COD: Black Ops Issue

[Gwadien]

Getting a problem with COD even offline - Every time I play the single player, I get to a certain bit where my game seems to minimize itself and when I try to get back on, the mouse is bound to the middle of a black screen - if anyone can help with this it'd be greatly appreciated, and yes, I have tried googling it Cheers

This is why i prefer consoles these days none of that rubbish to deal with, hope you get it sorted soon.

Right then, got a little update.. - Updated drivers etc, didn't help - it randomly crashes so i've done the first 10 mins of the first mission about 10 times now, getting pretty sick of it, I've had a new Logitech Keyboard+Mouse that came with some software - I'm currently on XP, and this software is using a thing that i've seen on Apple + Windows 7 computers - Where you can minimize your game, but you see smaller windows of the programmes that you have open - comprende? - I have a feeling that it's Logitechs fault, and that Black Ops simply doesn't like being minimized?

My brother is kind of having a similar problem, after playing online for 5-10 minutes it just freezes.. not tried singleplayer and it seems quite a few people are having this problem (PS3 and 360 users too).. might be the same problem as the singleplayer one ..

No worries, I fixed it!
