Can't update Call Of Duty 4 using Impulse

from Stardock Forums

Hi! I've added call of duty 4 to impulse using the "Detect Application..." feature, i didn't buy the product through impulse, but i have a retail box and an activision serial. Is it possible to update cod4 using impulse if i didn't buy it THROUGH impulse, because it keeps coming up saying i need to enter the serial when i try to update, and when i try to enter the serial, it ays that it isn't recognized by impulse... *sigh*

Thanks.

I do not believe you can do that as you did not purchase the application via Impulse.

Impulse will only know about serials purchased via it.

No.  You'll need to patch the game manually.  I would suggest right clicking and hiding the application in Impulse to avoid fture warnings about updates.
