Problem in-game

[The_Probe]

I have a problem when playing in a low-grav server.

When i join the game i get about 2 mins of play time before the attached error occurs.

If anyone could help with this most annoying problem i would greatly appreciate it.

Note: as yet, i have not tested to see if this error occurs on regular gravity maps.

What kind of video card do you have?

I have a NVidia GeForce 6200 TurboCache

May be the map. Try playing in other maps and see if you get the problem. It says DX8, so maybe if you forced a dx9 via console on it, it might not happen (although expect a huge fps loss)

Thanks for the help guys.

Found out what was wrong.

Quote for Steam website:

Recently there have been some issues with Source engine games and certain Anti-Virus applications. These issues can cause game crashes and prevent the Steam Community overlay from functioning.

- AVG 7.5 and NOD32 have both been confirmed to cause crashes with Source engine games. Here are some examples of the symptoms you will see as a result of this issue:

1) A warning message telling you to reduce your screen resolution
2) A error message about failing to lock the vertex buffer
3) The game hanging with steam.exe at 100% utilization (or 50% utilization on a dual core, or 25% utilization on a quad core).
4) A hang while connecting to servers

If you are running either of these Anti-Virus programs then they need to be fully uninstalled.

- Kaspersky anti-virus can prevent the in-game overlay from working correctly. Kaspersky has provided a work-around that can be found here:
