Im aware that theres a few more threads of this topic floating around here (O RLY?) but ill just explain what problem is occurring in my case.
Mind you that this problem also applies to other source games (Dark Messiah)
When i start up HL2, everythings fine, game loads and i can play ( some minor freezes from time to time but I can live with that). The main problem is that after a while and in certain areas in the game, the screen freezes and the audio keeps repeating itself forever. Its not like it takes a minute... Also, when it does, the only option to get out of it is to turn of my laptop (which isnt really a good thing to do :/ ) And like i said before, this problem also applies to DM. The performance of the game itself is great however and everything is running like a charm until the freeze/crash ofc...
Hopefully someone can help me out with this. Directx9c installed and the driver is not the latest but one version before that (or whatever you call it)
