[Solved] I'm In a Big Trouble
 

I'm Steam user (Steam Profile) so I have approximately all Half-Life products.
The problem is that when I run a Half-Life 1 game I get a Kernel error resulting in a blue screen crash.

I got an outdated version of Counter-Strike (CD installation bought from a website) and I can still join non-Steam servers. This version of Counter-Strike won't cause any problems regarding my system.

I'm testing my plugins and work locally (on a local server created by hl.exe process).

Is that a problem of using this product while in-trouble with the newest version?
What do US/ EU regulations say?

Thanks for understanding.

But are new plugins compatible with the old engine?

Does this only happen with HL1 games?

Re: I'm In a Big Trouble
 

the windows' blue screen is generally caused by:

1. bad hardware (rare).
2. new imcompatible/corrupted hardware/software.
3. overflowing processes.
4. OS issues.

etc.. I opt for the #4, so just copy past your whole Valve directory (without unnecessary games) to another computer or reinstall your OS without formatting:
edit: about the title, it seems that you fell in love or that you became -snip-.

If you have powerful PC you could install some linux distribution (but not ubuntu:twisted:) to virtual box and play hl1 based games on it :bee:

Re: I'm In a Big Trouble
 

I'm a Windows user (Windows 8.1 Enterprise) and I get a blue screen crash while or after playing a Half-Life 1 game and only. I got 200+ games and Half-Life 1 games are the only ones causing this trouble.
Tested with Windows 7 Ultimate as well and it's the same problem.

Isn't that old.

It doesn't matter my PC I only accept playing games directly rendered by Direct3D and only. Can't accept playing through Remote Desktop, TeamViewer, DOSBox or VirtualBox.

Doesn't apply for me but I bet it's a hardware problem.

Kernel errors are linked to programs that don't use drivers correctly. That applies for Half-Life 1 games. It does nothing to do with the OS, generally.

Anyways, I'm awaiting a big update regarding Half-Life 1 engine so I can play that games.

Try this. It's definitely worth a try.

Re: I'm In a Big Trouble
 

it's only necessary if you lose your original drivers. get your drivers from the official manufacturer's website, nowhere else.

Probably the worst thing I have ever downloaded and used. It downloads the wrong drivers.
