I have the same error, I posted in the other preload today thread but we should dedicate this one.

To all that are affected by this error list your specs including os / cpu / vidcard / video drivers

xp sp2 2180

AMD 64 3000+

ATI AIW 9600xt

catalyst 4.8 (upgraded from 4.7's after the error)

Ive included hl2.exe to the dep exclussion list and the firewall. This does not fix it.

Any other bright ideas out there?

Nope, [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\EncodeDivXExt] @="{E9F5B111-CACC-4FD4-81FD-4EB4FD6765A3}" dosn't

exist in my registry.

Ive now deleted all game content from within steam and logged out. I payed a visit to the install dir and noticed that the content was not removed by steam. So I deleted it and rebooted. Launched steam and redownloaded cs source and still get the error. Searching google and MS still.

this is not the same problem... not the exact same problem addressed here?

I can open everything else on my computer fine.... and all of the others STEAM games for that matter.

It's only CS:S source that is causing me that problem

On another post is said to go to your registry and delete something haveing to do with DIVX, but I dont have that in there :(

it's not for the same problem at all... and I don't think it has anything to do with our problem...

go to steampowered.com and send a troubleshooting log in the troubleshooting section....

the more people have this problem, the sooner they'll fix that (I hope ) :(

....but does the game works for you or not??

[Varsity]

I get this frequently when running a local server. Try joining a game with all your settings down low and see what happens.

[Guest bartekpl]

We can't even join a game. This error occurs when we are starting it the first time.

[Guest bartekpl]

Has anyone figured this problem out?

I tried looking for an answer on Steams forum, but they are soo monkey like. They bearly give out any help :(

[djesteban]

nothing yet here :(

[Varsity]

You've got a lot of processes I'll bet. Turn of Winamp and Windowsblinds for a start.

[Guest bartekpl]

Nahh it's not that Varsity. I've been reading the Steam Forum for the past 10 minutes and it seems there are TONS of people that are getting this error. I'll try to find a solution to this.

[Varsity]

How much memory do you have left, anyway?

[Guest bartekpl]

I have 512MB DDR400 Total, and right now I have 241MB avaliable. I doubt it's that because how can i run doom 3 perfectly but not CS:S?

[Otis]

Is everyone getting this error using SP2?

It runs fine on my system (see below). WinXP Pro SP1

[Guest bartekpl]

I HAVE A SOLUTION!!!!!!! ANYONE WANT TO KNOW???????????????????
