommend is to update your GPU drivers, especially if you have an NVIDIA graphics card. A new NVIDIA driver just dropped yesterday, and it addresses some issues about COD: MW2. Make sure to update as soon as possible.

If you’re still having issues, the next step to try is to scan and repair your installation.
