It's done updating, but when I try and run it I see the CT background and then it crashes to my desktop. :(
 
yep i get the same thing.
Engine Error
Invalid property: DT_BaseAnimating/m_flPoseParameter (array of datatables)
 
I can see the background for about 2 second then the game crash and I get this error:

Engine Error: Unable to set mode. This may be a known beta bug with antialiasing. We have reset your antialiasing settings. Please try runnin again.

I have Catalyst 4.9 on a Sapphire X800XT. All my Cat's setting are at default
 
I fixed the DT_BaseAnimating thing, just exit Steam, go into Steam\SteamApps\<your e-mail address here>\ and delete the "counter-strike source beta" folder. Then restart Steam and it will rebuild the folder from your cache. Now simply restart Steam and it works (well, it did here anyway).

Don't delete your cache (the .gcf files) or you'll have to download it all over again.
 
dammit, same problem here. Tried deleting the folder, but still after it loads I see that screen for a few seconds and then it crashes.
 
happend to me 2 after 6/8 tries of re lunching CS:S It started to lunch fine :p
 
Im not getting any kind of error messege, it just exits after about 5 secs. Anybody else getting this?

same thing
 
As stated before, Its because you havent downloaded the full update. CS SOURCE has only downloaded a part of the update, I did the same thing, than I went to monitor and saw it was only 92 percent done, and went to my steam folder and saw barely any CS SOURCE files

My update is complete. I checked my monitor when it got to 100%.
 
after each time it crashes, theres a new file called "Steam__95459__2004_8_19T3_18_17C7550.mdmp" in the counter-strike source beta folder
anyone know y?
 
ACQUIRED: 100%

Doesn't work. And yes, I noticed these files:

Steam__95459__2004_8_19T3_10_44C11062.mdmp
Steam__95459__2004_8_19T3_11_4C7015.mdmp
Steam__95459__2004_8_19T3_11_30C8093.mdmp
Steam__95459__2004_8_19T3_11_47C7031.mdmp
Steam__95459__2004_8_19T3_12_3C6703.mdmp
Steam__95459__2004_8_19T3_12_20C7781.mdmp
Steam__95459__2004_8_19T3_30_52C8859.mdmp

HELP PLEASE, I REALLY WANT TO PLAY THIS NICY GAME
 
ok if I run it in windowed mode i get this error.

The instruction at "0x241691d6" referenced memory at "0x00c25d80". The memory could not be "read".

To run in windowed mode
play game > css > properties > launch options > -window
make sure its " -window" with the space.
 
Ok, now I tried lowering my screen resolution to 800x600 and I get this error instead of the memory error

Unable to set mode. This may be known beta bug with antialiasing. We have reset your antialiasing settings. Please try running again.

you could try making a shortcut to it and adding
-console width 800 height 600
