CS:Source help

Everytime I start a server, it crashes to the desktop. I'm currently running with a geforce 4 mx 4200, 256 mb RAM and a 2.4 ghz p4. Anyone else running into these same issues?

EDIT: I also scored a 74.4 on the stress test. for the few seconds I was able to play, I had very little slow down. It a few seconds into the game when I have trouble.

Until they fix the unbearable lag issues, you don't need to worry about playing. TRUST ME... mwah:

geforce mx 4200 ? you mean mx 420 ? or ti 4200 ? (mx 420 = prob would not handle it).

The lag issues isn't a problem with the game, My half-life clan runs a 40 person server and at any given time the pings are all below 100. Most of the servers you see are people running servers off their computers.

Uh, no. I play on well known servers and even they give bad lag (by lag, it's
understood that I mean complete freezing - when you regain control, you're
most likely dead). A lot of people I know get the same issue. If you don't have
it, you're a very lucky guy...

If it's not too much to ask, slip me some IPs of servers you play on.

I have the same error, its very common if you loook at steam's forum. However there isn't a fix for it yet.

That's my clans CS:Source IP (Should be [I AM] Clan)

Me and My clanmates were also surprised, but trust me, it's the servers and not the game.

I've tried it again early this morning and haven't gotten the lag problem I
did last night. Even though there are still some minor issues, it's playable.

I want to say it, But I'm not going to biggrin:

It's been playing fine for me, no lag or anything. I get the odd crash now and then (especially when connecting to a server) but that's to be expected I guess.
