Hi

I'm having problems since last CS:S source update, everytime I click find servers in CS:S and HL2:dm my game freezes and I have to restart pc. I can get the server list up by using steam but not in game, also pc crashes when I try to join a game by all seeing eye , the loading bar goes dark and then freezes. I have narrowed it down to Zone alarm as it works with this off. All exe files are allowed to access internet and I have never had to open ports before the last update.

I have followed the advice of Drkpwn3r by starting game in windowed mode and the game works!! Firewall doesnt ask for any access, so then turned it back to fullscreen and it crashes again, I'm confused lol

Any more help would be apreciated!

System specs

2800+ amd processor
