Re: half life 2 crashes on loading screen [RESOLVED]

hi,
I have other crashes like:"failed to lock vertex buffer in CMESHDX8::LockVertexBuffer" and sometimes it crashes to desktop.
i updated all my hardwars and still have the same problem,and I need help cuz I didn't play it since I installed it(note:my version of HL2 is a non-steam version)
my PC:
1 GB ram
VGA GeForce 7300 512MB
CPU intel 3.2 GHz

thanks.

Hi and welcome to the forum,
Just out of interest, where did you get the non-steam version from?

Make sure you have the latest NVIDIA drivers. You can get them from my sig.

As far as I am aware, the only copies of HL2 that do not use Steam are pirated.
We do not provide support for pirated games, please read the forum rules.

This thread will be closed. If I am incorrect and you can show me where you have purchased the game from (PM), I will reopen the thread.
