Anyone else having problems loading the game? The game times out as soon as I try to open hl2. The splash screen is there but the menus/everything else won't load. Apparently, there have been tons of problems today. Over as the somethingawful forums, hundreds of people have been postng about weird geometry, having no textures, in game crashes, audio static, and perpetual lock ups. I can't even load the effing game right now.
I've got:

Win XP
Centrino 1.7 Ghz
ATI MOBILE radeon 9600 series
512 RAM

Any ideas? Its strange because no error messages appear. The game just doesn't load.

I would do an uninstall of HL2, your ati drivers, and then go back and put on the latest drivers for your ati card (the omega drivers are probably the best.

Then do a fresh install of Hl2


I've had one lock up tha was really bad (i was reduced to 1fps and tons of static)

However, new audio drivers for my Audigy card fixed that.
