    Steam Client Update

    You have computer issues. Its not Valve's fault your game is crashing. If you are having a problem with Source, its because your computer is messed up somehow. It could be: Driver issues, Bad installation, Windows XP software issues, corrupt hard drive, RAM went bad... whatever it is, its...

    Prodigy is coming...

    WOW... very detailed and so much different looking from the original, love how everything looks! Glad to see the Valve team pushing out more maps! Like everyone else I would love to see Nuke, Inferno, Train, Militia, Siege and Torn... I really miss those alot, Siege is probably the most fun...

    Graphic Bugs with X800 XT

    Here is what to do: 1. Uninstall the ATI drivers, remove them all... go to C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\Unistall (or something similar, I'm at work) and run the uninstall application there. Download the new 4.12 beta's. Restart your computer, install the new drivers, restart again...

    Will Hl2 Run on My Comp

    Well the problem with intergrated graphics is an issue that really needs to be addressed by the people that sell them in their computers... its not fair to the user to sell such a cheap grapics solution, they should offer a low-end AGP card instead, except they want to save a few bucks here and...

    Will Hl2 Run on My Comp

    Find out if you can add an AGP card to your computer, Half-Life 2 will not run well AT ALL on that card. My girlfriend's computer is a dell with the same Intel Intergrated graphics card and that thing would barely run Counter-Strike 1.6 let alone anything running on Source. I would not buy...

    light-textures are FUBAR!

    Seems like you are running the game in an earlier version of Direct X... Make SURE you are running it at DX 9 level... lights will look at that with DX 6... not sure why it would happen though.
