I get this error when I try running the game!

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.

I posted that problem too in another thread but no solution...

I have

intel mobo

intel P4 3GhZ HT

1gig RAM

radeon 9800XT

catalyst 4.8

I don't get it..... and I cleaned format not long ago with a slipstreamed sp2 install

really ****ed by this... ohh and I sended a troubleshooter over the steampowered.com website.... so anyone who have that problem maybe should do that too....

if anyone get a fix.... please let us know here!!!!

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 ) :(

    • ChromeOS M137 goes stable, bringing new Face Control policy and more by David Uzondu Google has brought ChromeOS M137 to the stable channel, and it includes a few focused updates for users and IT admins. A key change is a new policy for managing big groups of Chromebooks. The face control accessibility tool, which Google also updated back in ChromeOS M135, now gets a vital control for managers. A new policy called FaceGazeEnabled lets them switch the feature on or off across a whole school or company. The update also brings a new audio feature called crosstalk cancellation. It aims to create a better sound experience using just the Chromebook's built-in speakers. The software processes audio to make it seem like it is surrounding your head, not just coming from two small points. This tries to copy the feel of a surround sound system or good headphones. Any audio gets a boost, but you will notice it most when watching movies or playing games with directional sound. More accessibility tools have arrived, too. ChromeVox now has a direct keyboard shortcut, Search + O + C, that displays spoken text as braille captions on a connected display. For the poor souls in IT, troubleshooting got a little less painful as well. A new event-based log collection system, when enabled by an admin, will automatically upload relevant logs when something specific fails, like an OS crash or a botched update. Instead of digging through mountains of data, administrators get targeted reports sent straight to them. Here's how to enable it: Turn on the Device system log upload setting. Turn on OS update status reporting—For the Report device OS information setting, select OS update status. Turn on device telemetry reporting on crash information—For the Report device telemetry setting, select Crash information. Google also keeps things sane by limiting these targeted uploads to just twice a day per device. As usual, the update is rolling out slowly. If you do not see ChromeOS M137 for your machine yet, just be patient. This phased release lets Google find and address any issues before the update gets to everyone.
    • LG gram Book 15U50T: Is this lightweight laptop the right upgrade for you? by Paul Hill If you’re in the UK looking for a new mid-range laptop that won’t feel underpowered, check out the LG gram Book 15U50T now because it’s at its all-time lowest price on Amazon UK thanks to a 14% discount from its £699.99 RRP. You can get it now for just £599.99 (Buying link at the end). At this price, the laptop definitely makes this mid-range option much more appealing, it’s also pretty new having only come out in January 2025, so you’re definitely getting more value for your money. The delivery is free and will take a few days to arrive unless you take advantage of a Prime member trial and get it next-day in time for Father’s Day. LG gram Book 15U50T: Key features and who it's for The LG gram Book 15U50T features a 15.6-inch Full-HD (1920x1080) anti-glare IPS display, making it ideal for use in well-lit areas as you won’t see yourself staring back. It’s powered by an Intel Core i5 processor (1334U), 16GB of RAM, and has a very fast 512GB NVMe Gen4 SSD. In my opinion, the storage might be a bit tight for some users; however, the device comes with two M.2 slots if you want to upgrade the storage. The LG gram Book 15U50T is ideal for students or professionals who need a device to carry with them out and about. It has an ultra-lightweight design and weighs just 1.65kg - that’s not too far off a similarly sized MacBook Air, but for a fraction of the cost. In terms of ports, there is an HDMI port, two USB-A ports, and two USB-C ports. There's also a 3.5mm headphone jack if you need to plug in headphones. Other noteworthy details about this laptop include that it's running Windows 11 Home with Copilot integration, it has a HD webcam with a privacy shutter, it uses Dolby Atmos audio for immersive sound, and it has a unique feature called gram Link for multi-device (including Android and iOS) connectivity. Should you buy it? If you are a student or a professional that won’t be doing heavy gaming, or using other super intensive applications, this laptop is a solid pick. It’s lightweight - so easy to carry around, it has an anti-reflective screen - so good in well-lit environments; and it features upgradeable storage slots if 512GB is not enough space. On the downside, this laptop has a mid-range processor that could limit your ability to use high-end professional tools. Another thing I’m not really a fan of here is how opaque LG has been with the battery life. As a portable laptop, you’re obviously going to want to take it on the go where you don’t have a charger handy, but all LG says about the battery is that it has a capacity of 51Wh. According to some online sources, variants of this laptop manage about 7 to 10 hours, so if you need a super long battery life, you might be better off with something like a MacBook Air. So should you buy it? If you’re not going to be doing anything super intensive, but can’t stand underpowered and slow budget laptops then this could be the ideal laptop for you. The £100 discount makes it even more appealing! LG gram Book 15U50T: £599.99 (Amazon UK) / RRP £699.99 This Amazon deal is U.K. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Totally different vehicles. Uber has partnered with Waymo for level 5 autonomous vehicles. Waymo has completed 10 million trips and to date, there have been 696 accidents in 4 years and of those 16 of them appear to have been due to an error by the car. In total airbags have only been deployed 38 times. The technology should always be under review and continued to be improved on, but this is a totally different animal to Tesla FSD PS. no I don't work for them etc. I am an analyst for a market intelligence firm and we have a lot of interest from clients looking at the connected car space for advertising etc. so I have studied them
    • Just seems ridiculous that my 2019 imac is no longer getting the latest macOS. Nowadays a 6 year old PC is still a fairly powerful computer. It could easily run the new OS. I also have a 2015 macbook pro with a 4th gen Intel cpu. Its running sequoia (via OCLP) and can still cope not too bad. My imac is way more powerful. Really puts me off ever buying a mac again, with such short support. Open Core legacy again for me then.
    • But it's not full self driving it's level 2 autonomy. Audi, BMW and Mercedes all have level 3 and make far less noise about it
