Not sure how many people use the Steam Version of COD5 as I do, but their patches can take forever.

Here is a link to a work around that will let you manually install the 1.4 patch and play online while we wait for the Steam Update.

Code:

[quote]This works so you dont have to wait a few days to patch to release on steam. When it does, you simply reverse the changes and use the steam patch. However try this at your own risk Click on Start > Run type in regedit press ok click on edit find type in call of duty WAW alternatively follow this route HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Activision\Call of Duty World at War If you have a 64-bit operating system this is located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Activision \Call of Duty World at War. Right Click Digital Distribution rename to Not Digital Distribution Thats it, now you can install the 1.4 patch. When steam releases the patch you simply rename this back to Digital Distribution. This works for me and I still have my multiplayer profile. [update] You cannot play solo/coop after doing this! error message says Insert DVD, so you must wait for steam patch to play solo/coop
