I know a lot of you play CS 1.6, so, I'm hoping for a solution to my problem.
Whenever I go into a server and after it's done precaching resources, CS crashes with looping sounds, leaving no error message.

I tried everything listed in that link. Nothing seems to work.
I'm not sure if this would help but, when I had Windows 2000, CS worked flawlessly, however, when I used Windows XP, then the game began to crash.
I was going to post a thread on their forums, but the registration process is a pain in the ass. Google was also no help.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
have you recently cleared your disk space if not do it
1. go start
2. programs
3. accesories
4. system tools
5. disk clean up
if that doesnt do it i dont know what will
or try to reinstalll it
Well, uh, I recommend reinstalling the game, and checking folder/file permissions (though it seems to be a problem with the OS installation configuration most likely) and if all else fails reinstall Windows.

I reinstalled many times.

Yeah, it's something with the OS installation. Boo.
But... I did a little more reseach and the root of the problem is SP2 and my sound card.
The solution is to remove SP2.
I found myself here: http://support.microsoft.com/KB/875350 (http://support.microsoft.com/KB/875350)
None of the solutions work.. SP2 doesn't show up in Add/Remove Programs [the other updates, do].
QuoteUse the hidden $NtServicePackUninstall$ folder
That folder isn't in my WINDOWS folder..
I think it's because I didn't install SP2 like most people, by getting an update from Windows Update. When I installed XP, the CD install SP2.
Any suggestions?
