I'm not going over every detail for fear of boring people. But I had problem with HL2 not getting passed the loading screen after you select to start a new game. It got half way through and I got 'failed to lock vertex buffer in CMeshDX8::LockVertexBuffer' every time or it would just hit an error and I'd get that 'End Now' window. I got it with CS:S too, but that kind of stopped, however I still have problems with it restarting my computer after 10-20 mins of play...
So I looked at forums to see if people had similar problems. I've re-installed twice and last night formated. I've only installed basics like Firefox, WinRAR etc... Tried it again. It got passed the loading screen and the game started.
However, I got off the train, saw a guy on a TV welcoming me to a city, sat there for a bit listening to what he had to say and then got crash, 'failed to lock vertex buffer in CMeshDX8::LockVertexBuffer'.
Anyone know what the deuce is going on? Whats that error message mean, and how to fix it? I read while browsing forums for solutions it's when you return to the desktop and there isn't enough memory... But that doesn't seem to be the problem at all. My firewall did switch me back to desktop to authorise the access, but I restarted the game afterwards. Even after a complete system restart and going straight into the game doesn't stop the error..
Also, just incese anyone has any suggestions, anyone know why CS:S is randomly restarting my computer?
Thanks.
Oh and if it helps I have:
Pentium D 3.40GHz, 1GB of RAM and a Geforce 7300se.
