Engine Error - Failed to lock vertex buffer in CMeshDX8::LockVertexBuffer

[skyler18]

So i've been having this problem lately and its really killing me now since I have a scrim in a couple hours on nuke... and this is the only map it happens on. So i'm playing away and after about 10-20 mins cs crashes and this message pops up. Followed by the error report thing and the xfire crashing stuff etc etc. When I set my dxlevel to 70 all is good, unfortunately for scrimming zblock doesn't allow any dxlevel under 80... any suggestions? I can get back on the game fine but as soon as i join i can play for about 5-10 mins and it happens again...

Well I've had the same error. I overclocked my video card a little and now it doesn't do it anymore. Same goes for my friend who I recommended this to.

Also, I set -gl in my set launch options because my card is Nvidia. If your card is ATi set -d3d

Good luck.

BTW, I have my own thread that I posted about this 1 month ago. I'm the only one who responded to it =/
