Game crashes when starting map....please help!


(dizzySequence) #1

Everytime I go to start a game it crashes as it starts loading the map and I end up back at the desktop. I haven’t had any problems with the game at all up until this week and now I can’t play it at all. The game ran great before and I have tried everything in the Known Issues/ Work Around thread. I thought maybe a bad driver update or install might have been the problem so I reinstalled windows and the game still crashes on map startup. I deleted and reinstalled the game and even checked the files cache after reinstalling it. I checked the firewall settings and it is correctly set. I don’t know what else to do. Does anyone have any idea what the problem may be? I really enjoy the game and want to play but right now I can’t. Any help would be greatly appreciated. All my other Steam games run well with no problems at all. Like I said before it ran great on my machine until this week.
