Windows 10 and Call of Duty 2

[Tally]

Mine doesn't crash, but it kind of bugs me how I have to wait 2-3 minutes for the black screen to go away. Used to work fine on Windows 8.1 with compatibility mode.

Just follow randall's advice: put COD2 into compatibility mode for WinXP SP2 - it launches without any black screen. But you have to minimise the game to desktop, then go back into game, to get your mouse working again. This seems to be a DirectX process layering problem under Win10, but minimising the game corrects it.
