PK3 files are those that make COD work. They are found in the COD 'Main' folder. To tell if they are corrupt, check their sizes against this list of what they should be:

Correct File sizes for version 1.5:

localized_english_pak0.pk3 167,895,169 bytes
localized_english_pak1.pk3 126,070,475 bytes
localized_english_pak2.pk3 17,592 bytes
localized_english_pak3.pk3 8,501 bytes
localized_english_pak5.pk3 9,544 bytes
pak0.pk3 164,229,067 bytes
pak1.pk3 165,964,103 bytes
pak2.pk3 165,555,454 bytes
pak3.pk3 167,888,227 bytes
pak4.pk3 167,607,183 bytes
pak5.pk3 80,540,215 bytes
pak6.pk3 613,326 bytes
pak8.pk3 1,091,088 bytes
pak9.pk3 18,971,056 bytes
paka.pk3 3,101,786 bytes
pakb.pk3 5,087,181 bytes

If any don't match then they are corrupt. Reinstall COD.

If they do, then reinstall you sound driver.
