Re: Half life 2 work run fully!!!

Hi chezes23. This sounds like a problem with your graphics card drivers. You should get the latest ones from here:

If you are using an Nvidia Card, go here.

If you are using an ATI Card, go here.

Make sure you uninstall all of the old drivers, then re-install the new ones.

Go to resplendence.com and d/l the free whocrashed program. It will identify if it is a driver problem.
