    CSS Crashes

    So... just yesterday I started having this error. Basically what happens is after 30 seconds of play, the game freezes. Sometimes I can wait it out and it unfreezes after like a minute or so. But then it just freezes again a couple seconds later... Also, my microphone stopped working.

    I deleted clientregristry.blob, deleted the cstrike folder and reinstalled..

    Any suggestions?

    Do you have a Sound Blaster X-Fi sound card in your system?

    I have a Sound Blaster Audigy card, not sure if its the X-FI...
    Also: Just tried ArmA, and it freezes too. Last night when this first started I started having some sound errors also (Players mics not working, than a couple seconds later working)

    Nope. Just installed a game 'Titan Quest' like a week ago...

    Re: CSS Crashes

    Try updating your Audigy drivers to the latest version and see if that helps at all. Also, have you downloaded any of the recent Windows updates?

    BTW, how is Titan Quest?

    Re: CSS Crashes

    Sounds like something is hard crashing...

    You can always do the defrag, Anti Virus and Spyware removal stuff.... Clean registry...

    What about normal programs...Any of them freeze? If you have an ATI card you can always try and switch over to the OMEGA drivers....

    If you have a Windows restore point you can always try that as well...

    Be sure to update your video card drivers I use Omegadrivers.net he does a great job tweaking them for best performance.

    Re: CSS Crashes

    Glad it works again....still wondering what caused it...You said the only thing you loaded was the game Titan Quest? Was there any Direct X or any other add ons that could have affected it?

    Also I do agree about the Omega drivers...I have an old ATI X800 and CSS would load and crash every time with the official drivers...With the Omega Drivers installed I have no problems at all...
