How to fix graphics driver incompatible error in Modern Warfare 3

This is a PC-exclusive issue that players can encounter while trying to access the game through Steam or Battle.net. Here is how you can potentially fix this problem to avoid in-game issues like stuttering and Frames Per Second (FPS) drops.

• Exit your game client and navigate to the desktop area.
• Access the graphics card application for your specific hardware (Nvidia or AMD).
• You will need to go to the app's Drivers section and check for updates. Once you find one, download and install the files and let the system complete the entire process.
• If you do not have the required application, you can always visit official websites for the graphics card and search for the latest driver.
• When you find the latest driver update, download the file, extract it inside a destination folder, and run the setup file.
• After the installation is complete, you will have the latest graphics driver installed on your system.

It is important to note that utilizing the GPU application to stay up-to-date with the drivers is the best practice. It is helpful since the app also allows users to automatically download the most recent updates and install them.

Possible reasons

Modern Warfare 3 is a new title yet to be released, so it is possible that the graphics card manufacturers have not released a patch to optimize their GPUs' performance in this title. Such updates usually go live around the final release of the game. This way, your hardware can smoothly run the new game and satisfy its demands.

It is also recommended to keep all your drivers updated in general, as this can prevent other issues as well.
